Does not seem to work with vs code 1.33

Hi,
It does not seem to work at all with vscode 1.33. No settings file is written, so colours dont change.

Already tried with only this extension installed and the behaviour is the same.

Kind regards,
Pedro

I am having the same issue. I thought I somehow messed up my settings, but I cleaned everything out, short of reinstalling VSCode entirely, and it's still broken.

my workaround for now is to just paste the following block into settings.json and then using a color picker extension, change the primary color on a color wheel for each setting:

{
	"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
		"activityBar.background": "#33131b",
		"titleBar.activeBackground": "#421925",
		"titleBar.activeForeground": "#fbf6f7",
		"editor.background": "#50242f04"
	}
}

Hi,
I understand, but then is fails the purpose of being random and automatic.

Kind regards,
Pedro

@azynheira thanks for letting me know. what OS are you using? and I assume it was working fine for you previously?

it was working for me, for maybe a day. but then a week or 2 ago it stopped working. my current vscode details, incuding os

ok thanks for this. should have this resolved this week

just published a revision. let me know if it's still not working for the latest vscode version for you?

awesome thanks for your help!

yeah i threw in some random spacing to make it easier to edit colors (using the "Color Highlight" extension) in the javascript files like so:

(assuming you're seeing that in user or workspace settings)

and thanks! :)
