Is it possible for the IDE to highlight user code

[matt-crc]

Hello,

Is it possible to highlight USER CODE from CubeMX code generation?  For example, highlight everything between these types of comments:

/* USER CODE BEGIN PM */
/* USER CODE END PM */

In a similar way that #ifdef / #endif blocks are highlighted?

If not currently available, can it be added the the CubeMX CubeIDE wishlist?

thanks

Matthew

This can be done as Eclipse editor add-on. Eclipse is opensource project, a lot of add-ons are available in its "marketplace" (Help-> Eclipse marketplace). Anyone can make add-ons or sponsor development of whatever they need or want.

Same with VS Code - a lot of add-ons exist for it.

Indeed.

But this would be a useful add-on for ST to provide - as these sections are their thing, and key to properly using their auto-generated code.

It is the cause of quite a few problems seen here ...
