Menu
Go to 'Style Configurator' pop up, in your selected theme (ie/ Choco), in language choose 'Global Styles' then in style choose 'Selected text color'. Here you can change the 'Background color' value to one that suits you.
@o'rety ctrl + w is for highlighting only, and it is contextual. To highlight a whole line will be many presses of ctr + w - just to get the line highlighted. There is a shortcut called "Select Line at Caret" - interestingly, it has no value by default.
The one you are after are probably in General -> Editors -> Text Editors ===> Then Appearance Color options -> Current line highlight & Selection background
Here you go : In Eclipse: go to Windows -> preference-> General -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Annotations -> Occurrences
In Eclipse Helios : General->Editors->Text Editors : Appearance color options. I always use type filter box in preference widows to check settings.
Eclipse Neon: Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors - Appearance Color Options / Selection Background Color
