VS code minimap "location highlighting"
Of interest to some may be that v1.43 added three new colorCustomizations
that affect the minimap slider color, including opacity (last two digits in the settings:
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
"minimapSlider.background": "#ff000060",
"minimapSlider.hoverBackground": "#ff0000",
"minimapSlider.activeBackground": "#2f00ff50"
}
See https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/pull/90631 and https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-docs/blob/vnext/release-notes/v1_43.md#minimap-background-and-slider-colors
From the stable version 1.14 (June 2017) there is an option in settings.json
:
"editor.minimap.showSlider": "always"
It appears this is already being tracked in a feature request:
