Any way to completely change how a code piece looks in editor?












0















I've done extensive search in VSCode's docs, and it seems that the answer is no, but I still hope it's possible.



I want to completely change how some code piece in editor looks, as if I had full access to it's HTML and CSS. For example, I want to change font, opacity, size, and even add custom <image>s or other elements. Is it possible? If no, what is the closest solution to my problem?

          This is not possible. The closest you can get is using the text decorator api.



          The other option is to build a completely custom editor/preview using the webview api.
