After doing some digging and trying other methods an issue I was experiencing with a delay in typing seems to be related to RelativeLineNumbers. Once disabled the delay was removed.
This is on a fresh install of VS 2013 with vsvim being the only other added extension on a simple MVC project with no source control.
Other attempted fixes included disabling the hardware acceleration.
A white background with a black line for RelativeLineNumbers looks weird. Default behavior should most likely be to use the background color set for Visual Studio.
In addition, it would be nice if it was configurable if the relative line numbers are to the right or left of the [+][-] code minimization controls.
Had this VS plugin installed for a while, and generally it's working fine. I just restarted VS though, and saw that the plugin repositioned itself in relation to the line normal, absolute line numbers, and also in relation to the default VS outlining expansion (see image below if you don't know what I mean).
.
This I find a little bit annoying; I was wondering if it would be a lot of work to make the position of the relative line numbers plugin configurable, in relation to the absolute line numbers and the outliner expansion?
I noticed a minor issue: If I scroll away from the line where the cursor is positioned, so it is no longer in view, then the relative line numbers no longer update. It's the same in VS2012 and VS2013.
The width of the relative line number column is dependent on the largest relative line number in the file: if the maximum relative line number is 95, then the column will be three-ish characters wide; if the maximum relative line number is 105, then the column will be four-ish characters wide. If the user scrolls so that the maximum relative line number crosses a power of ten, the maximum relative line number gains or loses a digit, the column changes width, and the entire source file jumps to the side by one character. This is rather disturbing visually.
I am using relative line numbers with Visual Studio 2013. The line number indicator shows up on the far left side of Visual Studio instead of next to the code. Sometimes, after several restarts of Visual Studio the line numbers will show up in the correct location next to the code. Is there any way to make this work so it will always show up next to the code?
By the way, this is a really great addition and makes working with vsvim even better.
