VS Code Scroll Map (Minimap)

Finally! Version 1.10 brings this long missing feature. Official announcement

No need to edit any settings! It's enabled by default.

Additional settings in Minimap (For love of Minimap):

1) to render blocks instead of characters for better visualization on the Minimap:

"editor.minimap.renderCharacters":false

2) highlight slider on the map:

"editor.minimap.showSlider": "always"

This is a top request in User Voice. Currently not implemented in product nor as an extension.

Finally, we have the code mini-map feature in the February 2017 release (1.10)!

To enable it, open your editor settings and add the following

"editor.minimap.enabled": true
