Visual Studio 2010 Themes, change Parameter Help background color

Recently I installed in Visual Studio 2010 the Power Tools Extension It's working great, however I have problems with my text coloring theme (Nightfall), and the extension's Colorized Parameter feature.

Since the theme text fore color is grey, when the Power Tools Extensions shows the Parameter Help tooltip using my text colors, it gets unreadable:

alt text

Is there a way to change Parameter Help background color?

For those who weren't able to get it to work with the accepted answer, I was able to fix this by adjusting the colors for the ToolTip item in Windows Color and Appearance.

Ok finally I´ve found the answer here:

Akil Burgess Hi,

You can customize the background color of the parameter help tooltip using the option at "Tools->Options->Environment->Fonts and Colors->Signature Help Tooltip Background". Modifying the background color should make this feature work better with your dark theme.

I hope this helps! AkilI hope this helps! Akil

I done it yesterday and now it looks great! alt text
