Eclipse with Java wont display matching variables

Hey guy, I haven't let this get to me till now. My Eclipse used to show me where I used other global and local variables when I clicked on one of them. It doesn't anymore. I looked at General>Appearance>Colors and Fonts. In the Java folder I find something that looks like what I want. It's the Colored Labels - match highlight. The description says: The background color used to highlight matches when colored labels in Java views are enabled. I looked for that in the Java> How that's so weird I can't find it again as I'm writing this message. Anyway I guess that's what I'm looking for. Enabling the colored labels in Java. Where is that?

To access to your variable location: you have to click on your variable and maintain the "ctrl" hitted. for color: right click in your java class, go to "open with" then select java editor, if the color's problem persist go to Windows>preferences>Java>Editor ther click "restore default" or specify your editor, then click ok. Hope that my intervention helps you.
