Not showing whitespace when selecting over 501 lines.

[samal-rasmussen]

I see whitespace visualization when I select less than or equal to 501 lines, but as soon as I go over that the it disappears.

First I though that it was broken on select all (ctrl+a), but then I noticed that it worked in some files and not in others. Figured out that the difference was file size.

I am not sure if this started on update to 1.18, but I just noticed it today and I did the upgrade yesterday.

I tried reintalling WhiteViz and restarting vscode to no avail.

That's expectable. To make the extension much more responsive, there's a limit that will be used when you select more than specific threshold (the default value is 500). You can tweak the settings via whiteviz.maximumLimit. Feel free to open the issue again if this is not the case.

Ah I see that's documented under Contributions-Settings when you open the WhiteViz extension page in vscode. Thanks :)

Not important at all buuut I can definitely select line 1 up to line 501 and get whitespace visualization though. Shouldn't I expect it to only work from 1 to 500 when the limit is 500? (feel free to ignore)

It should visualize the whitespace up to 500 lines (assume the limit is 500). However, the way 500 is count would be like this (given that < is a beginning of the selection and > is the end).

This should highlight the whitespace...

Line 1  : <abcdef
Line 2  :  abcdef
Line ...:  abcdef
Line 499:  abcdef
Line 500:  abcdef>
Line 501:  abcdef

While this shouldn't...

Line 1  : <abcdef
Line 2  :  abcdef
Line ...:  abcdef
Line 499:  abcdef
Line 500:  abcdef
Line 501: >abcdef

The second of those two examples is giving me whitespace visualization.

Huh, that's new. I'll fix it then. Nice catch on this by the way, thanks.
