This extension displays Compiler errors, warnings and other messages in the line they occur.
there's an option page where the display of errors and warnings and other methods can be configured.
Options
The options page is hidden under the category "VarAdorner", which is a legacy name I have to work on.
You can specify if you want to see anything (including errors) (true/false), warnings and suggestions (true/false).
You will have to reopen already opened editor windows for changed settings to take effect.
TODOs
change options category to something fitting all my extensions
refine options with font settings
update settings so that no reopen is needed anymore
add an option to display icons in front of the error texts

1.6.1 a yellow bar sometimes appeared at initialization :NullReferenceException in GetTagGraphics - FIXED
1.6 a recent change in roslyn error tagging (by which the error text wasn't displayed but rather the ContainerElement classname) was handled. the full text is now displayed, including the error code. Please give feedback if you find are any missing conversions.
1.4 enabled the functionality for non-C# code, too. Please give feedback on whether you'd want a regex in the options to only enable the extension on specific files

1.2 Added option to disable warnings separately from suggestions. Colors are now bound to the VS settings (Tools/Options/Fonts and Colors/Text Editor/{Syntax Error / Warning}
