Syntax highlight based on semantic information in Designer - phase 1

Submitted by Kristof Szabados

Link to original bug (#568519)

Description

Currently the syntax highlight in the Designer is purely based on keywords matching on literals and regular expression matching on comments.

As we now have a semantic database, that is always up-to-date, it would be much better for the user if we could use the information from this database to enhance the visual presentation of source code.

For example display the names of constants with bold blue letters and the names of variables with light blue letters. Formal parameters could also use a different hue, to make pop more easily inside functions/altstep/testcases. etc...

Version: 7.1.0

Tasks:

• Implement preference page for configuring semantic highlighting styles
