Resharper does not highlight unused methods, variables, fields

Hello Thomas!

Could you please provide screenshot demonstrating the specified behavior?

Is it reproduced for newly created solution?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, for sure..

Please see the screenshot below: unused variables, methods, arguments of methods, unnecessary qualifiers

All those were shown highlighted grey on my old laptop (Font Color grey). 

No, it is an old solution that i opened now on my new laptop, so i did not change anything on the solution / project settings.
Or do you mean, that i should create a new solution for verification?

Hello Tom!

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, I've meant if you could reproduce the problem on newly created solution.

What Alt+Enter menu offers you for the unused method/variable? What does tooltip say when you hover over the unused method/variable?

Thank you.

Hello Angelina,

I can reproduce it on a newly created solution.

Tooltip unused Variable:

Alt+Enter unused Variable:

ToolTip unused Method:

 Alt+Enter unused Variable:

I hope it has nothing todo with installing Microsoft PowerTools?

Hello Thomas!

Thank you for the provided info.

Could you please check if ReSharper | Options | Code Inspection | Settings | Color Identifiers is enabled.

Also please provide screenshot of Tools | Options | Environment | Fonts and Colors demonstrating ReSharper Dead Code entry.
Thank you.

Hello Angelina,

oooh great.. That was the reason... The Fonts and Colors for Dead Code entry was set to black, i changed it to Gray and ... tadaaa...

now just the unused field is underwaved but not gray... Is there a special color setting for unused fields?? i looked into the fonts and colors settings, but i did not find something..

Thank you.

Hello Thomas!

Sorry for delay in responding.

Could you please specify what warning is shown for this underlined field?

Thank you.

Hey Angelina,

no Problem.. Nice to hear from you now! :-)

Here you are:

In meanwhile another question popped up concerning colering..

When I click on a word in the texteditor automatically all words that are in the current page are marked

If I then for example mark the word Monitor within the _scriptMonitorRequests all words "Monitor" are marked violet and additional the one-click coloured words from before are marked as grey:

The originally marked word Monitor that I like to Edit, Replace, Cut,... is for me not really visible, because it is nearly the same color...

2 questions:

- Can I disable the "one-click" colouring feature and if yes which Color property is this?
- Can I change the color of the original selceted Word so that there is a difference in color between one-click selection and marking? And if yes which Color property is that?

PS: I don't know if those are Resharper or VisualStudio features, so please excuse if those are Visual Studio settings..

Thank you in advance
