I love this! I've been wanting this feature ever since VSCode started including it by default. I'm hoping for a highlight which more closely resembles what is in VSCode: something a little less flashy than "Highlight" but a little more than "Restrain". I've attached a picture of an example. Really I'd just love the additional border surrounding the scope, not the background highlight. Could this be added as a third option?

Just installed it and it is working great so far!

I should read the "What's new in Rain.." more often, love this feature. :-).

Feature is very cool!

Is there a way to make the border colors more transparent? The current ones are too distracting.

[izhangzhihao]

The latest release supported that, please have a try~
And BTW it will continue to enhance in the next release.

[kylegrieder]

Absolutely love this feature.

I would love to see it continue to enhance, specifically to include an option to make the borders more like vscode, meaning the border would only exist on the indentation line, and along the top part of the scope. another way to explain this would be to remove the bottom and right borders for each scope.

thanks for this update!

Hi @izhangzhihao,

I'm looking forward to this update.

thank you.

I tested Rainbow Brackets for a couple of weeks mostly on VueJS projects and overall I like it and it works well except that for Single File Components it highlights everything within <script></script>, when your cursor is anywhere within it, which is a bit annoying. I would much prefer it only highlighted the current scope. I'm not sure if it is easy to fix or not but once that is taken care of I think I am ready to purchase a lifetime license. Happy to give you more details about the above issue if you want.

An enhancement already made for better support of Vue and JSX(it's just the case you mentioned). But I'm still waiting for next release of the 2024.1 series. Maybe 1 or 2 weeks later I Can make it publicly available .

That's great! Is it possible to side load right now somehow? I can test it and give some feedback.
