MATLAB syntax highlighting color settings
You can customize the colors for syntax highlighting using the
matlab.colors settings. Access matlab.colors
settings using the root SettingsGroup object returned by the
settings function. For example, set the temporary value for the
color of comments to [173 235 255] (light blue).
s = settings; s.matlab.colors.CommentColor.TemporaryValue = [173 235 255]
For more information about settings, see Access and Modify Settings.
