Hello,

Where is the option which highlights all words with light gray color?
For instance, when cursor (text cursor, not mouse pointer) is over
word "myvariable" then all other words "myvariable" are highlighted.

I found in Environment -> Options -> Editor -> Display -> Colors ->
Highlight Current Word but seems does not work for me (but worked
before).

Thanks.

it use3d to be under "automatic features" in 0.9.28

Now it is in "Markup and Matches" (which is part of the Display node,
below colors)

The option you found changes the color, once you set the behaviour.

There is alos a key (default alt-m) which makes it stick to the
current word, even if you move the caret. (Alt-m again on the same
word, to unstick it; alt-m on another word, to stick it to another
word)

Thanks for fast reply during Christmas 

I found it all, node Markups & Matches, "Disable Timer for markup
Current Word" and others. And Alt+M also works well.  

It seems that amount of Lazarus options exceeds my brain capacity
