Syntax Colors and highlighting plsql code

I need some help for something I cannot figure out. I just downloaded SQL Developer and tried it out. So far it looks really good and does pretty much everything I need.
I'm using JDK1.6_13 on Windows Vista.
However, I can't figure out how the syntax highlighting works. First of all, our package sources are stored on the filesystem with extensions .pck and .bdy. We take these source files and then compile them to the database.
The first thing I've noticed is that if I launch SQL Developer and then open a .bdy file right away, it displays in black and white. No coloring of any sort...No shading of the comments and words like function, procedure, varchar2 are not colored. Actually, any subsequent file I open .bdy, .pck will not have any syntax highlighting either. However, if I open a compiled package from the database, it will open and have the proper highlighting for the comments and the words I mentioned previously. I thought that was weird how it could properly highlight compiled packages but not files on the filesystem.
After much playing around, I noticed that if I launch SQL Developer and then open a compiled package from the database right away, any .bdy or .pck file I open from the filesystem will now have syntax highlighting. That's weird.
Why is this?
My test scenarios are:
Scenario 1.
1. Launch Sql Developer
2. Open mypackage.bdy from filesystem.
Result: No Syntax Highlighting.
Scenario 2.
1. Launch sql developer
2. Open mypackage from database. Noticed that there is syntax highlighting.
3. Open mypackage.bdy from filesystem.
Result: Syntax Hightlighting
Scenario 3.
1. Launch sql developer
2. Open mypackage.bdy from filesystem. Noticed no syntax highlighting.
3. Open anotherpackage from database. Noticed syntax highlighting.
4. Close mypackage.bdy
5. ReOpen mypackage.bdy from filesystem. NOW THERE IS SYNTAX HIGHLIGHTING!!! WTF???
Result: MAXIMUM WEIRDNESS!!!
Am I missing something in the setup or something???
Thanks.

Unfortunately to et the patch level, yuu have to go into the Extensions tab and look at the version of SQL Developer Patch. For example I have 11.1.1.59.59

Thanks. I hope they get this fixed soon.
I also noticed that the code folding feature does not work with packages that exceed 10,000 lines or thereabouts.I've seen this reported before, but on the other hand 10000 lines is pretty long. This might be a memory issue. If you run SQLDeveloper from <sqldev>\sqldeveloper\bin\sqlldeveloper.exe it leaves a console open which may show errors.

  • Is there a chart/table showing colors and corresponding Hex codes?

    Hello all,
    I'm studying how to change the color properties on panel components programmatically, and I can find the property, but is there a chart or graph somewhere that shows for LabView the color and the corresponding hex code for it? I'm wanting to be able to look for a color I want, and find the hex code for it rather than just trying random number combinations.
    I'm guessing there is something out there like this, but I've not been able to find it yet....
    Thank you in advance,
    cayenne

    On your block diagram go to Graphics & Sound >> Picture Functions and select the Color Box Constant. When you click on the box it will bring up a color selector. You can use this to pick the colors that you want. If you really need the numbers, connect the Color Box Constant to a U32 indicator. It will tell you the number for the color that you picked (select the indicator's Display Format to be Hexadecimal and you can see the hex digits for the color you have selected).
    On the front panel you can select Numeric >> Framed Color Box to have the same box as a control.

  • In dreamweaver cs6 12.0, build 5842, there is no syntax coloring on main code view?

    In my dreamweaver CS6, why is there no syntax coloring showing on the main code view window on php or any files? It works in window>code inspector, but this does not have all the same functionality. ther is no preferences icon anywhere that I can see to turn this feature on or off? This used to work until just recently. Nothing on google, but the main basics. I tried checking preferences under syntax coloring and all is okay and shows color. I also reinstalled and restarted PC. I am on a macbook with retina display. on mountain lion with latest updates. CS6 is different than cs5 in menus. Please help soon!

    Thanks for the help. I didn't think the retina did, I just wanted to help clarify what I was working with. I tried changing the external editor also and that got the split design view working again, but still no code coloring gosh darnit.

  • Problem editing text color and page properties due to favicon link

    I recently added a link to a sites favicon using the link tag. Following advice on the net this was added beneath the HTML tag and before the HEAD tag. I was using a Dreamweaver template for the site and it updated all pages with the new link in the non-editable area above HEAD and just after the template declaration.
    This was fine, unitl the user went to edit the site. He found that he could no longer get to page properties as he got an error that no page properties existed in editable areas... although there was an editable region for the page title. Also text color and highlighting were now disabled.
    Moving the link tag into the head area has resolved the editing issue, but it seems a strange bug. Is there some way to add something between HTML and HEAD and have it appear before the InstanceBegin of the template?

