Highlight occurrences doesn't work in normal mode

So the highlight occurrences feature in vs code doesn’t work while vim is in normal mode, I understand that this might be an implication of vscode not knowing where the cursor is located while vim is in normal mode but is there a way to get around that? I am taking about this Notice how instance of anchor_start are highlighted, but that’s only in insert mode because vim isn’t engaged.

I also wonder if the extension might report to vscode the current cursor location which i think it does because other things like bracket highlighting seems to work, then why doesn’t it work with word occurrences?

@asvetliakov i’ll test that and report back

Thank you! It would be nice to rigger it automatically on all cursor movements on the plugin side.
