Sticky Scroll outlineModel?

[Mattwmaster58]

Stick Scroll is a VSCode feature

editor.stickyScroll.defaultModel controls how it behaves:

Defines the model to use for determining which lines to stick. If the outline model does not exist, it will fall back on the folding provider model which falls back on the indentation model. This order is respected in all three cases.

The default for the defaultModel is outlineModel, but in my experience this simply does not work, no lines are "stuck":

I found changing to foldingProviderModel or indendationModel to produce good result:

It seems like the "outline model" (whatever that is) may exist which prevents VSCode from falling back to the models that do function. Or perhaps VSCode is failing to fallback. It's difficult to tell.

In the meantime, I've been quite happy with this settings.json workaround:

  "[abl]": {
    "editor.stickyScroll.defaultModel": "foldingProviderModel"
  }

I feel like the outline model used to work (or at least, sometiems does). Just tried the foldingProviderModel and I think it might look nicer.

I've tested a couple projects, and the outlineModel worked for me. On classes, it only shows the class name and the current method:

Switching to foldingProviderModel also worked and showed extra nesting levels:

Interesting feature, but I won't change the default, and will leave that as a choice to the user.

Converted to discussion as that's not really an issue.
