How do I turn off notifications globally in visual studio code. Not individual notifications from plugins, but every notification.
These are the popups that slide in from the top, displaying Error/Info/Upgrade/Activity messages.
It would be nice if this is system wide setting.
Couldn't find a simple way to do this through VSCode's configuration. One way to hack this temporarily that seems to work though is cmd-p, enter > developer choose options with toggle developer tools. Chrome inspector opens. To disable all toasts set the style .notifications-toasts to display: none.
You can also try:
/* append this to Microsoft VS Code/_/resources/app/out/vs/workbench/workbench.desktop.main.css */
.monaco-workbench > .notifications-toasts.visible {
display: none;
}
.notifications-toasts {
display: none;
}
If you are referring to the "This extension has an update... etc" toasts that pop up from the blue status bar:
Right-click the bell icon and select 'Hide Notifications' from the menu.
It looks there will be a Do not Disturb mode in vscode v1.69 (it is in Insiders now). It turns off all the notification pop-ups (warnings, info, etc.) but not for errors.
command: Notifications: Toggle Do Not Disturb Mode (unbound by default)
or
click the bell icon in the lower right and click on the slashed-bell icon in the pop-up to enable Do Not Disturb mode. Same to disable the mode.
There is also a setting to determine how Zen Mode and this Do Not Disturb mode will interact, see the setting:
Zen Mode: Silent Notifications
Add this to settings.json:
"update.mode": "none",

This beauty appeared after a recent update, and it is very distracting to me.
I searched through the menus, but didn't find any setting to remove it. Is there any way to banish it from the editor?
This is called the minimap, and, as stated in that link,
If you would like to disable minimap, you can set "editor.minimap.enabled": false in your user or workspace settings.
Once you save the settings file, the minimap will be gone.
You can also toggle the minimap from the Command Palette. You can go to 'View' and select Command Palette or just Ctrl+Shift+P and type in the word 'minimap', you will instantly get the option to toggle the minimap.
Click on "File" -> "Preferences" -> "Settings"
After Settings open, in "search settings" or press "Ctrl+f" type "editor.minimap.enabled" this will take you direct to the settings. On left of it edited option will be available right click to it. And set it to "false"
After wards you can see the right side pane is hide.
Ctrl + Shift + P write Toggle minimap and hit enter and it's gone.
While all the answers here will accomplish what the original question asks, they are showing a dated, manual way of hiding the minimap. Current versions of Code have a "Toggle Minimap" item in the View menu, which will hide the minimap without the need to edit anything manually in User Settings.
That view is called Minimap. To toggle, goto:
Toolbar -> View -> Toggle Minimap
I know of 3 ways to show/hide it.
View -> Show Minimap
Ctrl+Shift+P -> Toggle Minimap
Settings.json -> "editor.minimap.enabled": false
I also made a Youtube tutorial here demonstrating all three ways.
In VS,
Click on View on the top toolbar,
Then you will get a pop up, unselect --- Show minimap
Oowekyala's answer is correct. I am adding a description with image for better understanding. Here is the number from 1 to 5 that describe the steps. Firstly click on File->Preferences->Settings. Then you will get User Setting page. Next, type "editor.minimap.enabled" in the search box(step-4). you will get setting option. On left of it edited option(step-5) will be available right click to it.
Go to Preferences->Settings Under text-editor dropdown go to Minimap and there uncheck the enable of a minimap.
This thing is called minimap
to toggle is on and off
crtl+p
then search for ">minimap"
then just click enter
And if you again want to use it, repeat above step's again
Simply Click F1 a text box will appear search for minimap
and select View:Toggle MiniMap
2022 Update
The latest 2022 version of VS Code (1.73.0) now makes this even more simpler. Simply do the following to remove the minimap:
Right click anywhere on the minimap and toggle the Minimap option.
To reactivate the minimap, right click anywhere on the scroll bar and toggle the Minimap option.
From the View menuitem in Visual Code main menu, click on Toggle Minimap
On Windows.
Visual Code version 1.20.1
On Mac: Code - Preferences - Settings, and in the right panel add the following line:
"editor.minimap.enabled": false
Please care the commas, this file needs them after each but the last line. (It will warn you if a comma is missing.)
Tools -> option ->Text Editor -> All Languages -> Scroll Bars -> Behavior
toggle between the 2 options (use bar mode .. & use Map mode ... ) given that "Show vertical scrollbar " option is checked.

