matching parens color black ... on black, and spawn priority, and solition explorer attributes
How to change the effects of matching parens in the text editor? I use a black background, and the parens appear to be changed to black (from the nornal whote) when you type a right paren, and the both of them disappear completely. Very odd. Does anyone test this on non-default theme setups?
In related happenings, I find that some places the black (window) background is used (auto), but then the text foreground is also black (auto). That's not a good idea. Some places, many I'd say, don't let you alter the colors at all, so it's black on black.
On the same turf, how do I change the font, size, and colors of the Solution explorer? Not too long ago, I read that there was going to be a way to user-set the compiler spawn priority, since in all previous versions, once you started a build every other run app slowed to a crawl. I can't find any way to do this. Is there a way? -- Not quite right, at least, this is all I could find: Yan-Hong Huang[MSFT] Jul 4 2004, 10:03 pm show options

Hi Hannes,
Yes, the similar solution for VC 7.0 is in one of the replies in that post thread.

However, you may run it at your own risk since it is somewhat hacky as you said and there is no such setting in VS.NET yet. I will pass this
feedback to product group since I also feel this is a useful feature. :)
Thanks very much for participating the community.
Best regards,
