Same issue.

• VSCode Version: 1.17.0
• OS Version: Windows 7 64 bit

One thing I can add is that when I open a file all the minus signs are visible, but as soon as I focus on the file (click anywhere in the code) they fade out, regardless of the settings.

This bug still seems to exist. Folding controls only show all the time when their corresponding section is collapsed. When the section is expanded, the "-" box disappears when the mouse is not over the gutter. See gif.

Yep, still happening.

Oh, sorry, you are right, this is still broken in 1.18. Fix on the way.

[maxtar]

Hi, version 1.18.1 still doesn't work. :(

[aeschli]

Yes, I know. Its fixed in November (1.19).
