I have been searching for the shortcut to open visual studio code Integrated Terminal on my macbook. In the menu it say ^` (shift 6 backtick) but this is not working on my mac. I am not sure how to make a new shortcut to open the integrated terminal.
^ denotes the control key. So it's ctrl-backtick.

When I right click on a folder in the path bar and select the Open in Terminal option a VS Code window pops up instead of the classical terminal window. If I delete VS Code then the action is performed correctly and the terminal opens up. How do I disable this extremely annoying feature of VS Code?
My mac runs Ventura 13.1 and VS Code version is 1.74.3
I've just switched to macOS and I can't get the shortcuts I'm used to.
On Windows, CTRL + L cut an entire line. I can't figure out how to do it on Mac.
This OS is so frustrating... it seems to be missing all basic keyboard shortcuts.
Thanks for helping.
I figured it out.
Under Tools>Preferences... menù, on the "Keyboard Shortcuts" sections, you can select a "Visual Studio Windows" scheme and get the same shortcut you are used to under windows.
Only Visual Studio, not code. This is the 2022 Community Edition, but can also use 2019. I want to use one shortcut that will both open and close the terminal. Searched but no answers. I find a setting to open the terminal with a shortcut but none to close it as well. Anyone know if this is possible?
you can try "control shift `" if you are on window
Press from the keyboard and toggle your vs code terminal
(control+Backtick)
ctr+`
note: I am using mac
Pressing SHIFT + Esc will close the terminal window if it has focus. There is no global 'close terminal' in Visual Studio.
An alternative to using the terminal in Visual Studio could be to use the 'quake mode' in Windows Terminal (assuming you are on Windows) by pressing the WIN + ` to quickly open/close a terminal at the top of your screen.
I'm experiencing a strange behavior from the integrated visual studio code console. The text is not well-formatted and the cursor is not well-positioned:
Software versions:
Windows 10 Pro;
Visual studio Code 1.55.2;
I already tried:
Close the visual studio code and open again;
closing all instances of integrated terminals and opened them again;
Use cmd instead of powershell.
After some tests, I finally found out the PowerShell was selected as the default terminal profile. After changing it to Command Prompt, the feel and look were back to normal.
Follow the steps to change the default terminal profile:
Open the select box on the top corner of the terminal;
Choose the options "Select Default Profile";
Then select Command Prompt.
I'm testing visual studio in desktop parallels win7 running on my Macbook air. Everything works fine except that i cannot get curly braces to work inside visual studio.
The Curly braces do work Shift + right-alt 7/8 (tested in notepad) but something is overriding the key combination inside visual studio.
software specs in parallels
Windows 7
Visual studio 2012
Resharper
I think it is Resharper that is messing with me. Does anyone know how to turn off a shortcut, specifically the key combination shift + right-alt + 7/8 so i can get curly braces working again.
You can check all the different shortcuts in Visual Studio and modify them as you like.
In Visual Studio goto: Tools -> Customize and press the Keyboard button at the bottom.
Then, in the "Press Shortcut Key" TextBox just press the key combination and you'll see what command it is set to, and you can remove/redefine that combination
I had the same problem, but I finally found how it work:
for { type right-alt+5 and for [ type right-alt+shift+5
In Visual Studio 2015 the keyboard settings are at Tools -> Options under Environment/Keyboard.
I could not find the bound command by pressing the shortcut.
After some digging i discovered the command name: ReSharper_EnableDaemon. Removing all shortcuts for this command, I can now type { again.
Try to use fn + alt (right alt key) + 7/8 in your keyboard. Should fix most of those Mac parallel issues.
