Line Vibrancy

Line Vibrancy helps you highlight the current line (or lines) in Visual Studio Code by dimming all others with a background overlay. This is especially useful during code sharing or screen recordings, making it easier for others to follow along.

Features

  • Current Line Highlight: Press Cmd+Alt+Z (or Ctrl+Shift+Z on Windows/Linux) to dim all lines except the current one.
  • Custom Overlay Background: Applies a configurable background to non-active lines to reduce visual noise.
  • Platform Support: Fully supported on macOS and Windows. Linux support may vary.

Platform Notes

  • macOS: Full support.
  • Windows: Fully supported on Windows 10/11.
