... syntax coloring the content of string pointers in the debug context windows is too much Really. String is string. No need to try to interpret this. Honestly.
VA X hooks the tooltip control and has a list of when it should and shouldn't color the contents of it. Obviously, the list is not correct. We've about a slew of cases for when to color and when not to color. We've missed some.
In the case of the former (string content) I am not talking about tooltips. Its the content of the context window which shows the variables in scope and their value.
I think we are not talking about the same: I mean the "Variabes view (Alt+4)" which shows the "Context of variables in the current scope", the view where you can switch between "Auto", "Local" and "This".
And filenames, well that is too low for VA to bother with
