Events could be made easily highlighted when an event is attached. But even now you can easily spot the attached events - they have different value than <none>. The code properties are a bit special, some of them don't have a default state (like variable modifiers or variable name). These make no sense to be highlighted. We could possibly highlight the properties containing some custom code. |
If you change the properties of a component there are three sections accessible via togglebuttons: Properties, Events and Code. Customizations made in the "Properties" section are highlighted by painting the property key in bold. This is a nice feature; it is instantly visible where you made some changes. The problem is that in the other sections ("Events" and "Code") there same highlighting mechanism is missing.
