Visual Studio 2017 tooltip color issue

Question

I am using the Color Theme Editor extension for Visual Studio 2017, and I'm having trouble changing the color of a particular section in the editor tooltips.

In the example below, I cannot figure out how to customize the bit with the white background - the method signature from the tooltip showing method overloads.

I have figured out how to customize pretty much everything else with the tooltips, except for that highlighted section. For example, Environment -> Tooltip will set the background of the entire tooltip (strangely enough the Environment -> Tooltip -> Background setting doesn't seem to do anything...).

Does anyone happen to know how to control the colors for the text highlighted in white in the example?

Answer 1

I get the same issue when I change the Tooltip text background with Color Theme Editor extension. And I have submit this issue to Q&A of Color Theme Editor extension for Visual Studio 2017.

Still a problem in Visual Studio Community 2019 v16.3.6; still the same solution (restarting) works.

Answer 3

It looks like that particular color is messed up when you change theme.

Restart Visual Studio and then the color should be OK.
