SSMS status bar color bug


I tried to change the color of my status bar in ssms 2012 depending on the connection to registered servers. I registered the servers, checked "Use custom color:" in the connection properties and chose a color.

Now when I open a new query editor window, the color changes for something about half a second but then switches back to the default Khaki. Has anyone encountered the same problem? Additional information:

  • I had installed the trial version of SSMS Tools and uninstalled it after the trial period.
  • I now use the tools: ApexSQL Complete, Refactor and Search.
  • I use ssms via runas with another user and windows authentification for the connection.

Thanks in advance


Solution

  • Its because ApexSQL Complete or another of they tool. It just happen to me, I installed Complete and Refactor and the Color for all my connections is rolled back to the default color.
