As you can see here there are no indent dots on my vscode although I have turned on render white space
Could it be one of my extensions messing with it?
Can someone help me turn on the dots that shows indentation like in the 3rd image?
You must add "editor.renderWhitespace": "all" parameter in your vscode settings.json file.

I have some troubles with my vscode settings. I have the following settings:
detect indentation: false
insert spaces: True
tab size: 4
But anytime I focus out of vscode it will automatically change to tabs as indents for my python code!
I have recorded it and uploaded it to youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ddf3IP8zNY. Here you can see in the bottom right corner that tabs are choosen as indent. I changed them to spaces and go into settings to check that all settings are correct to have spaces as indent but as soon as i close settings it goes back to tabs!
What am I missing?
Try turning on Editor: Detect Indentation
I'm still not 100% sure what you're trying to solve here.
By default the gutter and the code editor have white backgrounds and you can't tell that there is no space between the two. In my color scheme the gutter is gray (trying to match IntelliJ-based IDE) and as you can see the first column of the code is basically touching the guter.
What I am trying to do is to add some kind of space in between or some left-padding to the code editor.
Any advise or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
This is what it looks like:
This is what I am trying to achieve:
Is it possible to highlight the currently selected group/object/list in vs code?
As you can see there is a "basic highlighting" the grey vertical line highlight. But I would like to use a (just a bit) lighter dark grey as background colour for all affected lines. Instead of just a simple grey vertical line.
Only for YAML files though.
Well the indent guide below selector is already highlighted to show its children.
You can try this extension which highlights other items on the same indentation depth.
I recently opened vscode and saw this arrow showing up when I highlight indents.
I think it has something to do with the font I'm using. How do I hide it?
look up whitespace in settings; there's an option to show it all the time, only when highlighted, or never.
I believe the default annoyingly changed to 'when highlighted' in the most recent version, so you can switch it back to never.
edit as per comment below:
the exact setting is editor.renderWhitespace
Netbeans 8 by default shows indent guide lines (light gray dotted vertical lines). How can I turn that feature off?
This can be turned off in menu: View > Show Indent Guide Lines. More about configuring the indent lines in the release notes.
Release Notes
The Guide Lines are dotted lines drawn every tab size before a character on the line. They are shown by default. You can turn off feature in menu View-Show Indent Guide Lines. To change line's color go to Options-Font&Colors-Highlighting-Indent Guide Lines.
i went to tools, options, editor, unchecked "use all language settings" then adjusted right margin to 200 and its off the screen, hope it helps
