[Bug] VSCode says overviewRulerColor should be a boolean
Describe the bug VSCode thinks overviewRulerColor should be a boolean. So, if you add the code that's used as an example in the extension's description, it will throw an error. Conversely, if you set it to a boolean, it won't.
To Reproduce Basically, follow the example given in the extension's description, i.e.:
- Open Setttings json
- Add to it:
"gremlins.characters": {
"000c" : {
"zeroWidth": true,
"description": "FORM FEED (FF)",
"overviewRulerColor": "rgba(255,127,80,1)",
}
}
VS Code will throw an error saying Incorrect type. Expected "boolean".
Expected behavior No errors should be thrown.
