Any way to set color schemes and other options on per-file or per-project basis
-
I asked this about a year ago and got no response, and searching yielded nothing but my earlier question, but I'd still like to know... Is there any way to set up vs2005 so that the text editor will be different colors in different projects? In the early 1990's I used to do that on Macintosh Programmer's Workshop. When two similar projects are open simultaneously, it's easy to accidentally make changes to the wrong one. Having different colors for different projects would help avoid such accidents. Presently I use VS2005 for some projects and VBexp2005 for others, so some projects have a yellow background and others have light blue, but that doesn't help when there are multiple VS or VBex projects open simultaneously. Further, in some cases it would be helpful to have some files within a project colored distinctly (e.g. many projects have an 'obsolete.txt' file where I place code that no longer seems to be necessary, but which I want to keep around in case it's needed again; sometimes I mistakenly edit stuff in there, since some of it strongly resembles the current code). Incidentally, I was also wondering whether there's an easy way to exclude files from things like find/replace without totally excluding them from the project.
