I have turned on VAX syntax coloring in all possible ways.
std::string s = "int main() { int x = 0; // comment";

When debugging and hovering over this string variable, the tooltip is colorized!

Would you believe its part of our plan to make the world a better place, by bringing unexpected joy and happiness into people's lives?

Which IDE are you using? No code highlighting for me in VS2005.

VS 2003 .NET.
It only seems to happen when I copy some source code to the clipboard and then set a breakpoint in my clipboard application where I fetch the text using GetClipboardData:
OpenClipboard(hWnd);
HANDLE hData = GetClipboardData(CF_TEXT);
std::string s = (char*)GlobalLock(hData);

If I hover the mouse over 's', my source code gets colorized.

PS. It's really frustrating that you can't upload screenshots here...

For screen shots, various members use free photo hosts, I have used http://photobucket.com/ in the past. Alternatively if you send us the picture 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 will post the pictures to the thread for you.

This is a very simple forum, without a lot of fancy features, but it gets the job done - at least most of the time.

The colouring of tooltips, after a bit of fiddling around I was able to reproduce this. Very easy to reproduce with just the right bit of code:
