Success at last. If you install the Productivity Power Tools addin (http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/d0d33361-18e2-46c0-8ff2-4adea1e34fef)

From version 10.0.10819.19 onwards you get a new option. Namely Colorized Parameter Help which allows you to customize the colors of the parameters and their types.

Excellent, now I can actually see the types of the parameters in the tooltips. Here is some description of the feature that can be found at the link above.

Colorized Parameter Help

This extension improves consistency with the editor by applying syntax highlighting to the contents of the Parameter Help window for C# &VB. Please note: Syntax highlighting colors can be customized using the display items prefixed with “Signature Help” in the “Fonts and Colors” menu.

Colorized Parameter Help

There are now specific Fonts & Colors settings to allow you to configure the display of items in Parameter Help. This will allow users with dark backgrounds to be able to customize these to readable.
