This problem is difficult to explain.
In the image below, how do I get VSCode to only show adjL? I only want suggestions from the file I'm currently editing.
Currently, it shows a whole list of variables that I don't ever use.
See here: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/intellisense
Adding this to your setting.json should do it.
"editor.quickSuggestions": {
"other": false,
"variable": true
}
But I not recomended that, because intellisence is realy helpfull! ;)
Unless you only care about hiding other variables but not other types of prompts.

I'm using VSCodium to write some Python, and using the Python/Intellisense/Pylance Extension and an annoyance is the constant pop-ups explaining every basic function to me.
For example if I start to type a print() statement it pops up a large box with all the syntax details of writing a print statement, which blocks my view of much of my code. I'd like to just be able to type without the big pop-up suggestions.
I tried under the Preferences > Settings > text editor and there are pages and pages of "suggest:" option check boxes there, and though I tried several, none helped. Not sure if that's the right place to look.
I tried to change the Quick Suggestions Delay to 5000ms but it seems to have no effect on that instant popup on typing print( as well.
I'm starting to think perhaps there is another set of settings that controls this, but there are so many and none seem to be making a difference.
I am using editor.quickSuggestions and editor.suggestOnTriggerCharacters turned off for that purpose:
"editor.quickSuggestions": {
"comments": "off",
"strings": "off",
"other": "off"
},
"editor.suggestOnTriggerCharacters": false,
…and it works for me for languages I am using; not using Python at this point.
I sometimes use VScode for plain text documents, however I'm constantly interrupted by suggestions to use particular words:
How can I stop this behavior for txt files? I would still like suggestions for code.
Via this VScode bug and various related bugs I've attempted the following:
"[txt]": {
"editor.quickSuggestions": false
}
However that does not stop the suggestions from happening.
Found the answer to this one myself, via this screenshot on a related bug - pasting it here to help others:
"[plaintext]": {
"editor.wordBasedSuggestions": false,
"editor.quickSuggestions": false
},
this worked for me:
command palette -> Preferences: configure language specific settings
under suggestions, go to Editor: Quick suggestions, and under the other item, change the value from on to off.
Note there were two other confusingly-named settings: Inline suggest: enabled and `Editor: Snippet suggestions". I had no idea what they meant, but they were not relevant here.
I can't seem to find the way to disable suggestions in VS code. I'm not even sure if the boxes that show in the code are called suggestions, but I really want to disable these. They are covering literally almost half of my code. Does anyone know how to disable these boxes?
The top box is parameterHinits, and the bottom box is quickSuggestions.
I think this can solve your problem.
If you don't want quick suggestions, you can set:
"editor.quickSuggestions": {
"other": false,
"comments": false,
"strings": false
}
But I think that is unnecessary, since you can just set a longer editor.quickSuggestionsDelay.
tips: You can always toggle quick suggestion using ctrl + space
I've searched through similar questions, and couldn't find an answer. It's that box that keeps opening whenever I push Enter, and proceed to include another style component on my stylesheet.
Most of the times it covers a lot of the code when it appears, and this is kinda bothering me. Thanks in advance!
You could stop quick suggestions by adding the following snippet in settings.json
"editor.quickSuggestions": {
"other": false,
"comments": false,
"strings": false
}
Or if you just want to disable only emmet abbreviations, you could do so by adding this property in settings.json
"emmet.showExpandedAbbreviation": "never"
More information about various intellisense and emmet abbreviations settings could be found in the following pages

When I'm not working in JavaScript, Intellisense is unfortunately not often terribly helpful. How can I make it only appear when I hit controlspace, and not just appear automatically?
I don't want to turn it off completely. I just want it to only appear when I explicitly ask it to.
Although the VS Code Intellisense documentation does not define "Quick Suggestions", apparently "quick suggestions" is Intellisense—or is the visible face of it. (Are there also slow suggestions? I have no idea. The name seems to suggest being just one aspect of Intellisense, but... it turns out that it seems to be pretty much the central thing.)
So to stop Intellisense from appearing uninvited, you have to turn off "quick suggestions". Here's how I did that, in my user settings:
"editor.quickSuggestions": {
"other": false,
"comments": false,
"strings": false
},
