Thanks, I tested this out and it does work however my caret.line.back was #DDDDFF. You don't notice this because your colour has the same values for red green and blue but if you change one of them you realise that the colouration is actually not a background colour - its on top of the text. If you set the alpha to be 254 then you can't see the text through the "background highlight". The background highlight only comes to the foreground though, when the caret.line.back.alpha is set. It's a really odd bug and I'm not sure whether I've explained it well here... tell me if you don't get what I'm saying.

In fact, I've been using caret.line.back for some time now, and this never occurred. After some investigation, I found that it happens if you set caret.line.back but and not caret.line.back.alpha. So, here's a little workaround: use caret.line.back.alpha. I use the following: caret.line.back=#00000 caret.line.back.alpha=15 which gives me a very light grey. I think it would be #eeeeee. It's really useful, for example if you don't use the margin, because then bookmarks are shown by changing the line background (see bookmark.back) and if you don't use an alpha setting for the caret.line.back you don't see that the line is a bookmark when your caret is in it.
