Any idea on how to make the editor use the entire space?
Couldn't find much of a solution for long
Click on view and then click on Toggle Centered Layout.
I hope it will help you to solve this.
In the latest VScode versions, Toggle Centered Layout is not visible on View. You can call from command palete > View: Toggle Centered Layout.

I have been trying to get the old default view window in order to edit code.
How can I remove this extra space marked in red?
Click1: Menu
Click2: View
Click3: Appearance
Click4: Centered Layout
Untick: Show Minimap
It's called a Minimap and you can disable it under View > Show Minimap
Is there a way to make terminal span the entire width of the application without closing the sidenav? I use it quite a bit, and often I have to hide the sidenav in order to see it in full width. It would be great if I could set it up so the sidenav is just alongside the editor, allowing terminal to take up the full width of the application.
This is in Stable v1.64 now.
Go to View/Appearance/Align Panel/Justify or use the Layout Control icon on the upper right mentioned below.
Other options for the Panel alignment are center/left/right.
Note that that the Layout icon on the upper right was recently added with this setting:
Workbench > Layout Control: Enabled
Also, as of v1.75 this can be done via the context menu for the Panel. Right-click on an open space of the Panel to the right of the View headers to open the context menu:
See Release Notes: Manage Panel Alignment
It's already available since version 1.64.
Let's switch to Justify option.
**Unfortunately, it is not possible at the moment.
There is a ticket for this feature in the VSCode repository - https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/42149
UPDATE:
It's already available since version 1.64.

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.
I have kind of stupid question, but well I can't find the solution.
My menu "Package Explorer" was always on the left side of eclipse next to my workpart. Dont know when it changed to horizontal view. How can I set it to vertical again?
Click and hold the window from the title and drag it to the desired place.
you can reset to default perspective to restore your default layout:
window->Reset Perspective...
To scroll within the Eclipse editor without moving the cursor up and down one can use CTRL+Down or CTRL+Up. But what about left and right?
It is not possible. If you search keys in Eclipse's Preferences, you will find out that you only have Scroll up and Scroll down that you can set hotkeys on.
My recommendation would be changing the maximum line length in the editor.
Make your code shorter. After all, looooong lines of code are not so readable.
Also, resize your editor area. If you feel strangled, remove the Outline, TaskList, and Build view from your right side of Eclipse, and enlarge the editor.
