I think code would be more readable if it highlighted enums properties with a different color to class properties.

For VS2010 / VS2013 / VS2015 / VS2017 / VS2019:
- Tools->Options->Environment->Fonts and Colors:
- Show Settings For Text Editor
- Display Items: User Types (Enums)
- Change Item Foreground

You have to enable "Color identifiers" in ReSharper -> Options -> Code Inspection -> Settings
.
Then you can define the forground/background colors for Enum identifiers in Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors
(select "ReSharper Enum Identifier" in the "Display items" list.
Note: this is for VS 2010 / ReSharper 6.1.

This does work, but it tends to muck up my dark theme that I have. Tools->Options->Environment->Fonts and Colors: Display Items: User Types (Enums) seems to be the easiest way to do this. – superlogical Apr 18 '12 at 08:18

I somehow have reshaper playing nice with my dark theme w/ enum color, but that may have changed in 7.1. – katbyte Mar 22 '13 at 00:44
