For example, in the mapping transform table, it’s incredibly difficult to see which cell is selected for editing, as the selected cell highlight it a very slight shade different to the colour of the selected row.

Spot the selected cell for editing:

If you guessed the one on the left (congratulations), you would be correct:

Just for future reference, we can change it with UIManager using the key Table.focusCellHighlightBorder, at least in version 8.1.9

Here’s my sample to have a black border around the focused cell.
Ps: I don’t know what are the proper padding values.

from javax.swing import UIManager
from java.awt import Color
from javax.swing.border import LineBorder, CompoundBorder, EmptyBorder

lineColor = system.gui.color(0,0,0)
lineBorder = LineBorder(lineColor, 1)
paddingBorder = EmptyBorder(4,8,4,8)
compoundBorder = CompoundBorder(lineBorder, paddingBorder)
UIManager.put("Table.focusCellHighlightBorder", compoundBorder)
