Show current line (during horizontal scrolling)

The current field is useful when I use left/right keys, but during scrolling I don't know what is the current line, if the current field is out of screen.
Maybe TGF could use a special color or some flags to show the current line.

The current filename is shown at the status bar if that helps, you can also press F6 to highlight the current line or use the quick view panel to display more info

Because I want to write in the current line into the comment field, for example (and don't want to identify the wanted line watching the displayed values in other places on the screen), only the right/left key is a good solution for me now.

Unfortunately I usually forget to deselect the row mode with F6, and the next update only updates the current line(s), so I don't use F6 to color the current line, only use it when I want to update the selected line(s).

I can make some enhancements and add some options to highlight the current row, current cell edited and add a focus rectangle.
Attaching a sample screenshot to see if this helps

Now the current row color works over the row mode color (background), and only the foreground character color is different, i.e. black normally, white in row mode.

It would be great if the row mode color would work as before, or TGF could make this optional.

The row mode color is (white on) blue in my case, by default, as I remember.
