Add borders/outlines to entire matched block instead of each single line separately?

henrikvilhelmberglund opened this issue · comments

I love this extension!
I was wondering if it's possible to add borders/outlines to an entire block of multiple lines instead of each single line.
Right now I have a regex that matches for JS /* */ and adds a background color for the contents which looks something like this:
Code_10_09-54-03uOxIV9TyB8

but with borders enabled it looks like this:
Code_10_09-54-20d6uuViVGvH

Is there a way to get the CSS styling for the entire block instead of the separate lines? The regex I have is "(\\/\\*.*?\\*\\/)": {
with gs flags.

I don't think so. You should check what vscode allows for in terms of decoration, but I don't think this is possible

It seems like it's possible somehow (like in https://github.com/leodevbro/vscode-blockman) but probably not for this extension if the decorators are created line for line. Anyway, not a big issue!
