How to Highlight Text in the Visual Studio 2010 Editor

Question

 

Hi,

my name is Selma Ikiz and I am a PM for the New Code Editor in Visual Studio.

We have created a set of walkthroughs for the Visual Studio 10 release, please use these walkthroughs as a guide to familiarizing with this release. Given that this is the first release of Code Editor in Visual Studio, we are excited to hear your feedback. 

Walkthrough: How to Highlight Text in the Visual Studio 2010 Editor

You can add many different visual effects to the Visual Studio 2010 editor by creating Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF) components. This walkthrough shows how to highlight every occurrence of a string in a text file at the same time. For example, if a word occurs more than one time in a text file, and you position the cursor in one occurrence, every occurrence is highlighted.

We hope you find the walkthroughs useful and you can use the Connect website to report bugs.

If you have not downloaded or would like more information about the CTP, please visit http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=129231.  

You can find the walkthroughs  on the VPC disk: C:\users\Public\documents\CTPWalkthroughs\Visual Studio.

 
Thanks!
