I saw on a video presentation about TypeScript this icon in Visual Studio Code:
It looks like a git extension, but which extension is that? I would like to try it...
What about this other one?
It looks like they are useful extensions...
The first view / icon is from the GitLens extension.
The second view is actually built into VSCode. It shows "Find References" results, and consequently it only appears when Find References that has been executed in the current VSCode session.

I have a code with many comments, how can I hide these ones, but no delete, I need them after.
I need to hide all the comments in one click, not a simple collapse one
Can't find such feature as well.
Read this issue from GitHub - https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/46505
Seems like that VSCode can't do it (from the box) and all people waiting for that feature.
I was looking for a way to do that too as I put way too many comments making it hard to debug... and I came across this https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=eliostruyf.vscode-hide-comments it makes all the comments invisible, but it leaves special characters in place. There are also commands to toggle show/hide.
Hide Comments - Visual Studio Marketplace
We now have an extension for that. On the editor title, a toggle action is available to show/hide the comments quickly.
You can download from inside Visual Studio 2022 called unobtrusive code and it will hide all comments and put "+" symbols on the collapsed line to the left of your code that you can open or close them with. It works great.
*** TO GET THE EXTENSION: ***
I went to the Extensions menu at the top of VS 2022 and chose manage extensions.
Then in the manage extensions window that opens up, choose online then Visual Studio Marketplace. In the search at the top right of the manage extensions window type in unobtrusive code. download it and then exit Visual Studio. You should see a window pop up to install it.
When you start VS 2022 again and open a C# script, it should have all the comments minimized to the "plus symbols" to the left of the code!
Hope it works for anyone wanting to hide their comments.
I would like to have an additional feature in Visual Studio Code - essentially the "Scope to This" from the full Visual Studio Solution Explorer.
It is basically a context menu (right click) entry in the File Explorer of Visual Studio Code - which then should limit which files and folders are displayed.
Is such a thing possible with a Visual Studio Code Extension?
I never built an extension for VS Code before and would like to know if this is even possible or if I would just waste my time.
According to the API docs, there is no way to filter visible files in the Explorer like it can usually be done with the files.exclude setting. However, it is possible to open another folder with the workspace.openFolder complex command. This will probably also close all opened editors, and forget about the original workspace root path.
Your extension would need to remember the initial root path and opened editors to undo this "Scope to This" menu, and reopening everything every time could cause quite some lag.
You can't customize the normal explorer view.
However, you can do something like this with custom views. It allows you to create a new explorer view that can list what you want and behave as you want.
For an example implementation, check the vscode-code-outline.
If you can add a context menu entry separately too.
I have recently switched from Sublime Text to Visual studio code, but there is something that i truly miss, and it is the scroll bar at the top right corner of the which shows a smaller version of the file being edited (I don't know the exact name).
I find it pretty useful to navigate through my files, especially when i want to start deleting blocks of code i have commented out, before i submit my code.
Is there any plugin to get this on visual studio code, or is there any ongoing plans in order to implement it? Thanks!
Tracked in this feature request: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/4865
according to the documentation here I can add multiple cursors in visual studio code by using alt+Click in the editor. Sadly alt+drag is already used by the window manager to move the window around, so visual-studio-code does not get any key events. So how do I change that keyboard configuration in visual studio code? I could not find anything in the default key combinations file.
I am not looking for solution that changes my window manager, I really like that behavior and use it very frequently already for a very long time.
The easiest way in my opinion is:
From the top-level menu, click on
Selection -> Switch to Ctrl+Click for Multi-Cursor
Then you can use Ctrl+Click rather than Alt+Click.
You can see where this is in this screenshot:
My VSCode version is 1.24.1
There is currently no way to do this but already an open issue on GitHub which addresses that.
Are there any plug ins for mentioned IDEs that let me see the whole text file similar to how sublimetext does it? See their website, to the right of the text there is a super minimized overview of the entire file. Amazing feature which makes me want to change to it but i rather want an IDE :/ so i hope eclipse or visual studio might have something similar?
Visual Studio has a plugin called ProgressiveScroll which works on 2010+
It hasn't been updated for a while but seems to work okay in 2013.
Eclipse now has a built-in feature like this since version 4.9, called Minimap.
You can access it from Window -> Show View. If it's not in the list, click Other... at the bottom, and it's under General.
