Typescript not recognising internal package references across monorepo

[russell-knight]

Summary

I have a monorepo with a few apps under apps/, as well as a common internal package under packages/. When I open my internal package and try to view the references of an exported member, I get no results. However, if I do a grep for the exported member I can see it is in use in various apps. If I open one of the files that contains this reference and then try to view references on the definition once more in my internal package, it now is able to find the reference.

Each of my apps have a tsconfig.json file in the root as does my internal package.

I'd like to understand what's happening here. Why are the references not found until the file containing the reference is open? Is there a way to "fix" this so that I can view the references without opening the file containing it first?
