How can I find the scopes for UI in VS Code?
20:12 04 May 2026

I've been making my own theme in a .json file,

and I've been having trouble finding out how to target different UI elements in the window in VS Code.

For example, I don't know what scope targets the "Changed Lines" highlight on the side of the code lines and >Developer: Inspect Editor Tokens and Scopes doesn't show scopes for UI since it's for the editor. I also can't find anything when trying to search up a way to find the UI elements.

Is there an app or website that lets me find the scope of everything (specifically UI) in VS Code?
