brackets use the default background color instead of the current line color, which is kinda disturbing.

It's a Preferences setting (File/Preferences/Editor/Coloring). Operators can have their own colour setting.

...yes, but you can change it

However, watchout - it might crash the IDE: http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... 40#p347140

Not the background color.

and even if you could, the problem would remain the same.

yes - but it's only in case they're empty and the cursor is right behind it, so it's a kind of warning sign of potential missing parameters.
The moment there's an empty space behind them or when they include contents the whole expression including the brackets obtain the current line backgroundcolor.

So maybe get used to add an empty space behind them to avoid the 'warning highlight' or respectively the disturbance.

even if they are not empty, as soon as you move the cursor to the brackets and the highlighting kicks in, the default background color will be used. depending on your color scheme its more or less noticeable. i should have mentioned that in the first post, but i thought the pic was obvious enough.

its really funny though how people try to justify a tiny yet obvious cosmetic glitch. and i definitely wont change my coding habits.
