I am trying to add a new highlighting scheme for CSS files but it is not working.

I do not see a built-in highlighting scheme for CSS file so I select the "Copy to user-defined" button and update the scheme name and extensions values to be CSS and restart SharpDevlop but I get no syntax highlighting in my CSS files.

Are there some steps I am missing or can you only create user defined highlighting scheme overrides for built-in schemes?

Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem. The File Mode for my CSS files was set to Default therefore it was not picking up my highlighting. I also noticed there is no CSS file in any of the categories when adding a new file to a project, so I need to create a text file and then rename it to a css file.
