Vscode: VSCode 1.43 messed up my theme color codes

[MariuzM]

The color codes for various JS names/object/var's and so on are different. The color style is different compared to previews version of VSCode.

For a split second when i open this new version colors look ok but then they change:

Bad colors

+1 to this

I was looking into this because the themes I built had whackiness going on, it's reading certain functions as variables now instead which is totally blocking my custom changes. There's nothing I can really change to address this either. So if we could go back to the old way that'd be cool, or maybe what I should do to migrate correctly?

Edit: One of the most obvious cases in my situation is that my coloring for variabels like const, and let are the same as my function colors now, and functions such as require or console.log show up as my colors I set for const and let.

I love the VSCode team you done amazing job, but lately i feel it's becoming like Microsoft that ships windows updates with full of bugs. VSCode team please do longer testing before shipping new version. I personally don't need most of these new features that you have apart from and hoping some performance improvements, so from my point please take more time to test your app.

Same here. Both on Ubuntu and Windows after the update.

+1 class names in general and when extending in class definition, require, class getters & setters and others seem to have wrong colors

Duplicate of #92308

[rebornix]

thank you all for feedback, it's caused by the newly introduced feature semantic syntax highlighting. Let's track this issue in https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/92308 and for now you can turn off this feature by changing below setting:

"editor.semanticHighlighting.enabled": false
