kind of a dumb question..
the default color of selected text (when dragging the mouse over text) is not to my liking (its almost invisible)
how can i change the default color?

You can set a style sheet:
QTextEdit { selection-background-color: darkblue }

You can use QWidget::setStyleSheet(). But for such a simple task I'd prefer using QPalette. Assuming textEdit is a pointer to your editor:
QPalette p = textEdit->palette();
p.setColor(QPalette::Highlight, QColor(/*what ever you want*/);
p.setColor(QPalette::HighlightedText, QColor(/*what ever you want*/);
textEdit->setPalette(p);
