Visual studio code, no distinction in compound and normal data types

No difference in compound data types and normal data types in color!

Hi! I’m watching tutorials on C++ basics and every time the devs make a new variable type that is normal it is light blue, but for me they are white

Next to this, Compound datatypes for the devs are green but for me they are also white.

does anyone know how to fix my theme or how to change it so that it is the same? because all variable types being white is definitely not ideal.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there!

I’m not sure if it’s the theme used in the lecture videos. But the theme I like to use is called eppz! Even though it’s intended for use with Unity I’ve found it works great for any project.

It is a C# theme though, I’m using C++. Is that a problem? or are the variable types universal?

Anyway, I’ll try it out and tell you how it went!

Thank you for your time!

Dear Tuomo,

I found the solution!
The Theme used in the example was “Dark+ (default dark)”

Thanks anyways for your time!

Kind regards,

Chris.

Glad you found the solution!

For the record, VSCode themes don’t care which programming language you use. So even though the one I suggested was for C# (and more specifically, Unity), it still works elsewhere.
