Enhanced Syntax Highlighting
Visual Studio editor classifier extension based on the async Roslyn APIs to highlighting C# and Visual Basic code.
There are syntax highlighting for:
- "Events"
- "Fields"
- "Fields (Constant)"
- "Fields (Inside Enums)"
- "Local Variables"
- "Methods"
- "Methods (Extension)"
- "Methods (Static)"
- "Namespaces"
- "Parameters" and
- "Properties".
Have a great idea for expanding this list? Excellent! Just write about it here. Perhaps it will be added to the next updates ;)
To change the syntax highlighting settings just go to "Tools" > "Options" > "Environment" > "Fonts and Colors" > "Text Editor", then scroll to properties starting with the prefix "User Tags - ...", change the colors to those you like, click "ok" and write code in a little more friendly environment ;)
The syntax highlighting options for:
- "Classes"
- "Delegates"
- "Enums"
- "Interfaces"
- "Modules"
- "Structures" and
- "Type Parameters"
are just below, they have the prefix "User Types - ..." and are built-in default.
At the moment there are some performance issues when editing abnormally large files.
If this is critical for you, do not use this extension until this issue is resolved. You can also accelerate this process. All the details are here.
I remember about this issue, and I want to fix and close it as soon as possible. However, at the moment I have a lot of other priorities.
We could solve this issue more quickly. You can join to the developer community as a collaborators and make your fixes to this extension, and I'll be glad to accept and merge them with the "master"-branch of the repository.
Hope for understanding. Regards.
