As per the solution from previous posts, I tried to fold all blocked comments from the command palette but nothing happens. I have tried a lot of extensions/plugins but still, I can't fold them. Any solution to this? I have to close everything manually. However, in the IDE I can fold multiple single-line comments by hitting the down arrow on the left. Is there any shortcut or particular plugin/ extension for this ?
Am I commenting in the wrong way?
You have used // which is a single line comment
Use /*...your code ...*/ for block comments
Shortcut for block comment is Ctrl+Shift+A in VS Code
Yes. Press Ctrl+K then press Ctrl+/.
i use visual studio code to create my flutter app, but since 1 month ago, i detected as if the editor have a double autocomplete.
When i write for example: "Container" i have the autocomplete while i'm writing, but if i press Enter it won't add the brackets at the end (before, it did!)
And, if i write: "child" i have the autocomplete while i'm writing, but if i press Enter, the cursor will be with a selection, and there is no autocomplete until i click in somewhere to remove the auto-selection, or i write the command completely without autocomplete.
It's like if there were a double autocomplete in conflict, that select the words after i press enter.
Autocomplete working:
Strange auto-selection and then no-autocomplete:
Furthermore, if i write "setState" and press Enter to autocomplete the function, i get the whole function selected and tabbed of 4 tabulation on the right. Same for initState.
I tried to disable every extension and restart, but i had same problem.
I'm so slow now to write flutter code, because i have to remember every CamelCase word and property and write them in every single char, or click in somewhere to make autocomplete works.
Fixed!
In setting i had to disable LSP.
"dart.previewLsp": false
I've the same issue, after some research I found this:
https://github.com/Dart-Code/Dart-Code/issues/2823#issuecomment-725630953
I'm not sure this is the right way because I didn't have try yet but the problem on GitHub issues seams the same you describe, apparently this solution works with LSP enabled
quiet some time, I used Notepad++ for coding my vbs-scripts. Now I'm switching to vscode, for improved syntax highlighting and IntelliSense- features.
Some time ago, I added some "header-file" I want to include to each of my scripts, because I use the same variables in each project and am too lazy to re-type the same text over again. Is there a way to make vscode IntelliSense to recognize the variables I defined in my header-file? If so, how? I would prefer not having build my own snippets, for I still expand my "header-file".
Thank you for your help,
kind regards,
Georg
The standard method is to modify the c_cpp_properties.json, VS code can do that for you if you prefer, just when you encounter the error (squiggily line under the #include <generic_header.>) as such: include error
Mouse over the error and a pop up will show as such: error popup
(Ignore the spanish bit)
Then just use the quick fix hotkey (Ctrl + .) and vscode will do it for you.
I've recently started using the Visual Studio Code editor. I'm really loving it, but there's one critical feature (for me) that I haven't been able to find. Is there a method list, similar to the Navigator in NetBeans or Member dropdown in Visual Studio?
Yes, there is the workbench.action.gotoSymbol command. On Windows and Linux it's set to CTRL+Shift+O by default, on Mac it's Cmd+Shift+O.
If this command isn't available for the file types you are working with then you should take a look at the VSCode extensions. Not all languages support this feature.
Update: As stated in the comments by #jeff-xiao this extension is Deprecated and it's now a built in feature of Visual Studio code. It should be available at the bottom of file explorer as "Outline" view.
Previous text:
There is now an Extension that supports this. Code Outline creates a panel in the "Explorer" section and for JavaScript, will list variables and functions in a file. I've been using this for a while now and it scratches the itch I had. Other commenters have mentioned it supports Python and PHP well.
It still seems to be in development but I haven't had any issues. Development version available on GitHub. If you're the author reading this - thanks!
This is how it looks:
If Code Outline is not visible, you can show it by:
Invoke Code's Go to symbol command:
macOS: cmd+shift+o (the letter o, not zero)
Windows/Linux: ctrl+shift+o
Typing a colon (:) after invoking Go to symbol will group symbols by type (classes, interfaces, methods, properties, variables). Then just scroll to the methods section.
In 2020 version of VSCode
Cmd+P
# - Find symbol across files
# - Find symbol within file
#: - Group symbols within a file
In VSCode 1.24 you can do that.
Right click on EXPLORER on the side bar and checked Outline.
There is a new release that can do that!
Check here the latest release notes regarding code outline
UPDATE: The extension features are now built-in and the extension itself is now deprecated
I have found this extention: Code Outline.
