Faced problem while setting background color for any element in Visual Studio 2010 editor. Selection color doesn't override this background color. So then it's very inconvenient to work with selections in editor.

Case when only string literal is selected it's almost impossible to distinguish colors and see what part of string is selected.

Is there any possibility to fix the problem by changing some options? Or it's a Visual Studio bug?
