The most under-utilized keyboard shortcut #vscode #coding #python

[jgrote]

But my code is always written correctly the first time so this is useless to me /s

Vim users: look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power

"AI will complete it for me"
AI:
["January", "February", "Maruary", "Apruary", "Mayuary", "Junuary"]

I used ctrl x (windows) for that, it cuts the line, but does the job for me

[soupnoodles]

Using vim motions without control override in vscode is the MOST powerful combination possible for an editing experience

[bkr_]

Great advice.

I have installed Vim motions, so I can just hit dd. But I have colleagues who will def benefit from this!

Thank you 👍

This is my fav shortcut it's probably hardburnt into my muscle memory now.

[luftstolle]

Scary how they even track which keyboard shortcuts we use and which are under-utilized.

[burtonrodman]

while it’s not technically “delete”, the cut shortcut (Ctrl+X) when there is no selection deletes (ie cuts) the whole line at the cursor position.

[JamieTwells]

Yes, its the first shortcut i rebind when i install vscode. I rebind it to Shift+Delete i use it so much.

[kameib]

In IntelliJ, Shift+Del does the same.

[samwise]

You can use Shift+Del too. Easier to press than those 3 buttons.

[krowven]

I use Ctrl + x bonus you get it via cut. Make sure nothing this selected in the line

And I use the windows keyboard history if I need multiple

[nezu_cc]

As an ex-Eclips user I have it bound to ctrl+d, super handy

[ExDarkx]

Oo i actually use this shortcut often!

[Jaywalked]

Don’t forget ctrl + shift + A which comments out the selected part of the code. One of my most used shortcuts

[keitsee]

I don't use word wrap because I have massive monitors. CTRL A then delete or backspace.

[menoone]

Vim users: I can do that since the start of history and it takes less key presses

[immipixediter]

I mostly use ctrl+x to delete a whole line. 😂

I just do Ctrl + X, it also copies to my clipboard but that usually works. I can't be bothered to keybind to 3 buttons when I can do it easily with two fingers.
