So, without any Gambas instance, 
I started by moving all the theme files to another folder. 
I opened a Gambas project and tried other themes: Amber, Amethyst, Blues... No
change, no selection. 

 Then, in a text editor, I modified the last theme file I had created by
deleting the "Selection="#BFBFBF"" field. 
I imported this file into the theme, but still no selection. 

 It should be noted that in the Search ComboBox, the selection works normally. 
I've attached a screenshot. The background color of the selection is #5C5C5E
(Color.RGB(92, 92, 94, 0))! 

Choosing a white background also doesn't produce a selection!

 P.S.: The oldest theme files on my PC date back to June 21, 2018 (I've attached
one). 
They all contain a Selection section... 
The color #BFBFBF (Color.RGB(191, 191, 191, 0)) has nothing to do 
with the background color, which is #3C3C3F (Color.RGB(60, 60, 63, 0)).
