Flash Develop Plugin: Highlight Selected

Highlight Selected

Notepad++ comes with a feature where if you double click a variable it will highlight all other instances of that variable in the open document. I wanted this feature in FD so i decided to write this plugin.

This plugin is very simple and borrows much of the code from the quick-find plugin.



I wrote this little plugin an an hour or so last night, i hope others find it useful too :)

  1. Hi I can't open it with visual Studio 2008, because there's an error saying, that this file is not in good directory and I;m missing some namespaces. Could you post your settings and in wchich directory do you have your plugins files? I want to change color to another, so If it is possible, please make a version with f.e. yellow higlight (for dark themes). Thnx :)
