ClaudiaIDE

This extension change the background image of editor.

How to use (optional) 

You can configure the settings in the Visual Studio option page.

• background image support png, jpeg

ver 2.2.x

Current version decrease flickering, maybe. However Image fade interval option doesn't support in slideshow because sequelae by this update. And if you want to expand image to IDE, ClaudiaIDE is not require theme editor. ClaudiaIDE automaticaly set to transparent some backgrounds (e.g. text editor) when "expand to IDE" option is true. if you want to transparent in solution explorer and other some windows, you should use theme editor as yet.

And if you set to enable of "User hardware graphics acceleration if available", you can more decrease flickering, personally.

ver 2.1.0

Support versions changed as follows:

• Visual Studio 2017 (15.8 or later)
• Visual Studio 2019 (preview and RC)

Braking Changes

Visual Studio 2019 (16.1) extensions can support AsyncPackage only. ClaudiaIDE's this version change to AsyncPackage.

AsyncPackage can support Visual Studio 2015 or later. I decided move to forward and I don't support old Visual Studio versions (2017 15.8 or earlier). If you want to use this extension on old Visual Studio versions (2017 15.8 or earlier), you can use 1.28.6.

• If you already install 2.0.x to Visual Studio 2015 or Visual Studio 2017 (15.8 or ealier), you will uninstall 2.0.x and re-install 1.28.6 ClaudiaIDE.vsix.

Beta feature (ver 1.24 or later)

You can expand to IDE background. See also: readme
