How to change the color of the "name"-variable behind #region

Question

I searched all around, but I can't find the option to change the color of "name" after #region in VS2012.

For example if I have the following code:

#region Test some code

CallSomeCode();

#endregion

How do I change the color of Test some code?

Answer 1

After looking at this and other posts on the Internet, this is what worked in VS 2015 for me:

#region and #endregion keywords: Preprocessor Keyword [immediately applied]

Text after the #region keyword: Preprocessor Text [immediately applied]

Collapsed region: Collapsed Text (Collapsed) [must restart Visual Studio]

Answer 2

In VS 2012 the following worked for me:

• To change color of #region / #endregion - set 'Preprocessor Keyword'
• To change the text after #region when collapsed- set 'Collapsed Text (Collapsed)'
• To change the text when expanded - set 'Plain Text', but beware this also changes ; ( [ etc

You may need to restart VS to take effect

Personally I wish there was two types of comments - one for disabling code, and one for explanatory remarks. They are two very different things but generally treated the same in most languages
