Do you use the resource editor for setting up dialog boxes and such? That aspect seems
to work particularly badly in Visual C++. Is that the sort of thing you do by editing
text?
As it happens, I have managed to modify my settings to track text I've highlighted.
Bring up your msdev.jcf file in a text editor and put the following lines in your
[OSM] section:
UseCustomHighlight=1
CustomHighlightTextColor=255255255
CustomHighlightColor=0
If you don't have a [OSM] section, then create one.
Thanks for writing back. If we turn a few people loose on this thing, we may all
benefit.
