I recently bought VA and I've tried to make it work with my shaders. The whole hlsl file doesn't have any syntax highlighting at all and navigation is very clunky and slow. This is with VS 17.12.0. I don't have HLSL Tools installed.

VA syntax highlighting with shader does work in VS2019 and VS2017, it's just 2022 that it seems to have quite some issues with. Any ideas or suggestions?

Reverting to 17.10 makes it work, it's versions after that are broken.

Apologies for this problem. Someone else reported this a couple of days ago, and I am seeing the same problem here. Visual Studio 2022 version 17.12.0 and above have changed something, which is stopping VA from applying syntax colouring to shader files.

VA colouring still works correctly in earlier versions of Visual Studio 2022, and earlier versions of the IDE. Having the shader tools doesn't make any difference to this problem for me.

Interesting that you are also seeing the performance problem. I haven't confirmed that here yet, but this was also reported, so it is good to get conformation of this side of the problem:
