In notepad++ there is a function to highlight specific parts of code with a background-color. This is very usefull when the code grows up. Is there anything equal for Visual Studio (using the community-version here).

Here's the function of notepad++:

Would be seriously very handy having this kind of highlighting possible in Visual Studio. Google wasnt a help so far. I mean, instead of searching for code 10% of the time I could better invest it into coding itself.

Thanks very much!

  • Dude. This is only highlighting the line according the caret. I want to highlight code persistent. So highlighting -> switching to somewhere else -> coming back and finding my highlighted text. – C4d Aug 27 '15 at 08:54
