Hello Doru, This feature does not exist on Text. TextAttributes I am aware of includes: underlined, italic, bold, narrow, struck out, indents, text color, fonts (fonts work poorly in some circumstances) and alignment properties. Additional things such as links and URL are there but I have never achieved to make them work. However, highlighting is available directly in PluggableTextMorph. If you inspect a NautilusWindow (open Nautilus, use Morph halo to inspect it), you can have in the iv model the packageTreeNautilusUI, then in the iv sourceCodeArea a PluggableTextMorphWithLimits. Then in the inspector you can do: highlights add: ((TextHighlight on: self) color: Color lightBlue; lineRange: (10 to: 30)) After moving once the window, you'll notice this result: [image: Images intégrées 1] So to have highlighting for your text I guess you'll have to dig in that direction ... This is directly implemented on the Morph and not on the Text so it may be a bit difficult to use. Regards. Clément 2014-09-01 9:41 GMT+02:00 Tudor Girba <tudor@tudorgirba.com>:
Sorry. I was not explicit enough.
We now have a way to set the TextColor of a text. I am looking for a way to do something like this:
aText addAttribute: TextBackgroundColor yellow
Is there something like this implemented for Text?
Cheers, Doru

Hi,
Does any of you know if there is a way to add a background color to a piece of text?
Cheers, Doru