Is it possible to get tabs instead of the select list when using multiple terminals from the "integrated terminal" window?
Terminal "tabs" appear to be coming to v1.56. See Terminal Tabs release notes. They are vertical tabs - always visible, if you want, in a resizable view to the left or right. Not like traditional tabs across the top like a browser though.
Tabs in the terminal [are] available as a preview feature and can be
enabled with the following setting:
"terminal.integrated.tabs.enabled": true
The tabs view is a split pane to the right of two split terminals. It
contains icons and labels for each terminal instance.
When enabled, the new tabs view will only show by default when there
is at least 2 terminals.
We've tried to mostly align how the new tabs behave with how the
explorer works, here are some of the other behaviors:
Double clicking the empty space will create a new terminal.
Double clicking the sash will toggle the tabs view width between the "ideal" size which displays all the titles without truncating and a
narrow view that shows only the icons.
The tabs can be moved to the left side using the terminal.integrated.tabs.location setting.
Various other configuration settings available under terminal.integrated.tabs.
Terminal Statuses
Along with tabs, we have introduced the concept of statuses to the
terminal. A terminal can have many statuses, each of which represents
a state the terminal can be in temporarily, with the highest severity
one being displayed next to the tab. Status icons appear to the right
of the terminal title in the tabs view. On hover, details of the
status and any associated actions are presented.
On a tab associated with a terminal that requires a relaunch, a
yellow triangle with an exclamation mark is to the right of the
terminal title.
For now, these states are supported:
Relaunch needed: A warning icon status is used if extensions want to change a terminal's environment.
Disconnected: A plug icon status is used when the terminal loses its connection with its process.
Bell: A bell icon appears when the bell is enabled via the terminal.integrated.enableBell setting and the terminal bell
triggers.
We plan to support task states soon so that task run status is
available at a glance even without activating the tab.
And more at the link. From the Insiders Build:
NO EXTENSION REQUIRED, as docs say:
Ctrl+Shift+5
If enough space, you can press it multiple times. However, as always, extensions might be more sophisticated for the job.
They are called "Terminal Tabs" and you can un-check them to turn them off. Go to your VS code setting User->Features->Terminal and look for the section called "Integrated > Tabs:Enabled" and un-check it.

Is there a way to hide this:
I am doing videos using vscode and I would like to have an empty startup screen.
This can be disabled with Workbench > Tips: Enabled setting (toggle). Or just add "workbench.tips.enabled": false in settings.json
Not sure if this disables anything else though. This also leaves VS Code logo enabled. User and Workspace Settings Docs says:
When enabled, will show the watermark tips when no editor is open.
I can't find any option, setting, or keyboard shortcut that disables or hides that annoying scrollbar. I just don't find it useful and it's distracting.
Can't just edit the editor's CSS like Atom, either.
Remove Minimap
Add the following to your settings.json file
"editor.minimap.enabled": false
Note that, as pointed out in another answer, this process has now been simplified to:
View->Show Minimap
Remove the Overview Ruler
Add the following to your settings.json file
"editor.hideCursorInOverviewRuler": true
This will keep the scrollbar, but will result in it only appearing when the cursor is within the editor, as seen in the image below:
Completely remove scrollbars (requires restart)
If you would like to completely remove the scrollbars, add the following to your settings.json file (note the editor will say "Unknown configuration setting" - ignore this. It will still work):
"editor.scrollbar.horizontal": "hidden",
"editor.scrollbar.vertical": "hidden"
This will result in the scrollbars not being visible even when the cursor is in the editor, as seen in the image below:
Ctrl + Shift + P -> Open User Settings
"editor.minimap.enabled": false
Try this,
view->toggle minimap
or after version 1.43
view->show minimap
Removing the scroll bar
These no longer work:
"editor.scrollbar.horizontal": "hidden",
"editor.scrollbar.vertical": "hidden"
However, this will set the size of the scroll bar to 0:
"editor.scrollbar.verticalScrollbarSize": 0,
The toolip says "Unknown Configuration Setting" but it works for me.
(Visual Studio Code 1.39.2)
So this is an unofficial method as instructed on accepted answer by #badfilms. You can read about it here
After adding, restart vscode:
"editor.scrollbar.horizontal": "hidden",
"editor.scrollbar.vertical": "hidden"
This gives and "Unknown configuration settings", ignore it.
Then to remove the scrollbar seperator or ruler border, add this:
"editor.overviewRulerBorder": false
Goto View and deselect Minimap.
tested Visual Studio version: VS Community 2017 Version 15.8.2
Tools --> Options
Search for "scroll"
click on "Text Editor" title from the results on the left side.
click "Use bar mode for vertical scroll bar" under "Behavior" section and then click "OK"
Here is a screenshot:
You can toggle it from the top bar "View > Show Minimap",
But you can also define it as a keyboard shortcut!
Go to: "File > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts"
Search: "Minimap"
Select: "View: Toggle Minimap"
Select the keyboard you wish to link (I used Ctrl+M)
In Visual Studio 2019
Right click on the scroll bar and select "Scroll Bar Options" from the context menu.
This will display the settings for the Scroll Bars.
Under the Behavior heading halfway down, select "Use bar mode for vertical scroll bar" then click Ok. This removed the map mode from the bar.
View --> Show Minimap -click it to uncheck it-
Just to update the situation, in the past the settings mentioned above worked, despite showing an unknown configuration error, after a reload, because they had not been officially exposed to users. With v1.58 these settings will be "official" and not require a reload.
editor.scrollbar.vertical - 'auto' | 'visible' | 'hidden'
editor.scrollbar.horizontal - 'auto' | 'visible' | 'hidden'
editor.scrollbar.verticalScrollbarSize - number
editor.scrollbar.horizontalScrollbarSize - number
editor.scrollbar.scrollByPage - boolean
See Expose editor scrollbar options and react to them being updated.
once you go to the user setting it has default setting left had side as bellow and
there is a pensile mark on where click and automatically appear true false then right had side custom setting change. Thats how I did it thanks Alexandru.
think this may help you.
Default value of Scroll Beyond Last Column is 5 which does horizontal scrollbar visible and operate. Set the value to 0 removes horizontal scrollbar.
Settings options
for hidden scroll bar add into setting.json
`"window.scrollBarVisibility": "hidden",`
for hidden minimap add :
"editor.minimap.enabled": false,

Then change this values as on screenshot:
