Hi

This is not what I find, Using 3.0.1 with Ubuntu 16.04.1.

Using the pull down arrow next to the highlight icon gives a palette of 
colours, selecting one gives a highlight of the selected colour. Clicking 
on "Custom color" gives a more complex method of selecting any colour. 
This turns highlighting on.

The only way that I have found to turn off highlighting is to click on the 
box "Clear background" The highlight icon appears to have no effect 
whatever.
