Marker Annotation for complete line [message #245919]

Hi,
I currently try to develop a plug-in for JDT.

I mark some parts of code as text markers. The markerAnnotationSpecification
used for this text paints the background with a special colour.
This works good but just the text gets or space left from the text gets
coloured.

But I want an other behaviour. If the code covers several lines, I also want
the right side coloured like if you make a text selection over several
lines.

I don't know, if this is possible for markers.
Currently I didn't find the way to do it.

Please give me a hint for the right approach.

Thanks for help.

This is not possible using markers.

There is none unless you use internal code to highlight the the lines in
the open Java editor(s).
