I am having a problem scrolling through the pop up box after hovering over a variable. It just disappears. I want to be able to scroll through it.
I am on Windows 10 x64 using Visual Studio Code 1.41.1 with Python Extension
Set editor.hover.sticky to true.
Via settings.json:
"editor.hover.sticky": true
Via Settings UI:
As a result of Keep hover visible when the mouse is getting closer to it, in my testing in the Insiders Build v1.72 this is much better. It should be in Stable v1.72 early October, 2022.
From the 1.72 Release Notes
Improved hover
The editor hover used to be quite aggressive in hiding itself,
especially when the mouse was going over an empty area of the editor.
This would make it very difficult to reach some of the actions shown
in the hover. Now, the hover will stay visible as long as the mouse is
moving towards it. The setting "editor.hover.sticky": false will
continue to work as before:
[The Editor > Hover: Sticky setting isn't the real problem, the problem is that the hover disappears before you even get the mouse to it.]

I was working on the visual studio application.
And suddenly, my window control buttons hopped to the left side of the main menu navbar,
hiding the buttons File & Edit.
Does anyone know how to re-placing the windows control buttons back to the right side of the navbar?
In vscode v1.71.2 the window.experimental.windowControlsOverlay.enabled setting has been disabled by default.
This bug was released in vscode v1.71. It may be related to using RTL languages. I would assume this will be fixed in a point release.
Try disabling this setting:
window.experimental.windowControlsOverlay.enabled
from [windows default close button location moved on its own when updating to v1.71.0][1]

I have a problem where when I move my mouse cursor over the editor in vs code. It scrolls automatically to end of line, it started when vs code was updated. i checked all of my extensions and disabled them all. and still it happens. Not only when my project files are open but when any config for anything in vs code (including vs code settings). It happened before but went away when I fiddled with editor word warp and disabled horizontal scroll but it wont go away now. Please help I don't know what to do and its driving me nuts to the point I cant work on anything now.
I want to move the intellisense popup window to the left side.
How can I do this?
I tried this solution but it did not help me.
How to make VSCode Intellisense window wider
change width
For adjusting the width, you can drag the right side of the window now, see this SO post for an old animation.
On mac the right of the popup will turn blue when hovered (cursor isn't captured in screenshot) and can be resized. You can also resize vertically by hovering the bottom. It looks like this on mac (not sure about other OS):
change position
The new version (October 2021 (version 1.62)) makes it easy to move the position... sort of. You can now choose to have the editor above or below what you hover. So glad they added it as a feature. This wasn't exactly the problem you had, but when I first searched for moving the intellisense menu, it led me here, so figured I'd add this for others Google sends here.
Simply add the following to settings.json file:
"editor.hover.above": false
Add a comma after it if you have more settings below it:
"editor.hover.above": false,
"editor.minimap.enabled": false
You can try to configure intellisense within VScode using the steps in https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/intellisense#_customizing-intellisense, though I am not sure if your particular issue could be solved this way.
Recently in VS Code, somewhere around v1.42 or v1.43, we gained the ability to move around the following windows/panels that used to be stuck in the panel:
Terminal
Output
Debug Console
Problems
They could be split into multiple items in the panel itself (side-by-side or top/bottom, depending on whether the panel was at the bottom or left/right), and even dragged into the side-bar.
This was great, but after moving all of these windows to the side-bar while experimenting, I can't find any way to move them back into the panel. The panel is now empty, except for 3 dots (an ellipsis) in the upper left corner. You can still hide/show the panel, and move it left, bottom, or right, but there is nothing in it, and you can't drag anything to it. Dragging the terminal into the panel shows an icon that looks like it will successfully move (it's not the icon with the circle/cross-out you get other places it won't drop), but when releasing the click-drag, nothing happens.
I had just upgraded to v1.45.0 when this happened. It appears to be a defect, unless I'm missing something. Does anyone have a way to put the terminal or one of these other windows back in the panel, or reset their position? I combed the settings, and tried to find default setting's files (system or user) that might hold info on what is in the panel vs. the sidebar, etc., but couldn't find anything via search or on my PC. Any ideas?
Note: This is NOT about moving the panel between the left/right/bottom positions, or selecting the terminal/output/etc. in the panel itself. That's "old news", this is a recent feature.
Here is a view with the Terminal, Output, Debug Console, and Problems put at the top of the sidebar toolbar, and Terminal focused. The Panel is just to the right of the sidebar window, set to the "left" position, completely blank and useless. The "welcome" window on the far right side:
And here are my current settings:
See this issue https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/96117 (Empty panel behaves weird)
Suggested fix:
Run the command View: Reset View Locations in the command palette.
