            Bug ID: 436320
           Summary: Highlighted text has dark grey background regardless
                    font color.
           Product: konsole
           Version: 21.04.0
          Platform: Slackware Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: pauloctba1 at hotmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
In konsole version 21.04.0, when highlight text with mouse left-button, the
font color remains the same, and highlighted background is dark grey.

If you change the color scheme to 'Black on White' and print some text in cyan
[code]echo -e '\e[36;1mtext\e[m'[/code] (or yellow, 33 instead 36), there is no
difference between non-highlighted and highlighted text. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a text with mouse in konsole.
2. The font color remains the same and background is dark grey (or transparent
if the background color is white).

OBSERVED RESULT
It is very difficult to see what is highlighted.

EXPECTED RESULT
Would be better if highlighted text be the same as the previous konsole version
20.12.3, in reverse colors, e.g. white text highlighted becomes background
color text with white background,
green text becomes background color text with green background, and so on.
