Active editor doesn't show a RST document - no properties to preview.

[Abdelkrim]

1. I have installed the plugin for VS Code
2. I have opened a .rst file
3. I have hit ctrl k + r
4. a new window opens displaying this message Active editor doesn't show a RST document - no properties to preview.

What do I have to do?

Hi,
What version of VSCode are you running? I will attempt to reproduce this as
you should not have to do anything else.
The only issue I could think of is the .rst document does not have focus
(ie cursor presence) when the command is triggered.

I'm getting the same problem, with the following version of VSCode:

Version 1.0.0
Commit fa6d0f03813dfb9df4589c30121e9fcffa8a8ec8
Date 2016-04-13T14:21:33.326Z
Shell 0.35.6
Renderer 45.0.2454.85
Node 4.1.1

I'm on Xubuntu 16.04 64 bit.

I have tried multiple times to make sure that the opened RST document is indeed focused when opening.

This is the content of the index.rst file I'm trying with:

.. SciLuigi documentation master file, created by
   sphinx-quickstart on Thu Sep 15 15:49:34 2016.
   You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least
   contain the root `toctree` directive.

Welcome to SciLuigi's documentation!
====================================

Contents:

.. toctree::
   :maxdepth: 2


Indices and tables
==================

* :ref:`genindex`
* :ref:`modindex`
* :ref:`search`

Ok, I found a problem/solution now: I had installed two rst-extensions at the same time.

It worked better if I disabled this other extension I installed. (Now getting some other error messages, which I will report in another issue), but now at least it seems to be trying.)
