As a new programmer, I can see code hint being quite useful. However, as a seasoned programmer, those suggestions that Visual Studio Code pops up as I write code block the view of code that I am writing and I have to escape it so that I can see the rest of the code.

It is quite annoying and I’ve tried to find settings to disable it without googling and I lost. So I turned to google and found this stackoverflow thread.

Basically, need to add or update these in the user settings:

"editor.parameterHints.enabled": false,
"editor.suggest.snippetsPreventQuickSuggestions": false,
"html.suggest.html5": false,
"editor.snippetSuggestions": "none",
