VS Code Debug Console Double Spacing - visual-studio-code

As the title says, the debug console in VS Code is double-spacing for me. I'm using the OSX edition. Seems to work fine for others from what I've seen. Have tried it with multiple programs and it always double spaces.
I can't seem to find any setting to change this behaviour. Anyone able to help?
Thanks.

After searching and testing I came to github where I filed a bug for this. It seems that it was known already under a different issue ID already, see https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/17526 for details.

Variables panel not showing when debugging any language in VSCode

I used Python with VSCode for the first time in a while. When I went to debug the script I'd written, I couldn't see any variables in the debug panel. It's not just that none are showing up - there's not even a section where they would be appearing - please see the screenshots below.
When I right click on the three dots at the top of the debug panel, I can see "Watch", "Call Stack", and "Breakpoints", with ticks next to them, but no "Variables" option.
I swear I used to be able to see variables, and everything I'm seeing online is saying that I should be able to, but they just don't seem to be there. At first I thought it was just Python, but I've just tried to debug a simple C program and the same thing happens.
Besides this issue, the debugger seems to work just fine.
What I'm seeing:
What I'm supposed to be seeing, and what I used to be able to see:
Any information would be really helpful, it must be something daft I'm missing.
To clarify, I've tried a fresh VSCode install, which did not fix the issue.
Solution moved from #DCoxshall's question post.
Just did [a reinstall] and the issue disappeared. If anyone knows what caused it I'd still be interested in information, although the problem is now gone.

VS Code Blank Screen on Opening

When I try to open VS Code it shows a blank screen.
VS Code on opening
Then as suggested by some other answers I tried adding --disable-gpu to the target which is given as: "C:\Users\Yash\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe"--disable-gpu
On clicking OK. I have the following error.
Post the suggested solution
Please tell me what to do.
I know I am late for this answer, but unfortunately nothing worked above mentioned answers. So here is my answer:
I uninstalled the VS code completely from my machine following steps from this link: https://debug.to/1074/how-to-uninstall-vs-code-completely#:%7E:text=1%20Go%20to%20Visual%20Studio%20Code%20path.%20%25LocalAppData%25%5CPrograms%5CMicrosoft,the%20.vscode%20folder%20at%20the%20below%20path%20%25UserProfile%25
I then disabled my anti-virus software. In my case, it was Quick Heal security (expired).
I installed the VS Code again on my machine, and IT WORKED!
I have been looking into this issue since 3 days! And finally, I am happy that it is working.

VSCode WSL Weird Colors Issue

I am having the issue from these posts:
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/93356
https://dev.to/iamst0rm/fixing-vscode-color-bug-on-linux-185f
Here is a screenshot:
I tried the solutions, but they didn't do much for me.
In a desperate attempt to fix it, I updated my Ubuntu to version Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS which kind of reduced the issue but I still have it.
I added "disable-hardware-acceleration": true as per this guide: https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_40#_disable-gpu-acceleration
Is there anything else I can do, did someone else experience this issue?
Thanks so much!
I've had color issues, but not this severe graphical issue. I had tried to fix my color issues using the methods you linked. I found a solution that fixed it for me at least, you could give it a shot.
Go to this Google Docs document and follow the 5 steps under "Using colormgr from the command line". This fixed the issue on all Chromium-based applications by setting sRGB as the default color profile.

Visual Studio Code 'helping' doesn't work

I really don't know how to explain my problem. My IDE just stopped 'helping' me coding. As an example in the picture below when I used to write 'this.' the IDE should suggest me all my properties/methods. right now as you see nothing happens no matter how long I'm waiting. looks like something messed up over there, I tried to install it again but same result.
Forgot to update: after installing it again and update it -problem solved.

MATLAB help/documentation not displaying correctly

I'm having a problem with the built-in help/documentation within MATLAB 2013a (issue also present in 2012b).
Upon opening the help files the pages appear with no formatting, only plain text. Search results do appear correctly though.
I have found only one instance of someone else with this issue, on MATLAB central here. However, there are no responses to the author's question. The issue I'm having is exactly the same as described there.
I have tried removing the preference folder and relaunching MATLAB but this doesn't help.
I'm using Windows 8.1 and MATLAB 2013a.
Any help or suggestions on how to fix this would be very much appreciated.
Edit:
Thank you everyone for the feedback so far. I don't believe java to be the issue, I have the latest version installed (1.7.0_45) while MATLAB uses it's own version (1.6.0_17). Both of which co-exist on my machine.
Following horchler's thread led me to another semi-related bug report here. The following code is listed at the bottom of the workaround (the script attached to the workaround didn't fix anything unfortunately).
com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HtmlComponentFactory.setDefaultType('HTMLRENDERER');
This results in a degraded appearance of documentation pages and loss of some functionality but is still an improvement over the plain text and scrambled pages.
Hopefully from this new information we can work towards a solution!
One solution is to go back to IE-10, or to use the patch on http://www.mathworks.com/support/bugreports/989850
Which basically replaces the localnav.js at <MATLAB>/help/includes/product/scripts
The link to download!
This is an old post, but I had the same issue and have a fix (not downloading R2013b or java related). Just downgrade from IE 11 to 10: Go to System (or System & Security)->Windows Update->View Update History->Installed Updates -> Find IE11 and uninstall it. Your system should revert back to the prior installed version. This fixed the help issues.
The problem is related to Internet Explorer 11, which MATLAB uses to render its help files. I was experiencing this problem in Windows 7 and rolling back to IE 10 fixed it right up. Unfortunately, that's not an option with Windows 8.
