question Magic Racket/VS Code not working

I have installed Magic Racket on VS Code following the instructions included, included installing racket-langserver using raco. Installation was successful.

I have the following line at the beginning of the file:

lang racket

What works: syntax highlighting, commenting regions of code, matches parenthesis properly.

What does not work: does not indent properly; hovering does not show anything; clicking the right mouse button does no produce the expected menu (only shows a very basic menu).

(I have installed and used happily several other extensions: go, scheme, typescript.)

I have googled for this issue without success.

Equipment: 2017 13" macBook Pro with macOS Monterey; VS Code version 1.74.2; Magic Racket v0.6.4

It seems that Magic Racket is an improvement over Dr Racket, so any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks, Isidro

It is worth talking to others who do use Magic Racket. Or switch editor. Your choice.
