Vim: : with visual region selected should not highlight command line text
Please thumbs-up 馃憤 this issue if it personally affects you! You can do this by clicking on the emoji-face on the top right of this post. Issues with more thumbs-up will be prioritized.
What did you do?
V to select the current line in visual mode.
: to show the vim command line.
What did you expect to happen?
Vim command line to be shown with '<,'> in it, and cursor to be located at the end of the line ready for me to enter the command I want to apply to the selected region.
What happened instead?
Vim command line was shown with '<,'> in it, but the whole of the text was selected so the next keypress I made caused it to be overwritten. This means I have to manually move the cursor to the end of the line to enter my command.
Technical details:
- VSCode Version: Version 1.11.0-insider (1.11.0-insider)
- VsCodeVim Version: 0.6.11
- OS: Mac OS 10.12.3

No worries. Github's issue page is so hard to manage that I just wait for @xconverge find the dupe most of the time. 馃槈

True, and the overall formatting is much more aesthetically pleasing.
