I would like to be able to use a custom image or color for the selection of suggested words. Currently it is an orange box.

You can already do this. If you make a skin, just replace /drawable/candidate_highlight.9.png with whatever you want

I have not been able to find a theme with a "candidate_highlight.9.png" file in the /drawable/ folder. What size should this file be? Do I need to reference it in the xml file?
Just to be clear, I am talking about the highlight of the suggested word when it is PRESSED. I know how to change the normal candidate highlight.

You can see the skin I made here:

No problem! In Skin.xml, don't forget to adjust the following or else the suggestion word might look funny when pressing:
Code: Select all
<candidates>
<colors>
<!-- Color of the highlighted candidate -->
<highlight>#FFFFFFFF</highlight>
</colors>
</candidates>
As you can see it changes the suggestion word color when it is pressed. I made it white as you can see in my thread.
