PHPStorm: PHP Syntax Highlighting editing / adding rules, and Customization

Hey I was looking around online and couldn't find anything about how to modify the syntax highlighting rules. I am trying to add a rule for PHP variables inside of double quoted strings. In Aptana they have a rule where these variables are highlighted which I find extremely useful as I do a lot with PHP vars inside double quoted strings. This is similar to the <<

I would also like to be able to specify sets of rules, for instance on heredocs:

    <<<HTML
        <html>
           <div>$phpvar</div>
        </html>
    HTML

I want The html highlighted as HTML for specifically <<

Anyone know how to customized / edit the rules for the syntax highlighting?

Go into settings

File > Default Settings

There you can select how your code is formatted wrapped etc.

For colors go to:

Preferences > Editor (under IDE settings) > Colors & Fonts

There you can play around with colors, highlighting, background, fonts etc
