I recently started to use vscode. In the beginning I used to get the output in the output tab. But recently the output tab is not showing the output but output is showing in the terminal tab. I unchecked the run in terminal option but still the output is not working.
Can anyone help me please?
Usually, the code we run is output in the terminal,
If you want to get output in output, you can download the extension named "code runner".
If you don't check this option, it will be output in output.
You can install the Code Runner extension, which will cause your content to be displayed in the output window.
In addition, add the following code in setting.json to control whether to output in the terminal.
"code-runner.runInTerminal": false
You can also add: "console": "internalConsole" in launch.json, then click F5 to debug the code, this will output in DEBUG CONSOLE.

I'm a VSCODE first-time user. I tried to run debug on a simple python file and was not successful. I got 2 strange results:
the debug tool bar showed and disappeared instantly
no local variables was shown in VARIABLE section
Please see the screenshot.
Anyone could give me a hint anything was missing in what I did?
You need the python vscode extension to debug a python file. When you press F5 to start debugging, a menu will ask you what you are trying to debug. Click on Python File. The python extension creates a launch.json file for you and starts the debugger.
I noticed the Run and Debug tab is in your screenshot. Click that tab above where the variables would be shown and it should ask you to create the launch.json file in order to debug the file.

Please can anyone help me out code runner only shows the right output after running the python file.
For example
Here I used the option "run python file" in terminal and it worked
Then i ran it using coderunner extension and it works
But when i change the output and run it, it doesn't change
It only changes after i run it with python file. So I have to run it in terminal for the right output to show. code runner only mirrors the last output in terminal
This may seem obvious but in the third picture, as you can see from the white circle on the tab where the x to close usually resides indicates that you have not saved the file hence it will output results from the last time you ran it using the 'run python file'. The 'run python file' button saves before running automatically so it would be easy to accidently miss the cause as now its saved with the new input and your code runner will output the new result again making it seem as though its duplicating the 'run python file' button.
When I run code on VS Studio Code, instead getting an output in the "Output" I get the output in "Terminal".
I used to get it under "Output" before. I am using Code Runner as extension.
Can someone please help me.
Thank you.
The Code Runner extension runs code in the Output tab by default.
However, you can set Code Runner to run in the Terminal tab by going to the Settings (Press Ctrl + ,) and then tick the Code-runner: Run in Terminal option:
After ticking this box, Code Runner now runs code inside the Terminal tab:
Did you accidentally tick the Code-runner: Run In Terminal option? If so, untick that option so that Code Runner runs code inside the Output tab.
As you can see, there is no output shown in output section. But the output is shown in terminal tab. Can someone help me in getting the output in output tab instead of Terminal tab ?
that is because you used the code runner extension, am i right? It runs the code by using the command prompt or terminal and run the code with the directory to your file. So if you use code runner extension, it will run the code in the terminal because it uses the terminal.
Your code is indeed supposed to be run from the terminal because you used the code-runner extension. Even though you used another method like running the code from python, it will still be running from the terminal.
Put the following in your settings.json file:
"code-runner.runInTerminal" : true
Courtesy of Code Runner in VSCode is running in output instead of CMD in the Terminal (the opposite question).
I have a Console application open in VS Code. When I press Ctrl-F5, the output of my program is displayed in a DEBUG CONSOLE window, along with other text.
How do I get Visual Studio code to launch my program in a new console window?
As documented here this can be achieved using this setting:
"console": "externalTerminal"
The settings file is in the solution directory: .vscode/launch.json .
When you're just using Tasks and not Launchers, you can follow the advice here.
For me on Linux, I changed my shell command in VSCode from command to gnome-terminal -e command. That did the trick; that's all I had to do.
Note that if you do this you can get rid of the presentation option set from your task.
