Add Color List for the "Toggle Highlight of All Occurrences"

[alvolturbo]

Add Color List
Is is it possible to add preferred Colors List to make Toggle Highlight according to it?
If there is not enough item in the list, plugin could be used with random colors as it is for now.
Removing any color highlight could add item to the preferred list again.

Try https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/9511-multihighlight - it did not support plaintext when I made this feature.

thanks
i know this plugin but it highlights only full word, not exactly that pattern i have selected (but it has cyclic color switch what is good)

[alvolturbo]

is it possible to make live highlights for all instances of that pattern i have selected?
changing selection--changing other places with that highlighting

[krasa]

https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/201-browsewordatcaret does that but only for whole words, you could probabaly change that
and if you want to edit all highlighted places at once, then use Main Menu | Edit | Find | Select All Occurrences

[alvolturbo]

this is not what i mean...
any pattern with several words and any characters in that pattern very useful feature to compare code parts "on fly" (when highlight becomes not active)
but thanks in any case

yes, that's what I meant, this could do it https://github.com/minman/browse-word-at-caret/compare/master...krasa:custom?expand=1

great! good feature
can you advise of how to install your "custom brach update" to the current plugin "browse-word-at-caret"?

https://github.com/krasa/browse-word-at-caret/releases/download/3.0.5-custom/browse-word-at-caret.jar
You might want to get into plugin development. I commited some project files, so the the process should be similar to this: https://github.com/krasa/StringManipulation#how-to-build-and-run