    You can edit text in any PDF by using trial version but as for as my knowledge and limited experience with Adobe I could not find any text color option in Adobe Acrobat. But you can highlight text in Adobe Acrobat. If you want to change the text color in PDF, I would like to recommend some another software which allows you to change the color of text and is available for download here.
    Let me tell you how can change text color using this software. Open PDF file > go to "edit tab" > Click "edit" then highlight text to change the color. As you can see in the below screenshot.
    Free free to ask. Hope it helps you. Don't forget to come back to share your views.

  • Syntax coloring in code view not working in CS6

    I just got CS6 installed for Windows XP, first time using it, and the HTML syntax is no longer color coded like I was used to in CS5 and earlier.. I assume you would turn this on/off through View > Code View Options > Syntax Coloring, but when I try to select this, nothing happens and the option remains unchecked in the menu.
    It seems to be the only thing in the Code View Options menu that I cannot turn on/off, but it's not grayed out or turning up any error messages or anything...
    Any idea what's going on?

    I didn't have a previous version of Creative Suite before this, so nothing to clean off. It's a work PC that just got set up with CS6 for the first time - I wasn't able to find that cache file (the instructions are for CS5 and earlier), but since this started happening straight out of the box, I'm not sure the cache would be the problem?
    And no, the "Syntax Coloring" option is not greyed out - it's actually black, so looks like it SHOULD be selectable, but I click it and nothing happens, and it remains unchecked. That's the confusing thing.. no obvious hurdles to toggling that option...

  • 3.0EA1: syntax colors for reserved words and a shortcut for compile

    Hello,
    only two notes/questions:
    1. If syntax coloring is enabled, do you get your information about the words from V$RESERVED_WORDS? Is it possible for you to enhance these reserverd words (for example from a separate file) to take care of the following datatypes not defined in V$RESERVED_WORDS (especially the pl/sql-types)?:
    any types: anydata, anydataset, anytype
    xml types: uritype
    spatial types: sdo_geometry, sdo_georaster, ...
    media types: ordaudio, ordimage, ...
    pl/sql types: pls_integer, binary_integer, simple_integer, boolean
    2. Is it possible to get a shortcut for compiling? There are so many shortcuts defined, but when you write code you have to take the mouse and klick on the toolbar to compile/compile for debug (or do i miss the entry in the preferences?).
    Thank you
    Markus

    I forwarded this on the the correct developers they should reply here shortly.

  • Code syntax coloring/format toggle?

    OK...
    I am a super newb to Flash Builder, but I own 4.7.
    I have a MXML file that I found that I'm redoing to suit my needs.  I have the original open next to my version in case I screw something up I have referance.
    Wilst switching between them I made a "happy mistake".  Somehow I hit CTRL something something, and it reformatted my code with color syntax and some organization.
    See the difference?  I like the new coloring!
    I don't know what I did and i spent 3 hours f'n with preferances and settings all over the place and I cant recreate this!  What did I do and how do I do it again?
    Please please help!

    my syntax coloring went haywire and made everything pink. how do I fix this?
    If your syntax coloring is incorrect in DW, then usually it's because your syntax is incorrect. That's the purpose of syntax coloring. Start where the coloring is incorrect and go backwards until it is correct. The syntax error should be in that area.
    With that said, there are a few cases where DW does not recognize the syntax. If the syntax is correct, post a link to your page so that we can see it.

    Hi,
    you need to discuss with the basis team to increase the abap buffersize.
    there is a parameter in the transaction rz11.
    go to RZ11 and then wirte parameter as abap/buffersize
    check its value.
    if you increase it,   problem will be solved i guess.
    thanks

  • Sass scss code coloring and code hinting

    Cannot get Dreamweaver to treat .scss files as style sheets with CSS code coloring and code hinting?
    Have tried editing the MMDocumentTypes.xml file located in the /Applications/Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.5/Configuration/DocumentTypes folder, as recommended by other users having this issue.  Still no code coloring or code hinting.  I suspect there may be multiple MMDocumentTypes.xml files and I need to find the correct one?

  • Light colored text and highlighting is very difficult to see.

    Light colored text and highlighting is very difficult to see.  How can I make it darker or more pronounced?  It seems to get darker if I push the screen as far back as it goes.  MacBook 5.2 OSX 10.6.8

    A problem for many of us.
    You can change the highlight colour in System Preferences > Appearance
    For awkward choices of text colour, you can either zoom to see it larger (hold 'ctrl' and scroll forward), or reverse the colours by holding dwn the ctrl, opt and command keys and typing 8 (⌃⌥⌘8). The same key sequence will toggle it off again.
