My organization has noticed that 'mentions' sometimes appear in blue, other times in red.
What do the different colors represent? I have not been able to find any documentation describing the differences.
For the AssignedTo field, any user that has been removed from TFS is marked in red. Looking at the HTML for a field in red for the mentions has mention-preview-me, which is what is applying the color: #da0a00 value. So it looks like in mentions the red is shown when you're the one being mentioned.

Makes it easier to distinguish separate queries.
You have eight queries there. I was able to determine that at a glance without having to drag a finger and count each one individually.
Here's the source. Colors are assigned on line 53, and alternate on line 72.
Colors are defined in this file.
I'm getting a bug in my stacked area implementation when a user filters to a specific line.
In the image linked below, you'll see we're tracking two trends. When I turn off the "Dialup" trend, the orange area should remain where it is. Instead, it moves up to fill the entire area. Likewise, if I were to turn off the orange "Broadband" trend, the green dialup area fills the entire area below it, rather than falling to the baseline as it should.
(stackoverflow will not allow me to post images yet.)
You can see the value in the tooltip remains accurate.
Could anyone provide some insight into what may be causing this? In case this may be a factor, the chart is generated based on a table of data using Highcharts.visualize().
I can see that you're using Highcharts 3.0.0. According to this, there was a bug in this version of Highcharts. If you upgrade Highcharts to the latest version, it should work as intended.
I'm trying to put together a LaTeX color box. The xcolor package \fcolorbox seem to be what I want, but I can't get the rendering quite correct. When I use
\fcolorbox{black}{red}{}
it renders a small box sunken to the bottom of the text line. The best I've managed to do is to fake it with a similar text color:
\fcolorbox{black}{red}{\textcolor{red}{--}}
However, I'm worried that this won't render correctly in all situations with defined colors. Is there a way I can declare an empty text box with full in-line text height? Is there another solution?
I'm basically looking for the code that produces the color boxes all through the document at ftp://ftp.dante.de/pub/tex/macros/latex/contrib/xcolor/xcolor.pdf. The boxes I'm referring to are used throughout, but the first instance is on page 4. Thanks.
The xcolor.dtx file in the same directory as the pdf contains the source for the package and the source for the documentation. The relevant bits from the source for the documentation:
\def\testclr#1#{\#testclr{#1}}
\def\#testclr#1#2{{\fboxsep\z#\fbox{\colorbox#1{#2}{\phantom{XX}}}}}
...
(Answer: 40\% \testclr{green} $+$ 60\% \testclr{yellow} $=$ \testclr{green!40!yellow}, e.g., |\color{green!40!yellow}|)
Basically, use \phantom{} on the contents of your color box, and make sure that at least one of the phantom characters is full-height.

In Latex, I've created a new command 'changedtext' to mark specifics parts in my document and make it appear blue:
\newcommand{\changedtext}[1]{\textcolor{blue}{#1} }
Is there any easy way to alter the command to have change bars appear next to the text in the resulting PDF?
If not possible, any other suggestion for a visual markup (other than change bars) that would be clear on a black & white printout would be useful as well.
Update: It might be of interest to readers of this question that some time ago I started using the latexdiff script to mark up changes between two versions. I use it in combination with SVN, which I think works great; if you split up your LaTeX files, you might want to look at this tex.stackexchange question though.
Use one of the changebar macro packages in your command.
One other way which would be very clear in B&W would be highlight (shows as gray background).
Use packages soul and color and define your highlight color:
\usepackage{soul}
\usepackage{color}
\definecolor{lightgray}{rgb}{.92,.92,.92}
\sethlcolor{lightgray}
Now you can use \hl{highlighted text} in text to highlight.
Some half-baked solution (not satisfactory) I just came up with myself, is the use of \marginpar to have some arbitrary indication in the margin, e.g.:
\newcommand{\changedtext}[1]{\textcolor{blue}{#1 \marginpar{r1}} }
will put the text 'r1' (from revision 1) in the margin.
However, when using this, the \changedtext command can not be used everywhere (e.g. in formulas, captions) because LateX will complain (in my case) about 'float(s) lost'.
Still,it might be useful to some people...
I saw this picture and now wondering if/how you can do this in Delphi. The highlighted/selected text shows two forms of formatting, i.e. highlight color and hash lines.

I've done something very similar recently in a bible application, also done in Delphi.
The user can select a single verse and single words of the selected verses. (But this feature is not released yet, so don't bother looking for it)
I used the web browser control from Microsoft and added my own kind of selection handling.
I've done the formatting by enclosing the relevant parts with span elements and changing their CSS style. When the selection gets removed, I also remove the enclosing elements.
The hard part was backing the "visual" selections with a selection data structure and handling all the selection events (clicking, shift-clicking, shift-ctrl-clicking, ...)
Embedding IE seems to be an easier way to do this as DR says, but you can also do this manually by drawing it all on a canvas, an easy way would be to create two bitmaps (one without a selection and another selected (could be as complicated as you like - dashed, colored, ... )), and you need to know the positions/rects of all your characters which would be somewhat difficult for long texts.
You basically show the unselected bitmap, and overlap the selected parts by portions of the second image.
You would also need to handle the selection manually by OnMouseDown, OnMouseMove, OnMouseUp...
