Vscode: Support similar font in explorer and editor views

Created on 5 Aug 2017  路  8Comments  路  Source: microsoft/vscode

Currently explorer uses a different font from editor and worse it is a poportional one making work with files and folders little bit confusing.
A setting like explorer.fontFamily is missing while editor.fontFamily exists.

IMO having at least an option for editor and explorer to share the same font family would be great.
I could prepare a PR for this feature if approved.

FYI the following patch in workbench,main.css does the trick for me but VSCODE complains about integrity

.folder-icon.explorer-item > a.label-name{color: white!important}
.file-icon.explorer-item > a.label-name{color: green!important}
.explorer-item > a.label-name{font-family: Consolas!important}
*duplicate feature-request file-explorer

I don't understand the choice why the font size in vscode explorer is hard fixe.
