Is it possible to show the last modified date for each file and folder in the Explorer window of VS Code? If it's not possible by changing the settings, are there any extensions that do this?
I use macOS but am interested in solutions on macOS/Windows.
I'd like to jump in with a link to the best solution I found so far (and a link to the original repository, in case the link to marketplace changes).
But the ultimate solution (I think) would be to show that info in the status bar - I will hopefully remember to update this answer if I ever come across such a solution!
I use the VS Code filesize extension. It shows the size of the file in the bottom status bar. If you click on this size figure you will immediately see a table with the date of file creation and the date of the file update like the following:
There appears to be a whole array of extensions available nowadays, for such matter:

Some days ago vscode started showing the following interface any time I had a git conflict:
But I don't like it and want the regular one, the one that looks like this:
How can I modify the configurations to change this interface, I've explored hundreds of settings in vscode but haven't found the right one.
Thanks a lot in advance.
There is a setting called "git.mergeEditor" disable it then you have the old view back !
#Cristian Diaz Please refer to the latest version (1.71.0) Release note. They didn't remove the old merge conflicts resolution. We can enable it by clicking on the file icon.
Is there a way to attach images to github issues without drag'n'drop, copy-pasting images or jumping through various hoops - just by using a file picker?
I find drag'n'drop very inconvenient, and copy-paste does not work in Firefox (on top of being rather inconvenient as well).
Github help page only mentions drag'n'drop, or copy-paste for Chrome.
The question here on adding images lists additional methods like creating a custom repository or wiki.
All of that is enough of a pain in the ass for me to ask a question here, hoping for a hidden way to use normal file picker.
There is a file picker. Simply click on the Attach files by dragging & dropping, selecting them, or pasting from the clipboard field.
Yes there is, its very simple, but not intuitive.
Consider this example where you want to comment:
Just click the highligted section with the text "Attach files by dragging and dropping, selecting them, ...".
Then a file dialog will open up:
Is it possible to drag selected text to move it? This is in almost every other editor (not to mention text input fields in browsers.) I was surprised not to find it in VS Code.
Here is a gif example.
This is now supported as of Feb 2017 release (1.10.1) but it is disabled by default.
To enable it: Go to File > Preferences > Settings and add this line "editor.dragAndDrop": true
Source: https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_10#_preview-drag-and-drop-selected-text
Looks like it's not yet implemented, but there's an open issue about it.
If you want to help without diving into the internals, go 👍 the issue to add to its social signal.
I don't believe so. Their site says that it is keyboard-optimized and keyboard-centric, so their idea might be that you should highlight some text, cut it, and past it where you want it rather than dragging it.
I talk about this problem on Github Microsoft page and Microsoft engineers see this. I hope to solve it. (Please support by 👍 on this page.)
The Project Navigator has this nifty filter at the bottom (icon with a clock). When you click it, it only shows the files which have been edited recently.
Problem: There seems to be no way to reset this. My project has nearly 200 source files and I use a lot of them from day to day. So this list is getting bigger and bigger, and therefore less useful over time.
Often I am just done with something and then I'd just want to get rid of these files in the recents filter.
Is there a secret way to reset the filter? Xcode4 must store this information somewhere.
Navigate into the .xcproject or .xcworkspace package using the terminal or open package in Finder. Clear the contents of the <username>.xcuserdata folder.
I had this problem today, and apparently Apple fixed the bug. Just click on the clock icon again to toggle.
For me, restarting Xcode (I'm using 7.2) reduces the number of files shown when the "recent files" filter is on. But I don't know how the files that still remain are determined.
In Visual Studio, the editor has a drop-down list of functions in the current class; clicking on one will take me to the top of that function. Is there a way to get a similar behaviour from RubyMine?
I suggested this as a feature request to the folks at JetBrains, and within the day they got back to me to tell me about the 'File Structure Popup' on ^F12 which does very nearly what I want; it's an extra keypress but I can live with it.
If you're working on a Rails project, change the project view to Rails (change the View as: dropdown value)
Online help is here.
It looks like this is as close as it gets to the functionality you're looking for.
Ctrl+0 key in editor will show all methods with search capacity.
The same is drop-down menu Navigate -> File structure.
