Im switching code editors and trying to rebuild my color scheme from the previous one, from Sublime Text to PHP Storm.

What i can't find is: How to change the color of selected text/code - to be more specific the background of the selected text and the color of the font of the selected text?

And is there a way in PHPStorm to make the color for ID's and Classes different (for HTML)?
