It sounds like you are missing a highlight definition for Visual. What does ":verbose hi Visual" tell you? Or possibly your .vimrc messes with terminal or terminal color definitions, and this is causing a problem. Possibly it is an addon, but these don't tend to screw up highlight in this way. It could be a colorscheme I suppose. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
