The fold folding icons all appear next to the numbers on the leftmost edge. I would like them to be next to their indented guides. Is there a way to change that? I don't see anything in the settings. Is there an extension or perhaps a way I can extend my theme to do that?
I'm also already using the Guides extension and Colorize brackets, and while those are useful it would be nice to have the folding icons closer to where the actual guidelines are.
No, this is not possible as of VS Code 1.24.

Good morning.
In a markdown file, is it possible to remove the title icons (#, ##, ###, ####) in the sidebar?
They are really annoying. Spaces are enough to indicate the level of text.
Thank you.

As of v1.61.1, this is not possible.
However, there is an open issue about this on VS Code's official GitHub:
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/53992
There are proposals for a solution already. Maybe someone might pick this up and implement a configuration option for it.
Prettier is useful in most times. But, sometimes I want to put tap space in my code for enhanced reading of the code. Is there any way for put tap space in my code intentionally while using Prettier?
I think you mean tab spaces with a b not a p. if that's correct, then no, in general prettier does not allow for discretionary tabs, because it is what is known as an opinionated formatter, meaning that it has its own opinions about the way code should look.
If you want more control over your formatting, you can uninstall prettier and choose a different formatting extension instead, like beautify - or even just use the built-in VS code language features, which provide formatting and are fairly customizable.
In the settings section of VS code, you can search for terms like tab and white space to customize the behavior.
I was looking for a better code editor for my projects and wanted to give VSCode a try. But I couldn't find where to customize the syntax highlighting settings. What I actually need is to change the background color of embedded languages within a file so that I can identify different parts of the code a lot easier.
I have this PHP file which contains, HTML, CSS and JavaScript and I'd like to set different background colors for all 4 languages within this single file. Is this possible with VSCode? or does anyone know a code editor that supports this? UltraEdit supports this but it has so many other shortcomings.

Is there any way to mark Matlab code (in Matlab) via some kind of add-on? I'm looking for something similar to what Microsoft Word has with its "Review" mode where you can highlight a certain phrase/section and make a comment on the side. When I say "comment", I don't mean the regular code comments that you do with "%" in Matab.
I've googled for this, but I couldn't find anything. Anyone know if something like this exists that I may have missed? It would really help me when I'm reading someone else's code and I have to keep track of things / make comments for certain lines. Even if commenting isn't possible, it would be nice to be able to highlight certain lines via some kind of "highlighter" like the one in Word.
No. This isn't possible.
In fact, most editors and IDEs (if not ALL of them) that I know don't even support this feature as each IDE will have to be specific in the way this is implemented (à la Trojanian). The only thing that I can think of is if you print out the code in PDF, then use bubbles within the PDF viewer to tack on your comments.
However, if you want to highlight a specific line in your editor, you'll have to set this up in your settings. Go to preferences, then in the Editor / Debugger options, choose the Display option, then choose Highlight Current Line. Choose whichever colour you see fit. I'm running MATLAB R2013a on Mac OS, and this is the window I get:
You'll see the Highlight Current Line feature. Change that to whichever colour you want. I have it as gray because I do like having the current line highlighted.
I'm using IndentGuide to add Indent guidelines on in my eclipse, and it does really work well, there is just one thing can I would like to see, maybe its allready possible to do such thing.
If I'm having my mouse in a scope, is it then possible to change the active scope color, like on this image, here should indentguide show another color on the solid vertical line on line 9-13: Indent Guide image
No. It is impossible because IndentGuide is not parsing or analyzing with any languages. The scope or block or any language elements have no meanings to IndentGuide.
