This is a VSCode extension that will highlight lines as you edit them, fading as you move away.\n\nJump between lines using `ctrl+alt+left` and `ctrl+alt+right`.\n\n![The extension in-action](https://github.com/Wattenberger/footsteps-vscode/blob/main/footsteps.gif?raw=true)\n\n## Extension Settings\n\nThis extension allows the following settings:\n\n- `footsteps.highlightColor`\n\n  Default: `\"rgb(153, 128, 250)\"`\n\n  The color of the highlighted trail (in rgb format). I'd recommend keeping this subtle - black (`rgb(0, 0, 0)`) if you have a dark theme and white (`rgb(255, 255, 255)`) if you have a light theme.\n\n- `footsteps.highlightColorMaxOpacity`\n\n  Default: `0.4`\n\n  The maximum opacity for line highlights (`0` - `1`) - higher number means a more opaque highlight.\n\n- `footsteps.doHighlightChanges`\n\n  Default: `true`\n\n  Whether or not to add line highlights. If this is `false`, it will still allow navigation between chunks.\n\n- `footsteps.doHighlightOnClick`\n\n  Default: `false`\n\n  Whether or not to add highlights when you click on a line. This is useful if you want to store a place while navigating around the code.\n\n- `footsteps.doHighlightCurrentlyFocusedChunk`\n\n  Default: `false`\n\n  Whether or not to highlight the actively focused chunk. It can be distracting to highlight the code you're actively working on, so this is off by default.\n\n- `footsteps.doHighlightEmptyLines`\n\n  Default: `true`\n\n  Whether or not to highlight changed lines that are empty. Some may find this distracting.\n\n- `footsteps.doHighlightInactiveEditors`\n\n  Default: `false`\n\n  Whether or not to highlight lines in inactive editors. For example, if you have two files open, and you're editing one, this will highlight the lines in the other file.\n\n- `footsteps.maxNumberOfChangesToRemember`\n\n  Default: `6`\n\n  The number of changes to save in history\n\n- `footsteps.maxNumberOfChangesToHighlight`\n\n  Default: `10`\n\n  The number of changes to highlight. A lower number drops off more quickly.\n\n- `footsteps.minDistanceFromCursorToHighlight`\n\n  Default: `3`\n\n  The minimum distance from the cursor to highlight a line. This is to prevent distracting highlights when you're actively working on a line.\n\n- `footsteps.clearChangesOnFileSave`\n\n  Default: false\n\n  Whether or not to clear changes in a file when you save it.\n\n## Commands\n\nThis extension doesn't have any default commands, to prevent from clashing with your setup. Bind your own keybindings to these commands:\n\n- `footsteps.skipBack`\n\n  Skip back in footsteps. Default: `ctrl+alt+left`\n\n- `footsteps.skipForwards`\n\n  Skip forwards in footsteps. Default: `ctrl+alt+right`\n\n- `footsteps.skipBackSameFile`\n\n  Skip back in footsteps (stay in the same file)\n\n- `footsteps.skipForwardsSameFile`\n\n  Skip forwards in footsteps (stay in the same file)\n\n- `footsteps.skipBackDifferentFile`\n\n  Skip back in footsteps (skip between files)\n\n- `footsteps.skipForwardsDifferentFile`\n\n  Skip forwards in footsteps (skip between files)\n\n- `footsteps.clearChangesWithinFile`\n\n  Clear all changes within file (useful when you've edited the whole file)\n\n- `footsteps.onClearProjectChanges`\n\n  Clear all changes within project\n\n- `footsteps.toggleHighlightingLines`\n\n  Toggle the `footsteps.doHighlightChanges` setting: whether or not we are highlighting lines\n\n## 🤝 How to Contribute\n\nI'd love suggestions on how to improve the extension (feature requests) or code suggestions.\n\n## 📝 License\n\nLicensed under the MIT License.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FWattenberger%2Ffootsteps-vscode","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2FWattenberger%2Ffootsteps-vscode","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FWattenberger%2Ffootsteps-vscode/lists"}
