I have all of these tooltips always showing up when using VSCode, but I don't know what to turn off. I have tried turning off Python Linters and hover tooltips, but I don't seem to be able to turn off the right things. I primarily use the Kite extension, so I don't need 3 different suggestions popping up all the time. This ends up clogging up my screen as much as Pycharm.
Add this to your JSON settings
"editor.parameterHints": false,

it's a simple problem that has been bothering me for a long time, when I use autocomplete, the text I write after it becomes highlighted and suggestions don't show up anymore, does anyone know how to disable it?
it goes back to normal after pressing ESC
Video Example
The Solution is to go to VS Code Settings and disable following setting:
"editor.suggest.snippetsPreventQuickSuggestions": false // enables suggestions
When I right click in the editor, vs code executes whatever menu item the cursor happens to be over. It happens far too fast for me to make my actual choice known.
I have already spent 30 minutes trying to find a solution. If you search for "right click" in the Command Palette, you are told there are no matches. You don't get any hits in the docs, either. Please advise. Thank you.
It has been reported that the situation you mentioned is a bug in the repository on GitHub. It is reported that Visual Studio Code works fine when zoom is disabled.
You can update the following setting to override this behavior:
"editor.mouseWheelZoom": false
Or you can update the mouseWheelZoom setting from the pop-up window by using the shortcut CTRL + , to go to Settings.
It's crazy, but this is still an issue for Linux users after so many years. Especially, when using a Laptop with touch-pad it makes VSCode frustrating to use. The problem occurs when you use "native" window style (you can tell, because the theme will not be applied to context menus) and have a non-default zoom.
The GitHub issue that #sercan linked to has a few solutions. In order to save you some time, there is basically two things that I found work and make sense:
Set your zoom level to default / 0. In settings.json add: "window.zoomLevel": 0 This works with all window styles, but obviously is not always viable
Change the title bar style from native to custom. In settings.json add: "window.titleBarStyle": "custom" This will change how the title bar but also the context menus look. Setting this, you can zoom in again
I am currently using Flutter with Dart. How do I permanently disable this annoying "Run|Debug" line in vscode?
That Run | Debug is not built-in to vscode. It must be contributed by one of your extensions. These seem like likely culprits:
Dart: Show Main Code Lens
// Whether to show CodeLens actions in the editor for quick running/debugging scripts with main functions.
Dart: Show Test Code Lens
// Whether to show CodeLens actions in the editor for quick running/debugging tests.
In case people get here because there is a Debug or Run in their package.json, that is a separate issue and answer, see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62358131/how-to-disable-debug-from-showing-in-package-json/62368407?r=SearchResults&s=1|57.9327#62368407
Just disable Enable Code Lens in jest plugin.
It's very annoying! When you write test code, small Debug text shows on top of a test (above it method) when it fails.
During programming, it constantly shows and hides, causing lines of code move up and down a bit. It's terrible experience. Fortunately, easy to disable.
After disabling it, we still have test status feedback:
In VSC settings, search for "Pester Code Lens".
You can disable the first option.
Disable Pester Code Lens
Add this line to your settings:
"editor.codeLens": false,
Or do this in settings:
For Java Extension paste this in your settings.json file
"java.debug.settings.enableRunDebugCodeLens": false
you just open your vs Code Setting -> Text Editor -> Code Lean [Check mark this Box]

If you meant to ask us how to set up Visual Studio Code to automatically add closing tags to XML elements such as the element shown in the picture, afaik I don't think the software features this kind of functionality built in. You might have to go the way of using add-ons, such as these two:
Auto Close Tag for Visual Studio Code

A web search could easily bring up a couple more. Go ahead and give it a try; if it isn't what you want, please edit your question and make it clear to us.
Okay, after some further research, there is an open issue on getting more control over those hover popups see disable hover in editor.
The suggestion is to use the undocumented setting:
"editor.hover": false,
which works after a restart of vscode. You must restart vscode to get it to work. Unfortunately that applies to all files of any kind and
"[html]": {
"editor.hover": false,
}
does not work so you have to use just
"editor.hover": false,
instead.
I'm trying to configure Visual Studio Code to treat tab characters in files as being 8 spaces but have indentation (when I hit tab on the keyboard) as being 4 spaces. Is this at all possible?
I can achieve this in eclipse with the code style formatter but can't achieve the same thing in VS Code.
(I've submitted an issue to the VS Code repository on git hub now https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/42643)
You need to modify your user settings (or workspace settings) in VS Code. By default, it is set a tab as 4 spaces.
You can modify the setting "editor.tabSize": 4, and set that to 8.
However, also be aware that "editor.detectIndentation": true, is set to try by default and this causes VS Code to detect the indication size of the file you open. So if the file itself has spacing set to say 4 or even 2, then VS Code will auto set spaces to that value while that file is open...or until you convert indentation.
You can convert indentation via the command palette and that should update the spacing to your desired setting.
As far as I've seen, No.
It appears that VS code still can't separate the two concepts of tab size and indentation distance. Some suggestions, ideas and hopeful soulmates of ours can be found in this issue on github: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/5394#issuecomment-215414643
I agree with the comments in that issue in that separating the tab size from the indentation distance is a nice feature that solves several problems. The only thing needed is for someone to actually do the work to implement that in vs code.
Or, a less intrusive route, I have actually been thinking about creating an extension to override the indentation action in some way and use a custom settings variable for the indentation distance there... but I have yet to learn enough about the internals of VS code to determine if that's even possible for an extension to do.
