Vscode-project-manager: Support window.title via variable for project?

Created on 2 Mar 2017  路  4Comments  路  Source: alefragnani/vscode-project-manager

"projectManager.showProjectNameInStatusBar": true shows at the bottom of window. Status Bar is great! window title bar would be even better. Especially b/c Feb 2017 Release of VSCode - https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_10#_february-release-summary - enabled a config item - window.title - that gives much more flexibility to the title bar of window.

Is it possible to get a ${projectManager.Name} variable or similar that could be put into the window.title config?

depends on enhancement

Hi @Idealien ,

The _release notes_ doesn't say anything about _custom variables_, so at first sight, it doesn't seems to be possible. Unless the extension itself did _override_ the window.title attribute in workspace settings (the .vscode\settings.json file that VSCode creates).

I will ask the VSCode team, to see if they intend to support external variables, so I could _publish_ the _Project Name_ to be used in user/workspace settings

Hope this helps

Closing as VS Code team has closed the referenced issue.

It's coming up on the end of their "will not consider for 6 - 12 months" period.
Has anything changed in VS Code code landscape that this might be re-considered re-opened you think?

I believe they will re-consider it 馃憤
