Can you try
-
installing a different version of Draw.io? (Draw.io insiders / non-insiders)
-
installing a different version of VS Code?
I have used drawio many times on several laptops/desktop devices before. Today I tried using it on my main desktop for the first time in quite some time. I am no longer able to open a .drawio file. It does not matter whether I start a new one, rename it, close VS Code and restart. All I get is the standard/generic text style interface in VS Code.
Why does drawio no longer work in VS Code?
I have updated to the latest extension version (V1.6.2) and am running on Ubuntu 20.04 (fully up to date)
Amendment: If I go to the VS Code tab, right click and select "Reopen Editor with" and select Drawio, then it kicks it into life! why is this not automatically happening when I start/open a drawio file? This may well be a VS Code issue too, but it picks up Golang programs that I edit just fine in the same editor.
