This article was previously published under Q125779 SUMMARY
In Visual C++ version 2.x, the default color for text modified by the
ClassWizard is black print on a white background; in Visual C++ version
4.0, the default color is dark gray print on a white background. Visual C++
is aware of the code that the ClassWizard modifies and can highlight these
changes for you using a different color. This makes the new modifications
very obvious and easy to find.
To set a new text color for ClassWizard-modified code using Visual C++ 2.x,
do the following:
- Choose Options from the Tools menu.
- Select the Colors Tab in the Options dialog box.
- Select Wizard-Modified Code in the Set Colors For listbox.
- Define the colors for text and background.
To set a new text color for ClassWizard-modified code using Visual C++ 4.x
and later versions, do the following:
- Choose Options... from the Tools menu.
- Select the Format Tab in the Options dialog box.
- Select All Windows or Source Windows in the Category listbox.
- Select Wizard Code in the Colors listbox.
- Select the desired colors for text and background from the Foreground
and Background drop-down list boxes, respectively.