This is how it looks like:
I believe that is what you have been looking for.
There's no such feature today,
the CTRL+SHIFT+O == CTRL+P # doesn't work for all languages.
As a last resort you can use the search panel - although it is not so fast an easy to use as you'd like - you can enter this regex in the search panel to find all functions:
function\s([_A-Za-z0-9]+)\s*\(
For PHP users :)
Make sure you have 'PHP Symbol' plugin then you can get all methods and class in 'OUTLINE' Sidebar's Bottom.
Press ⌘ command + ⇧ shift + O in "macOS" or Ctrl + Shift + O while using "Windows"
OUTLINE:
#Symbol:
For python in Explorer View, click on OUTLINE as below:
Visual Studio Code market place has a very nice extension named Go To Method for navigating only methods in a code file.
Hit Ctrl+Shift+P and type the install extensions and press enter
Now type Add to method in search box of extensions market place and press enter.
Click install to install the extension.
Last step is to bind a keyboard shortcut to the command workbench.action.gotoMethod to make it a real productivity thing for a developer.
Watch this link: https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_40#_type-filters-for-outline-and-breadcrumbs
Explorer -> OUTLINE, you can choose what you want to show (only methods and functions in your case) and the result is similar to Netbeans:
Open symbol by name :
CTRL+T
might be what you are looking for. Works perfectly with my TypeScript project.
It is an extra part to the answer to this question here but I thought it might be useful. As many people mentioned, Visual Studio Code has the OUTLINE part which provides the ability to browse to different function and show them on the side.
I also wanted to add that if you check the follow cursor mark, it highlights that function name in the OUTLINE view, which is very helpful in browsing and seeing which function you are in.
ctrl+shift+o // This should work for javascript files by default
For PHP install the extension PHP SYMBOLS
FOR PYTHON install the extension PYTHON
On Reload, this will work fine
in-built code OUTLINE available now with VS code
There is a plugin called show functions which lists all the function definitions in a file. It also allows you to sort the function so can search them easily.
CTRL+F12 (CMD+F12 for Mac) - opens for me all methods and members in PHP class.
For find method in all files you can press CTRL + P and then start search with #
example : #signin
Take a look at Show Functions plugin.
It can list functions, symbols, bookmarks by configurable regular expressions. Regular expressions are a real saver, expecially when you're not using a mainstream language and when CodeOutline doesn't do the job.
It's ugly to see a split window with these functions (CodeOutline seems to be better integrated) but at least there's something to use
If you are using typescript you can use this extension "Code navigator for typescript".
I have been trying it and found it useful to list my typescript class methods.
I'm used to the sublime text 3 editor.
It has many handy features.
take the code snippets for example,
Once you type begin then press TAB
It will generate the corresponding code block
begin
rescue Exception => e
end
And the plugin All Autocomplete
It can show the auto-complete hint for all opened files.
For example, if you have a variable name called taiwan_is_awesome
then you can get the autocomplete in other files.
Does Rubymine has the above features ?
If yes, what's the corresponding keymap ?
It's important for me to use those features.
THanks
Once you type begin then press TAB
It's called "Live Templates".
"Live templates (or code snippets) allow you to insert frequently-used constructions into your code. These can be conditions, blocks, loops, and so on."
You can manage bundled and create new ones at Settings/Preferences | Editor | Live Templates.
Here is a good "how to use" tutorial with screenshots: https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/Live+Templates+%28Snippets%29+in+PhpStorm -- it's for PhpStorm but exactly the same functionality is available in RubyMine.
UPDATE: 2022-11-15
The above tutorial link now automatically redirects to the corresponding Help page for PhpStorm.
Here is the same official Help page but for RubyMine that shows how to use and create them: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/ruby/using-live-templates.html
The setting you want to make RubyMine code completion work like All Autocomplete in Atom & ST3 is called "Autopopup code completion".
Solution:
Settings > Editor > General > Code Completion > "Autopopup code completion"
Note: there is another type of code completion called "Hippie Completion".
However, it works differently than "All Autocomplete". In RubyMine "Hippy Completion", you start typing text, and then you have to "guess" when RubyMine has enough text to figure out the completion you want. Then you hit ⌥/ (on the Mac). If RubyMine guesses right, it will autocomplete correctly.
I greatly prefer the "All autocomplete"/"Autopopup code completion" method, but just thought I'd mention this alternative.
