[RESOLVED] Syntax Highlighting Problem after 8.0 -> 9.x up.

Post by Modem Man »

Hi,
am I dumb, or is there a bug with the syntax colouring in 9.x when using the old-Borland-like "dark theme"?

please see my sample:
miscolouring.PNG
I have assigned bright magenta for integers, this was my choice. But I have no idea, where the dark magenta comes from because this source code was yesterday (using Codelite 8.0) yellow.

C++ Keyword: #FFFFFF on #000080 (white on navy blue)
Default: #337D99 on #000080 (sick dog's poop on navy blue)
Identifier: #FFFF00 on #000080 (yellow on navy blue)
Local Variables: #FFFFB9on #000080 (lighter yellow on navy blue)

Any Idea?

--- edit ---
This picture shows, how it was looking before CodeLite 9.x

--- edit once more: ---
Settings | Colours and Fonts ... | Customize Tab | C++ | Workspace tags
was it.
What does "Workspace tags" stands for?
Keyword, Identifier, Local Variable ... all this are things I can assign to things in my world.
But WTH is "Workspace tags"?

(sorry for misspellings, have a broken hand today)

it's the old term for "workspace classes, structs, enums etc". you can define what workspace will contain from settings/code completion/coloring
