When tooltip coloring is enabled I have serious problems with the debug tooltips for variables/members.
Check out those two shots: and
besides of showing different content - which by itself is already bad enough - I have a really bad flickering when tooltip coloring is enabled, looks like VS is updating the tooltip permanently and VAX is permanently overpainting it. This effect i noticed already when 1559 was released but wasnt really caring much about it at this time. Really, really bad when you have a large tooltip, possibly with some subclasses opened, etc.
Does the content of the tooltip change when you enable VA colouring of tooltips? I think that is what you are saying.
Does the string contain Unicode text? If so that might be the trigger for that. The flashing, I am seeing something, very subtle, on one machine, and I don't think I am seeing it on another machine.
