VC++ 6.0, cpp file.
Just upgraded to 1640 and all my string literals are crazy-colorized. I see that this is one of the few fixes in 1640 but I it doesn't seem to be working for me.

I doubt there is any point in sending the settings now. This reminds me of a very occasional problem we get after installing VA where VA's enhanced syntax colouring is not applied. A font and colour reset fixes that problem.
I have never been able to reproduce that problem on demand, and it seems to be very rare indeed, which is something.
Hopefully this will stay fixed for you. |

Well, I had found and read the original thread for case 16454 and tried some things:
First I set the "string" foreground font to black for "all windows". This resolved the issue. I couldn't reproduce any issues via text selection as in the original thread. I then set it back to "automatic". Issue remained resolved, even after IDE restart. I now can not get the issue to reproduce - which is good for me, but not so good for finding the root cause...
Perhaps the upgrade didn't initialized something to a known state - which I've since triggered? I believe I upgraded 1626->1640.
Let me know if you still would like me to upload settings (even though I can no longer reproduce it).

First can you try pressing the button:
VC6 tools menu -> Options -> Format tab -> Reset All button
does this make any difference?
If this does not help can you please export your VA and IDE settings and send them to me. The VA settings are exported via:
VA Options -> Performance -> Export Settings
For the VC6 settings, can you use regedit to export the following key and all of its children:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\DevStudio\\6.0\
Please submit the files via the form:
http://www.wholetomato.com/support/contact.asp
including this thread ID or URL in the description, so we can match it up. I can then import your settings here and see if I can reproduce the problem. |

*sigh* that looks just like case=16454, which is supposed to be fixed in VA 1640.
Can you please look in IDE Tools menu -> Options -> Format tab
With the category set to "source windows" what are foreground and background set to for "string" ?

Can you post a screen shot showing what you are seeing? It is possible you are seeing a different problem to the one fixed in VA 1640. |
