Text-Editor without comment coloring

I am using Quartus2 10.0 SP1. 

 

The embedded AHDL-text editor does not show the % delimited comments  

in the selected color. It seems to me that the editor parser ignores the % comments completly. Quartus2 releases before 10.0 did show the % comments in the selected color.  

The normal line comments are working fine. 

 

Does anybody else have the same problem or does anybody knows a way to fix it?
