Smooth scroll in Visual Studio code

by

// Controls if the editor will scroll using an animation

  "editor.smoothScrolling": false,

// Enable this workaround if scrolling is no longer smooth after
restoring a minimized VS Code window. This is a workaround for an
issue (https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/13612) where
scrolling starts to lag on devices with precision trackpads like the
Surface devices from Microsoft. Enabling this workaround can result in
a little bit of layout flickering after restoring the window from
minimized state but is otherwise harmless.

  "window.smoothScrollingWorkaround": false

Those are the defaults, set to true for smooth scrolling (second setting only if you need it).

Also see smooth scrolling in lists and trees: v1.46 release notes adds this setting:

workbench.list.smoothScrolling for the explorer, etc.

Update November 2020
