Allow user to disable WCO (Window controls overlay) #198766

Open illixion opened 9 months ago

illixion commented 9 months ago

I'm a maintainer of a popular extension for VSCode that intends to add transparency effects to the main VSCode window. My extension relies on the ability to add styles to the entire VSCode window, but PR #188793 removed the experimental setting to control WCO, which means that my extension can no longer apply transparency to window controls on Windows platforms.

WCO can also be buggy in certain situations, see #165454 and #160518 as examples.

Please add a configuration option to allow the user to override the default behavior and disable WCO. The relevant function where this check can be added is here: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/e8fcc1eaf6d738b3f0992f03c3d352c32d7da536/src/vs/platform/window/common/window.ts#L194-L205

Please... this annoys my OCD enough to make me want to roll back my VSC to version 1.80.
