There seems to be a missing style attribute on this line in the files supplied in the trial download I pulled down today:


<RegexPatternGroup TokenKey="IdentifierToken" PatternValue="(_ | {AlphaMacro})({WordMacro})*" />

If you set your background color of the window to black, and pump out some text with some simulated parameters like "//ea", then the "ea" part is not visible.

I added a style attribute and all was good with the world.

Hi Grant,

It should be using DefaultStyle if you don't specify one. So you could just change DefaultStyle's foreground color to white.

Ermm, sorry for sounding thick here but new to your API. How do I do that? I assumed there was something like that but couldnt find anything in the help file. I looked at the renderer methods, SyntaxEditor, Document, Selection...

I know its going to jump up and bit me when you tell me... ;-)

No problem. Each SyntaxLanguage has a HighlightingStyles collection. There always is a DefaultStyle in it.

So something like this:
language.HighlightingStyles["DefaultStyle"].ForeColor = Color.White;
