It's been like this forever, but since you guys are spending a lot of time on SV right now (HUGE thanks BTW), I figured I'd add to the pile.
Every label or module instantance name is colored as if it were an undefined symbol. EG:
myModule
#(parameters list)
myModule_instanceName
(port list);
myModule_instanceName is colored red as "symbol not found" - as indicated by the popop when I hover over it.
Similarly, an always block with a label:
always_ff @(posedge videoSyncClk, negedge reset_n)
begin: frameSyncGenProc
........
end: frameSyncGenProc
frameSyncGenProc is colored "symbol not found"
It would be nice if SlickEdit could identify labels and color them accordingly.
Oh, and while I'm on the subject, SlickEdit could use a little refinement in identifying `define symbols when they're used.
In a module if I've made a `define of a symbol:
`define videoSourceWidth 11'd640
Then use it in a module:
registerCommand.writeData[0] = {`videoSourceWidth};
`videoSourceWidth is colored as a `define, but so is videoSourceWidth (without the`). In SV these are NOT the same symbol. Having the same color for both makes it really hard to find the missing ` .
Thanks,
Tim

Thanks for the suggestions. Glad you like some of the new SystemVerilog enhancements.
