How to make vscode stop overriding closing parentheses on insertion
(5 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
When you have the cursor in front of a ], ) or } and you type that character, instead of inserting it vscode just moves past that character, producing ]*cursor here* instead of ]*cursor here*]. Becacuse of this, every time I actually need to insert a closing bracket I need to move to the end of the )))) to type it, instead of just being able to type it directly. So is there a way to disable this behavior(without disabling bracket auto-completion)?
Here is the same question, but for sublime text, and this guy mentions it as a side effect of auto-closing brackets.

Answer 1

I received a solution from github of vscode project.
It works for me. Edit your keybindings.json add the text below:
{
"key": "]",
"command": "editor.action.insertSnippet",
"when": "editorTextFocus",
"args": {
"snippet": "]"
}
},
{
"key": "Shift+]",
"command": "editor.action.insertSnippet",
"when": "editorTextFocus",
"args": {
"snippet": "}"
}
},
{
"key": "Shift+0",
"command": "editor.action.insertSnippet",
"when": "editorTextFocus",
"args": {
"snippet": ")"
}
}
Notice: "Shift+0" for en keyboard (, edit it for your keyboard layout.

Answer 2

It is indeed a side effect of the autoClosingBrackets setting of the editor.
If you go to File > Preferences > Settings to open the settings JSON file, you can search for "editor" or "autoClosing" and copy the entry to your user settings if you whish to change/disable it (it's enabled by default), or just copy this to disable it:
// Controls if the editor should automatically close brackets after opening them
"editor.autoClosingBrackets": false,
More on VS Code settings, as well as a list of the default settings can be found here: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/settings
If you disable this setting:
Typing a bracket or quote won't automatically add a matching, closing bracket or quote.
Typing a (closing) bracket before an existing one won't cause it to be "absorbed".
You'll have to type each closing bracket or quote yourself.
You won't be able to automatically enclose selected text with brackets or quotes by selecting it and typing just one bracket/quote. With this option disabled, the selected text will be replace with whatever you type.

Answer 3

TL;DR: currently it is not possible to disable this annoying feature.
I'v asked the same question here.
There is an open issue in their repo.
