At the moment I'm evaluating the Keil5 ide. In Coocox the compiler will gray out the unused preprocessor code, is very handy. Can't find this option in Keil uvision 5, how do you guys do that? How can you read (and understand) the code if you don't know what's used or not.

From some previous threads we have seen on the subject, I think lots of people think the Keil tools can't be used if the user doesn't like the editor.
I normally have a favorite editor that I use both for Windows and Linux projects, and with multiple programming languages and multiple different compiler tool chains. It's just practical to keep down on the number of editors in use.
The editor in uV will auto-detect if files has changed so there are no problems having the same files open in more than one editor.
