We have two projects in C++. One project has a preprocessor definition of SUPER (among other things like WIN32, _DEBUG, etc...) the other does not have it. The 2 projects share most of their code. Code meant for one but not the other looks like this:
#if defined(SUPER)
<code>
#endif
Visual Assist grays out the #if def'ed code even though the active project has SUPER in its list of preprocessor definitions. How can I get it to see the #define and NOT gray out the code? Why does VA ignore the preprocessor definitions? |

The IDE should update the color when you make the appropriate project configuration active. I'm not sure if it takes a compile to kick in as well. |

Yes, rhummer you remember correctly 
This coloring is done by the IDE itself, even if you disable Visual Assist (VAssistX menu -> Enable/Disable Visual Assist X) |

IIRC that is not VA X graying out the code at least for VS2005 and above, as the IDE is doing that. Which the IDE drawing is very flaky. |
