Bug: 'Show Activate Button' fails to render a button in the terminal menu #820

Description

Hi,

title, pretty much. Barebones stock python setup in vscode. very little modification to dev environment - only the MSFT python extensions installed, no changes to extension settings.

  • go into settings,
  • toggle 'python-envs > terminal: show activate button' to true
  • reload VS code

no change. does not matter if i

  • pull a python file up in the currently focused editor
  • manually activate or deactivate a venv in the shell
  • set my project/workspace interpreter to global homebrew or global pyenv

no button displays.
