The information you provided is rather sparse. It seems like the "Heading 3" line is highlighted because your theme highlights the line the cursor is at?

Here are some pointers:

  • What is the value of the variable org-fontify-whole-heading-line? It should be set to t. Check its value with C-h v.
  • The faces of the org-headings should have a background configured. Customize them with M-x customize-appropos-faces and search for org-level. It should list 8 org-level faces that you can then customize.

UPDATE: When a heading is collapsed, it indeed doesn't fill in the full width of the line. The background is only filled in up to the three dots (known as the org-ellipsis). As far as I know, this is normal behaviour and can't be altered.

You'll notice that when a tag is added to a headline (which can be done with C-c C-c), collapsed headlines will be colored including the tag, which, depending on your settings, will be right aligned.
