Override this theme
You can customize this theme or any other one.
Please follow the guide in the color theme documentation. This is handy for small tweaks to the theme without having to fork and maintain your own theme.
To override a specific theme only, use this model in your user settings :
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
"[Never be lost (Day)]": {
// your customization here
}
}
and
"editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
"[Never be lost (Day)]": {
// your customization here
}
}
Important settings
editor.occurrencesHighlight
controls whether the editor should highlight semantic symbol occurrences. If it is too distracting, I advise you to set it to false.
Note : there may be a bug in JSON files where when this setting is enabled, editor.selectionHighlightBackground
color is applied when no selection. Check this issue to track if it’s been fixed.
