Using Windows 7 default theme.
Because the tracklist uses alternate row colouring, if the focus moves away from the tracklist area it becomes hard to distinguish the selected tracks from the unselected tracks on odd numbered lines, because they are both the same colour grey. The selected files look slightly different but still very easy not to notice this slight difference.
This is not the case in XP.

In the options at "Display Grid Lines at File View" you can change from alternate row colouring to either gridlines or none using the tri-state check box. But I hope this can be fixed as I prefer the alternate row colouring.
