Is there a way to make Visual Studio Code Word-Wrap only specific files (.py, .cpp, etc) and not utilities formats such as .txt, .json, etc?
I just started working on a project and I need to process a lot of txt files and it's annoying not seeing how the content of the file is structured because of the Wordwrap setting.
Yes, this can be done by customizing your settings.json. The quickest way is to use the command palette CTRL+P and begin typing configure language
followed by the file type you are specifically looking to alter
you can then customize the settings as needed. The code below can be added to your settings.json file to make JSON and .txt files always use word wrapping by default
{
...
"[plaintext]": {
"editor.wordWrap": "on"
},
"[json]": {
"editor.wordWrap": "on"
}
}
