Better Description for Setting: Markdown › Marp: Themes

[ludos1978]

The description in "Markdown › Marp: Themes"

is currently:
A list of URLs or local paths to additional theme CSS for Marp core and Marpit framework. The rule for paths is following Markdown: Styles.

what is missing:
the local path must be relative, it cannot be an absolute path. This is described in the documentation, but not in the vs-code plugin itself.

should be:
A list of URLs or local relative paths to additional theme CSS for Marp core and Marpit framework. The rule for paths is following Markdown: Styles.

Marp has no duplicated description because a linked VS Code built-in setting Markdown: Styles has already described about them. By clicking the hyperlink, user can see a detailed rule of paths.

A list of URLs or local paths to CSS style sheets to use from the Markdown preview. Relative paths are interpreted relative to the folder open in the Explorer. If there is no open folder, they are interpreted relative to the location of the Markdown file. All '' need to be written as '\'.

Having said that, making clear that the path is relative is better than the current description. A pull request is welcome 😃

It seems that a local path to theme CSS not only has to be relative, but also it cannot begin with ../ which refers to the parent directory.

It is known restriction by VS Code. Both of markdown.styles and markdown.marp.themes can load CSS only from the current workspace for security reasons.
