We pushed a new version 2.1 two days ago, can you try that and let me know how it looks? https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=dracula-theme.dracula

Hi @zenorocha,

I confirmed that it is using the latest version. Uninstalled and reinstalled just to be sure. Thanks!

EDIT: For the record yes it looks the same as the screenshot above.

same problem, after installing the latest version, most of the code is the same color in VS2022 and C++

I saw there was a new update out from a couple of days ago on the marketplace page and installed it but the issue with syntax highlighting in C++ remains. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help make progress on this. Thanks again for truly the best theme out there!

Been having the same issue with latest Dracula. Semantic highlighting doesn't work, initially thought it was VS2022's fault until i realized switching themes made it work. Hopefully it gets fixed soon

I retested with latest version of VS (17.3.3) and the latest available installer and everything appears to be working.

@hctym1995 can you retest after updating VS and reinstalling the theme?

Hi 👋🏻

I've been investigating, and unfortunately, I haven't come up with a solution. 😥

Both C/C++ languages don't have the tokens to be coloured appropriately in the IDE. And they depend on packages and extensions in both VS and VSCode.

To give context, this 🦇 Dracula theme for VS uses the VSCode theme as a base. We will clarify this in the Readme in a new Known Issues section.

Any questions, suggestions and contributions are welcome. Thank you so much for all the feedback and interest. 🧛🏻
