How to Hide Comments in Dreamweaver cc 2017?

Question

Hi, I have been using Dreamweaver CS6 for a long time and now at my place of work they have updated to Dreamweaver cc 2017. In CS6 there was an option whereby you could hide comments and for example a comment like this one in a jsp file would show up as grey. Ex: <%-- This is a comment --%> .

In Dreamweaver cc 2017 the same comment now shows as <%-- This is a comment --%> .

This is very confusing as now it is the same color as <p> or other html code. Any one knows a way how to hide these comments or make them appear as grey.

or other html code. Any one knows a way how to hide these comments or make them appear as grey.

I have the same issue on my Dreamweaver CC 2017.

When using <%-- code --%> in a jsp file to hide some code, they are not being greyed out as they should be. I have checked the .cm-comment and the colour is grey.

Is there a way how to check what .cm-comment does represent? eg. //, /*, <!-- etc. to check if <% -- is included in this list.

Thanks
