I can't find how to change text color of Intellisense tooltip(?)
I have dark scheme but when I change "Signature Help - Text" to white there is no change in intellisense (still black text color)
At last! after hours of searching...
Here it is the setting:

There does not seem to be a setting in Tools>Options>Fonts and Colors to change the Message tab font for SQL Query error result.
Can't seem to change the message font.
Assumed it was the SQL Results - Text option in Fonts and Colors but that has no affect on the font size.
Background
Using my newly installed VS 2022, when I search within the text of my code (say using <Ctrl>+<F3> followed by <F3>), the entire text is background-highlighted in dark-blue, forming a jagged edge of lines. The jagged edged lines are due to the fact that the lines of my code are not all of same length. This is especially contrasted against the black background (where I have no code) in "Dark" mode.
The "Blue" mode has the same effect but the contrast of background-highlighted text and background with no text, is not so pronounced.
To end this highlighting I need to escape out of the search mode.
Question
How can I stop this background highlighting of the code when I search?
What I needed to do is change the background of the search in "Find Scope Highlight"
Select the menu: Tools.(Options...).Environment.(Fonts and Color).(Find Scope Highlight) and change the [Item background] to Black
I need a font that have the same len no matter if the line contains all 1111 or 8888.
Now I'm using the default VB.NET 2010 font and two lines with the same amount of characters have different len.
Any monospace font will do: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monospaced_font
I personally use Consolas because that is also the default font family used by Visual Studio in the code editor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consolas
The easiest way to set the font is via the form's designer: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.windows.forms.control.font
How can I change the highlighting color for matching parentheses / double quotes in Visual Studio 2013 (language VB.NET)?
In Tools -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors -> Display Items, I tried changing (and ran over all other options but can't seem to find a suiting one):
the colors for Brace Matching (Highlight)
the colors for Brace Matching (Rectangle)
It annoys me I can't see the characters when they are highlighted.
Edit: "Brace Matching (Highlight)" -> Item Background, greyed out, changing the foreground color on this option doesn't seem to change anything either:
Go to Tools -> Environment -> Fonts and Color -> Brace Matching and change the "Item Background"
With the dark theme Maroon works well.
I am using VB.net to create charts in Powerpoint and have a small problem: The customer wants the legend bigger than the original design. Is this possible with Interop?
I have a basically this structure:
Dim TargetChartas Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Chart
TargetChart.HasLegend=true
With TargetChart.Legend
.Position = Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.XlLegendPosition.xlLegendPositionTop
.Format.TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Bold = Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoCTrue
.Format.Line.Visible = Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoCTrue
End Width
But I am unable to find a width property - like any normal shape posess.
Do you have any Idea how to do this?
I added the excel tag because the charts are basically excel charts.
Argh: I need more tea. I just realized that Office 2010 HAS a width property, whereas 2007 does not. So I just have to check the powerpoint version... oh joy...
Powerpoint 2010 and later has a width property, so it works there. The width and left properties are somewhat weird, they seem to be relative to the chart. So expect some experimentation.
If you have to support Office 2007 you can check the application version: Chart.application.version 14.0 is Office 2010. I converted it to a number and check if it is greater than 14.
