Description Max Sauer 2007-02-02 11:12:41 UTC 
All changes made inside Fonts&Colors tab require reopening of source file to
reflect changes. This used to work immediately.

Steps to reproduce:
-------------------
0) Open a j2se project and a java file
1) Invoke Tools|Options|Fonts&Colors
2) Change ie. Keyword Font and Color
=> No changes visible until the file is reopened.

Comment 1 Vitezslav Stejskal 2007-02-05 01:39:04 UTC 
I just tried that and it worked ok. Did you do anything special, fresh userdir,
...? There might be some problems with embeddings at the moment, but changes in
main languages should be reflected immediately.
Comment 2 Max Sauer 2007-02-05 09:28:58 UTC 
Looks like you're right, it is necessary to start with fresh userdir in order to
reproduce this. P2>P3.
Comment 3 Max Sauer 2007-02-22 13:35:48 UTC 
Back to P2. I happens also in older userdirs, but it's rather RANDOM than.
'Restore' requieres reopening every time (Try ie. change Java|Keyword FG Color,
confirm OD, and restore).

Switching of profiles also requires reopening of file.

Comment 7 Vitezslav Stejskal 2007-10-01 10:29:37 UTC 
Still not perfect, but works much better now. I know this can be annoying, but people don't change colors that often.
So, I'm making it P3.

Comment 13 Max Sauer 2008-11-13 10:35:57 UTC 
I think the handling of F&C would require some redesign in the future. I'll resolve all similar issues as LATER.
