Graphical Context Map in VSC: Be able to configure generation folder and generated file types
Hello! I'm using Context Mapper in Visual Studio Code in a documentation only project. I have some suggestions to improve the workflows with the extension to make it leaner and easier to use:
The graphical context map is always generated into the folder <projectRoot>/src-gen. It would help if this path is configurable in the settings when the extension is used in non-Java projects that have different folder structures.
Additionally, when generating the graphical context map the user has to select the file types (png, svg, dot with all preselected by default). Within a project the team usually decides which formats to use and does not want to select the file type every time the file is generated. Therefore it would help if the file types are configurable in the settings and that the selection dropdown only shows up if there is no specific configuration in the settings.
Thanks @dArignac for reporting your suggestions! I am aware that the usability in the extension can be improved and I like your ideas.
I hope we can do something here soon; time permitting :) PRs are of course always welcome as well...
