Hi,
Would it be possible to add specific custom words to be highlighted?
For example, I want to highlight the words MARKER_START, MARKER_END which are "important" in my source code. Example:
void myfunction()
{
MARKER_START
printf(".....");
MARKER_END
}
I'd like to change the color for each different "important" word that I'm using in my source code.
Thanks for this great software! |

In addition to defining the keywords as macros or struct's, you can also tell the IDE to treat them as keywords, as explained here:

Hi,
Thanks for the hint. Yes, I think that I can be fine "cheating" the syntax colors defining those special words as Macros, structs, etc.
Thanks! |

How are these important words defined? Are these #define macros, or something else? Are these being coloured at all in your code? There are a couple of existing methods to get these coloured, but that is by telling VA that these marker strings are macros or functions, or some other known type. This would give them colour, but not a unique colour.
Approximately how many of these markers do you have, so how many different colours are you looking for? |
