Thanks Seth,
I'm on Mac only (my linux box hasn't been powered on since 5 years or
so). The code I touched should not look different depending on
platform. I guess any difference would rather be in how colors are
presented (considering the #ifdef MAC around default
selection-highlight color), but even in that case I strongly suspect
this is rather about the monitor rather than operating system!
Cheers

Hi,
Here comes two patches regarding the selection appearance.
Patch #1: Adds three new options in the settings dialog:
- Draw selected text items as box
Instead of drawing a stroked shadow behind the text, a rounded
rectangle is drawn according to the text boundary box.
- Draw selected child items
When disabled, only the main selected item is drawn with the selection
shadow, not the various fields and pin names etc. Default is enabled
(current behaviour)
- Fill selected shapes
Any selected shapes has their selection shadow filled, instead of just
drawing along the lines.
See attached screenshots for a demonstration of some various
combinations of these settings.
Patch #2: Tweaks the amount of zoom-level impact on the selection
shadow thickness, to get a more coherent look while zooming. You need
to try this in action to know if it's good (I think it is).
Cheers
