A soft green light and dark theme family for VS Code.
Features
Light and dark variants
Manual mode by default, with optional scheduled and seasonal switching
System switching through your own native editor preferences
Quick theme toggle from the status bar
Respecting your preferences
Installing or starting the extension does not change your theme preferences by default.
Manual and system modes do not write any editor settings on startup or configuration changes.
The extension never changes window.autoDetectColorScheme,
workbench.preferredLightColorTheme, or workbench.preferredDarkColorTheme.
Manual (default): Select a theme using the editor's color theme picker, or use
the status-bar toggle. The toggle enters manual mode and changes only the current theme.
System: Leaves switching entirely to the editor. This mode does not enable
native auto-detection or select preferred themes for you. To follow your system
with this theme family, configure these settings yourself:
{
"window.autoDetectColorScheme": true,
"workbench.preferredLightColorTheme": "HBuilderX Soft Green Light",
"workbench.preferredDarkColorTheme": "HBuilderX Soft Green Dark"
}
Scheduled / Seasonal: Explicitly opt in to changing the current theme at
configured times or approximate seasonal sunrise/sunset times. These modes still
apply on startup when previously selected. They pause, with a warning, while
native auto-detection is enabled and resume when you disable it yourself.
The status-bar toggle also skips switching and shows a warning when native
auto-detection is enabled, rather than disabling it or overriding your preferred themes.
Upgrading from earlier versions
Earlier versions may have overwritten the three native settings listed above.
Your previous values were not backed up, so the extension cannot safely restore
them. Review them in Settings and choose your desired values. This update neither
resets nor overwrites them. Previously selected scheduled/seasonal modes remain
enabled; choose manual mode if you no longer want automatic switching.
