Presently the tooltip for changing the character background color is called 'Highlighting', which is a horrible tooltip when we compare it to the buttons next to it, 'Font Color' and 'Background Color'. So here is what is being used by other apps: MS Word 2003 : Highlight MS Word 2010 : Text Highlight Color WordPerfect X7 : Highlight Kingsoft/WPS : Highlight (toolbar) / Text Highlight Color (ribbon) Google Docs : Highlight Abiword : Highlight Calligra Words : Background Color I'd like to propose the use of 'Highlight Color'.
I feel the same. "Highlight Color" sounds better and more consistent.
