macOS dock icon is miniscule

[samuela]

If you zoom way, way in you can see that it's in between VirtualBox and Activity Monitor:

• VSCode Version: Version 1.30.0-insider (1.30.0-insider) c72cb12
• OS Version: macOS 10.14.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Launch VSCode.
2. Observe the dock icon.

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

Restarting the dock with killall Dock seems to have reset the icon to normal size. Still not sure how or why it ended up tiny in the first place.

That's... weird. Let us know if that happens again.

Happens to me too. Restarting VS Code does not help. killall Dock does.

Just happened to me on stable version. Lots of time could not figure out what it is. killall Dock have helped.

VSCode Version: 1.29.1
OS Version: macOS 10.14

This just happened to me, just after upgrading and restarting VS Code.

#63681 opened for this one.

I am also having this issue. I have:

• disabled all extensions
• ensured I am running the current stable build: 1.29.1
• removed all themes, am running the default Light (Visual Studio)
• removed all custom settings from settings.json
• quit the app and relaunched

I am running MacOS 10.14.1 (18B75)

See screenshot:

Anyone still seeing it, try killall Dock or restarting the mac.

[alistaircom]

Yes, killall Dock fixes it.

Here's hoping there will be a fix that doesn't include restarting your dock or your Mac to have an icon work.

Is there an open dupe for this @bpasero or @joaomoreno? It seems to have happened to several people. I also see #59578
