Flex Builder 3 Annoyance – code highlighting: How do you turn this thing off?!?!

[UPDATE]

Thanks to Holmes (comments below) I had just enough info to use the proper search string.  It is indeed called “mark occurrences”.  And for those having a hard time finding where in the IDE it resides, here is a screen shot for you:

Since a few folks who have been trying to use jwoLib in Flex 3 projects have reported some funky bugs with the component set, I figured I would try to get in there and work them out.

I remember the last time I got on FB3 I was highly annoyed to find that every time you type something, it tries to highlight the code for you to show you other instances within the document. I also remember not being the only one annoyed as someone had posted how one might disable this pain in the rear. I just can’t seem to find the post or other relevant info on how to turn it off. Nor can I seem to find the option in the preferences. Can someone please refresh my memory?

Thanks,
J
