Hey there!

line-width-indicator's Issues

[FEATURE]: Count comment line length

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I can't visualise when a line of a comment is longer than 80 characters (excluding indentation). If it's longer, then the line will be split up when I format the document.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice to have an option to enable a separate limit for comments without indentation.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I tried to set up rulers, but then I relealised that this is dependent on the indentation.

Additional context
Here's an example:

// 45678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890    0 characters left
public class Main {
    // 45678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890    0 characters left

Publish `lbragile.line-width-indicator` to Open VSX

Dear extension author,
Please publish this extension to the Open VSX marketplace.

Context

Unfortunately, as Microsoft prohibits usages of the Microsoft marketplace by any other products or redistribution of .vsix files from it, in order to use VS Code extensions in non-Microsoft products, we kindly ask that you take ownership of the VS Code extension namespace in Open VSX and publish this extension on Open VSX.

What is Open VSX? Why does it exist?

Open VSX is a vendor neutral alternative to the MS marketplace used by most other derivatives of VS Code like VSCodium, Gitpod, OpenVSCode, Theia-based IDEs, and so on.

You can read on about Open VSX at the Eclipse Foundation's Open VSX FAQ.

How can you publish to Open VSX?

The docs to publish an extension can be found here. This process is straightforward and shouldn't take too long. Essentially, you need an authentication token and to execute the ovsx publish command to publish your extension. There's also a doc explaining the whole process with an example GitHub Action workflow.

[FEATURE]: Color gradient according to how many chararcter left.

Just an aesthetic perspective feature request.

Like set two breakpoints with gradient enabled:

"LWI.breakpoints": [
        {
            "color": "rgb(0, 255, 0, 0.6)",
            "column": 80
            "gradient" : true,
        },
        {
            "color": "rgb(255, 0, 0, 0.6)",
            "column": 102,
            "gradient" : true,
        }
    ],

Then when count in the range, interpolate the color between green and red using character count.

[FEATURE]: opacity

Hello, can you add opacity to the letters? because currently it appears very strong and can be confused with the current theme of my vscode.
