Android - (Android Studio) - Create similar to TODO, but different COLOR AND NAME?

I found one post that seemed similar, but didn't fully address my question.

As the title suggests:

In Android Studio, how can I create a word/rule (similar to the way TODO works), which when typed, changes its color, and formatting?

Random Example: When I type // TEST:, it turns a bright green that is bold or italic.

PS: I don't want this to have anything to do with my TODO list.

In fact, I wanted it to do nothing at all, but if I could add it to a new list, that'd be even better!

Solution

  • Within Android Studio, click: File > Settings > Editor > TODO > Click the "+" Sign (on right).

    Use similar syntax as the TODO and FIXME rules that are already built-in, like: \btesting\b.*

    Double-click the left-most Icon to adjust Color-Schemes.
