title: Turn off Visual Studio 2013 PreProcessor Graying Out C#?
body: <p>When I put code inside an #if STATEMENT block in C#, Visual Studio grays out the entire block, ruining syntax highlighting, Find All References... and all those great Visual Studio features.  </p>
  
  <p>Is there a way I can disable this graying out of code or are pre-processor statements to confusing for Visual Studio?</p>
  
  <p>I looked at some other posts: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15383086/how-to-get-visual-studio-2012-to-grey-out-ifdef-instead-of-dimming-it">How to get Visual Studio 2012 to grey out ifdef instead of dimming it</a>

  <p>But these are for older versions of Visual Studio and C++ rather than C# and I couldn't find a similar setting in my Text Editor Options.</p>
