Description

how to set the color for texture2DRect or any redefined funcs? Like

define texLod textureLod

Currently you can't. The extension does not parse the code to understand what is a macro or a function, but has fixed lists for the reserved names of glsl, grouped into variables, functions and keywords. For these 3 groups you can change the color in the visual studio option menu under Environment -> Fonts and Colors -> Display Items with GLSL as prefix. Does this help you?

I know how to change colors) About lists - can I change them?

[danielscherzer]

Currently only during the compile-time of the extension. The list with reserved names are compiled with the extension code as resources.

[barnes14]

I thought as much) Can you tell me where in the code I can add my extensions?

[danielscherzer]

That depends on what exactly do you want as a result: Should macros be detected and colored if the substitute a function or do you want to add a user defined list of names that will be colored or something else?

[barnes14]

I think a custom list of extensions will be enough

[danielscherzer]

The new release includes a user key words option field. You can enter a space separated list of key words. These will be colored with the GLSL user key word color under the Fonts and Colors section.
