I am used to the focus follows mouse option for years.
In the VSCode editor I want to switch between the integrated terminal and the code writer by simply focusing the cursor on them.
For example in Geany editor:
Does anyone know how to enable focus follows mouse from settings or using any simple hack while trying to move between the code writer and terminal?
The simple answer is it's not possible at the moment. There have been numerous issues raised in the past (#25685, #44214) and they have been closed because "the number of votes ... and duplicate issues" are not high enough. Go out and raise an issue and get others to vote on that issue.
There was a pull request made a couple of years ago that would introduce a focusOnHover setting. This appears to resolve the issue but it has not been accepted and is now a bit stale and needs some work. So you could for VSCode (for yourself), apply the pull request and then build it.
I am keen on this feature as well.
It is now a candidate for the backlog, see https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/93772 (Provide a "focus-follow-mouse" setting)
So upvote it if you want this. It needs 20 votes to move to the backlog.

After restarting vscode whenever I try to use an autocomplete suggestion from IntelliCode, it also includes the recommended star thing.
issue video
I have tried switching to an older version of intelliCode, disabling all my other extensions, switching to a new profile, and resetting my vscode settings.
I have also searched google, but was unable to find anyone else with this problem.
A commit has been pushed to fix this already, see https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/pull/172616. I would think it'll be in the next Stable Release next week.
Looks like it is a new reported issue from multiple users. See Committing completion in a TS file inserts a star character.
Just filed 01/25/2023. I suggest you upvote and comment if your use case is different than those already presented. And keep an eye on that issue if there is some sort of a fix posted. It should be a simple fix, someone changed the mapping from the suggestion to the actual inserted completion.
[Also incorrectly reported at https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/172419 - it is an extension issue so the first link is where to respond.]
I want to hide the vertical line as shown in How to hide/disable VSCode LiveShare "Start Discussion".
However, since I have not started a Live Share session, I do not know how to do this.
I would appreciate it if anyone here could help us solve this problem!
I am a new user here and it doesn't appear I can comment yet, so I am posting this as an answer instead, apologies if it is not applicable or for any confusion: More information on what extensions you're using would be helpful. Do you use the GitHub Pull Requests and Issues extension? I recently had the same issue you describe (and had not started LiveShare) and after examination I concluded the vertical line related to the GitHub Pull Requests and Issues extension (which I was not using in practice anyway) and so I uninstalled the aforementioned GitHub extension and that eliminated the unwanted discussion vertical lines. So, if you've been using aforementioned GitHub extension, perhaps the solution relates to that.
New to VSCode and notice there's not a dropdown history of previous find/replace strings. I am also striking out on finding this functionality via extensions.
Most every editor I've ever used has had this, so I find its absence conspicuous.
I see exact and similar feature requests on github, but alas it could never get the required 20+ votes in time before it was closed. I was prepared to open another feature request, but the directions when opening a new feature request state
<!-- Please search existing issues to avoid creating duplicates. -->
so I'm uncertain of the protocol. Does this only mean active tickets?
The closed feature request garnered 9 votes, so there was some interest.
The up/down cursor prompt only works per session and hence, only if you have already done a search. I too use a regular expression routinely from session to session, so I have to open up a notepad file that has my patterns then copy them to the search/replace window. Royal pain.
And I agree, there should be a drop-down.
Use the up and down arrows. There is placeholder text to mention this - see the gif - but it is easy to miss. Not as nice as a dropdown though as you have to cycle through recent entiries.
I had exactly the same problem another user (arghtype) is having here in this question's thread: How to enable duplicate tabs in Eclipse? (i.e. duplicate windows)
Although, it is only an answer post that doesn't necessarily achieve what we both want.
It recommends opening a separate, duplicated window, which is a bit resource heavy for what I need.
I wanted to formally ask this question in case anyone has the appropriate answer instead of a work-around or compromise, or we can open a feature request in the Eclipse work item tracker, and this way the answer and any history can become more apparent for this specific issue.
Also note I have tried the Menu options "Window" > "Show View" > "Other...", and then have selected the view/panel I wanted, with the current one in my UI both selected and unselected in different cases, and I still do not receive a duplicate panel.
I would also appreciate sources such as links to any documentation, or at least a screen shot with an answer, since I am very carefully not asking about the editor panel in the UI, which is commonly found as an issue on the internet.
To add, my specific case is using RTC 5.0.2 with Eclipse 4.2.2 (Juno), and I would like
multiple "Work Items" panels open for my workflow. One for overall reference, one for current, immediate work, and any more for what have you.
Another related source I found that all seem to speak about the similar, more prevalent issue, specifically concerning only the editor tab/panel:
How do you split a window/view in Eclipse IDE?
Edit:
I have opened an Eclipse Bug/Enhancement request for the UI here: Bug 471001 - Allow user to create duplicate panels in perspective view.
We will see how it is handled. Either my version is too old to have this feature, or it does not exist, and could prospectively be added.
So far without a firm answer, I have opened an Eclipse Bug/Enhancement request for the UI here: Bug 471001 - Allow user to create duplicate panels in perspective view.

Is it possible to make the code-completion on Netbeans automatic, like on Aptana or Visual Studio?
I've noticed that Netbeans can sometimes take a while to populate the list, so this might be asking a bit too much, but if possible, I'd like to somehow enable it.
The onlything I've found in the options is the ability to set a custom key-combo, but not to make this automatic.
I know that if you wait a bit, the auto-completion shows up anyway, but I want it to be without delay.
It appears there is a setting in some NetBeans versions that sets the delay for the popup window.
Choose Tools | Options
Choose Advanced Options
Open the Editing and then Editor Settings folders
Select Java Editor and find the Delay of Completion Window Auto Popup property
Enter a new Delay value in milliseconds (default is 250).
Article where I found it: http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=519945&seqNum=5
The problem is that this article is a couple years old, so I opened NetBeans (6.1) on my computer and looked for the property but it didn't exist for the Java Editor (It did for other editors like the XML Editor). This leads me to believe my version is newer than the one in the article and the delay property no longer exists for the Java Editor (checking couldn't hurt though).
So instead, I decided to test the delay. I made a sample project, imported and instantiated a list, and then went to call a method. I stopped at the dot to let NetBeans offer suggestions and it was basically immediate (no noticeable delay). It is at this point, I am wondering if the delay you are experiencing is due purely to performance of the computer, especially since you indicate this occurs "sometimes". It is possible that you are looking at rather large classes, and NetBeans is taking extra time to look up the completions. You could try and test to see if this is true or not by testing code completion on a known large class. The other possibility is your computer is not as fast, or is doing work for another program at the same time. You can try and test this by restarting the computer, opening only NetBeans (to maximize resources to NetBeans), and try some code completions. If either exhibit noticeably faster delays, this is most likely the problem.
Hope this helps.
I think I found a solution. I set up autocomplete keyboard shortcuts for all letters and #, it seems to work. In some cases there is a small lag, but it doesn't prevent you from typing. It took about 5 minutes to add those shortcuts.
I tried to get the desired feature by adding the alphabet to the completion selectors. It worked somewhat, you can always try it.
This works for the first two characters you type This is updated one
Goto:
Tools -> Options -> Editor -> Code Completion
