Visual Studio Code is becoming my favourite editing tools. Here are commonly used functions in Visual Studio Code that I had to search around for on the internet to figure out and wanted to consolidate it into one space.
| Action | MacOS | Windows / Linux |
|---|---|---|
| Block Select | Shift+Opt+mse | Shift+Alt+mse |
| Select multiple/same text | Cmd+D | Ctrl+D |
| Select all instances of the same text | Cmd+Shift+L | Ctrl+Shift+L |
| Skip a selection from multi select | Cmd+K Cmd+D | |
| Fold All | Cmd+K Cmd+0 |
Clearing Cache for VS Code
To clear the cache, you'll want to delete the Cache, CachedData, and CachedExtensionVSIXs folders in the Configuration directories. The configuration directories can be found at:
- Windows
%APPDATA%\Code\Backups - macOS
$HOME/Library/Application Support/Code/Backups - Linux
$HOME/.config/Code/Backups
