How to change Preview / Highlight Color in El Capitan?

How can I change the highlight color in El Capitan. It is a very dark green now, making the underlying nearly unreadable.

iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

To change highlight colour you need to click on the arrow near the highlight pen on the upper right corner. It opens a menu and you can select a colour.
The operations described previously just change the background colour of selected test, it doesn't affect the highlighting.
