TaskVision

中文文档 | English

TaskVision highlights TODO-style tags in code comments and shows them in a tree view.

TaskVision Screenshot

[!IMPORTANT] TaskVision 2.0 uses a four-channel highlight model. Legacy type scope is deprecated for styling.

Quick Start

Add this to settings.json:

"taskvision.highlights.customHighlight": {
  "TODO": {
    "icon": "tasklist",
    "foreground": "#42A5F5",
    "scheme": "neon+glass",
    "colorType": "text",
    "glowType": "tag",
    "glassType": "whole-line",
    "fontType": "tag"
  },
  "FIXME": {
    "icon": "flame",
    "foreground": "#FF5252",
    "scheme": "neon+glass",
    "colorType": "text",
    "glowType": "tag",
    "glassType": "whole-line",
    "fontType": "tag"
  },
  "[ ]": {
    "icon": "issue-opened",
    "foreground": "#26C6DA",
    "scheme": "neon+glass",
    "colorType": "text",
    "glowType": "tag",
    "glassType": "whole-line",
    "fontType": "tag"
  },
  "[x]": {
    "icon": "issue-closed",
    "foreground": "#2E7D32",
    "scheme": "neon+glass",
    "colorType": "text",
    "glowType": "tag",
    "glassType": "whole-line",
    "fontType": "tag"
  },
  "[ x]": {
    "icon": "issue-closed",
    "foreground": "#2E7D32",
    "scheme": "neon+glass",
    "colorType": "text",
    "glowType": "tag",
    "glassType": "whole-line",
    "fontType": "tag"
  }
}

Four Channels

  • colorType: where text color applies.
  • glowType: where neon glow (text-shadow) applies.
  • glassType: where glass background applies.
  • fontType: where font style applies (fontWeight, fontStyle, textDecoration).

Supported scopes:

  • tag
  • text
  • tag-and-comment
  • text-and-comment
  • tag-and-subTag
  • line
  • whole-line
  • none

Scheme Semantics

  • scheme: "neon" enables glow preset parameters.
  • scheme: "glass" enables glass preset parameters.
  • scheme: "neon+glass" enables both.
  • scheme no longer controls scope.

Command Palette Tips

TaskVision: Customize Appearance now supports independent scope edits:

  • Set Color Scope (colorType)
  • Set Glow Scope (glowType)
  • Set Glass Scope (glassType)
  • Set Font Scope (fontType)

When a workspace is open, TaskVision writes appearance changes to Workspace settings first.

FAQ

Q: Why did command changes look ineffective? A: Workspace settings (.vscode/settings.json) override global user settings.

Q: Why is body text italic unexpectedly? A: Set fontType to tag so font styles affect only tags.

Q: How to get full-line glass + tag-only glow + colored body text? A: Use glassType: "whole-line", glowType: "tag", colorType: "text".
