Yes. Under Tools -> Options -> Panels -> Code Editor there is a highlighting option that allows you to customize the syntax highlighting for different code languages.

    Hi tristaanogre 

     

    Thanks for this. What I'm looking for is more so specific keyword highlighting. Take example this snippet in TestComplete

     

     

    I'm used to PyCharm, so it would be nice to see the distinction between keywords, like decorators with @classmethod, self, return, None etc

     

    This is what I see in PyCharm for instance.

     

     

    Maybe I didn't enable the right option?

        Hi,

         

        In my opinion thres no option to highlight only specific words like arguments in TestComplete IDE.
