property SelectionColor: TColor;
Color drawn over the selected text rectangles. Defaults to clHighlight (the Windows system selection color, conventionally blue) so the experience matches every other Windows text-editing surface.
Independent from HighlightColor, which colors search-result highlights (default clYellow). The two overlays use different colors and different paint passes — an active search highlight and a live drag-selection can be visible on the same page simultaneously without color conflict.
