In the "Fonts and Colors" menu of Visual Assist X, after checking the "Enhanced Syntax Coloring" box we can set different colors for :
- Classes, structures and typedefs
- Variables
- Preprocessor macros
- Methods

And we can choose to display local symbols in bold, making possible to differentiate class members and local variables in a C++ method.

However, displaying local symbols in bold does not look nice, depeding on your font, variables can become illegible.
I would rather have local symbols in a different customizable color. Can you please add this option ?

Thanks in advance.

We are considering adding this option at some point:

case=58967

For now, I find that the font "Courier New" works well with local variables in bold.
