Using MVC2005 with VAX. Problem is I use a black background and the program colors all fonts that are NOT belonging to any of the preset "groups" black. That means while i write a new variable for example i cannot see it!
In the IDE font and colour settings what colour have you set for "Identifier" and "Text"? Normally setting these two correctly for your black background is enough. You may need to restart the IDE for the changes to take effect.
yeah changing the "identifier" color did it. This is confusing though. Why isnt this color set with the others in VAX, especially since VAX changed this color from lightgrey to black when being installed...
The IDE font and colour settings are separate to the VA colour settings. Instead of trying to duplicate all of the IDE colour settings inside the VA options dialog we just keep the two sets largely separate.
Problems when changing colours, VA has to sneak around behind the IDE, and do things without its knowledge or permission to do the things it does, which sometimes causes problems. Unfortunately this is one of them, especially since generally speaking VA cannot read IDE settings until they have been saved out to disk.
Black background. Black fonts!
