Remarks
COM Signature
From vsshell.idl:
HRESULT IVsFontAndColorDefaults::GetBaseCategory(
[out] GUID *pguidBase
);
If the Use Defaults button of the Fonts and Colors properties page is selected, settings are not automatically returning to their original default values (defined as the Category's implementation of the IVsFontAndColorDefaults interface).
Instead, users are prompted to choose the defaults defined for the original Category, or those defined for the Category returned by this method.
An example of this can be found in the Printer Category. A user selecting Use Defaults can choose to use the original defaults of the Printer Category or use the Text Editor Category as a default setting.
