auto import always uses relative (to the current file) module paths in presense of baseUri
See original GitHub issueback in a day it used to be different
- at first it was always an absolute path (that is without “./” or “…/” in it) relative to the
baseUri - then starting at some point it began to always show a popup with 2 options: absolute or relavive
- now (since like a week ago or so) it just always uses a relative path with “./” and “…/” to the current file no matter what, without asking, which is very frustrating and annoying
how can i get the auto import to use absolute paths like it was back in the day?

This should be exposed in VSCode (insiders as of now) under “typescript.preferences.importModuleSpecifier”: “non-relative”
Before that, I just noticed you’re using
.jsxfiles – you might need to set “javascript.preferences.importModuleSpecifier” instead.
