Change Error highlight style? #6

Closed ianizaguirre closed 5 years ago

ianizaguirre commented 5 years ago

Is it possible to make the errors look like sublime errors that have a border instead of highlighting the whole line? Reference image can be seen in this post: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/9209

Yes, that's a good idea. I will add this to the backlog and aim to have this in the 1.1.0 release.

Just letting you know that I figured out a way to do this, using the "Custom CSS Loader" extension.

So this was my end result:

vscode-squiggly-error-to-outline-error

I'm not sure how this could be implemented without depending on the CSS Loader extension or somehow hacking the style which VSCode uses for rendering the diagnostics. If anyone has any ideas, would be good to learn of them.

This is how I did it , maybe it will help you -> Post

Thanks @ianizaguirre - I had seen your post, it's a neat solution, however, as I mentioned, I think this requires using the CSS loader extension, and it looks like anyone using that extension needs to do some custom setup, so it doesn't seem like something I wanted to use.
