You can simply go to the source code at light_plus.json

Or in the case of linux, usually is stored at: /usr/share/code/resources/app/extensions/theme-defaults/themes/light_plus.json

cd /usr/share/code/resources/app/extensions/theme-defaults/themes/

Will put you in the folder where all the default themes are. but we warned - future updates might overwrites those files.

Important note: there's an hierarchy: light_plus -> light_vs -> light_defaults -> etc. common which is the base is in the code theme.ts, so if you can't find a setting, look at the parent.
