settings.json:

{
    "python.linting.enabled": true,
    "python.languageServer": "Pylance",
    "python.analysis.typeCheckingMode": "basic",
    "python.analysis.diagnosticSeverityOverrides": {

        "js",
        "css",
        "mpy",
        "tpl"
    ]
}

What are the steps to reproduce this issue?

1. set syncFolder to "src"
2. upload project via ctrl+p command
3. toggle pico filesystem to verify the upload

What happens?

all .py files on all relative pathes are uploaded to the board.

What were you expecting to happen?

i excpect that the syncFolder perform a cd srcand upload all files within this folder and apply all rules at this stage.
i mean that synFileTypes applied at this folder and subfolder within it.
i excpect that the syncFolder will be at root on filesystem on my board. like if i do cp src/* / on linux.

Any logs, error output, etc?

(To get extension logs see Terminal > Output > Extension Host and copy output concerning pico-w-go or micropico)

Any other comments?

i made a test and change the "default" part of the syncFolder configuration in my /home/chris/.vscode/extensions/paulober.pico-w-go-3.7.5-linux-x64/package.json

if i do the setting there it work as excpected. it seems that the settings.json in the .vscode folder in my project folder do not respected. the defaults from package.json do override project setting or it just not loaded. i dont know. same with #213

Don't know if this is related, but sync config does not work in multi-folder workspaces. Should I create a new issue?

[ChrisChoke]

yes that is exactly what happen.
if i toggle the "Toggle Pico-W-FS" button, the workspace change to a multi-folder-workspace. and all the settings in .vscode/settings.json dont work anymore. in that case we need a ..code-workspace file with all the config.

i think the workspace should change back to single workspace after toggling the pico-filsystem button again.

This is more of how VSCode extension settings work. IMO this setting should be instead in the .micropico file.

However since we have it in the extension setting for now, what you can do is save the VSCode workspace and set the extension settings there:

./myproject.code-workspace

{
	"folders": [
		{
			"path": "."
		},
		{
			"name": "Pico (W) Remote Workspace",
			"uri": "pico:"
		}
	],
	"settings": {
		"python.linting.enabled": true,
		"python.languageServer": "Pylance",
		"python.analysis.typeCheckingMode": "basic",
		"python.analysis.typeshedPaths": [
			".vscode\\Pico-W-Stub",
			"~\\.micropico-stubs\\included"
		],
		"python.analysis.extraPaths": [
			".vscode\\Pico-W-Stub\\stubs",
			"~\\.micropico-stubs\\included"
		],
		"[python]": {
			"editor.defaultFormatter": "ms-python.black-formatter"
		},
		"python.analysis.diagnosticSeverityOverrides": {
			"reportMissingModuleSource": "none"
		},
		"micropico.syncFolder": "src",
		"micropico.openOnStart": true,
		"micropico.softResetAfterUpload": true
	}
}
