I might have pressed something on my keyboard by accident. The spaces on my code turned into boxes and it's annoying. How do I remove it?
You have opened the Find panel and searched for a space. Press Esc to close the find panel and the boxes will disappear. Alternatively turn off "highlight matches" in the find panel.

In IntelliJ when you tab on a shortcut, the space after the shortcut is not selected but when you do that in VSCode it is, how can I change it?
I solved it, go to settings and turn off "Editor: Insert Spaces"
How do I move the 'x' button to close an editor tab to the left side of the tab?
I searched all over the internet with no luck, but lots of other people asking the same question on various forums.
After searching endlessly for a solution to this, I found one, and decided it might be appreciated by others to know how to get their tab 'x' button on the left side.
Simply add the following to your USER SETTINGS json file.
"workbench.editor.tabCloseButton": "left",
Mac users rejoice!
Based on reka18's answer:
Click on Preferences > Settings and type workbench editor tab
Observe the option Tab Close Button, there is a drop down, click and select left.
I'm using a Mac, and I want to move the cursor to the last line of file without using Home, End, or Page Down keys.
Any idea?
I've tried "scroll to bottom" keymap but that only moves the scroll, not the caret.
There's a reserved Editor Action for this and it's named Move Caret to Text End. You can find this in the Preferences window (Preferences -> Keymap -> Editor Actions). The counterpart of this action is Move Caret to Text Bottom, in case anyone is interested.
In Mac, native text editors come with shortcuts cmd+up and cmd+down out of the box to easily jump to the top or the bottom of the page (along with the caret). You'd mostly want to adopt the same shortcuts on your PHPStorm IDE to make page navigation more seamless.
Try ⌘A, →.
But it's better to assign shortcut as #LazyOne suggested.
I pressed something accidentally on my keyboard and now I have all these annoying whitespace bubbles showing up. Does anyone know how to turn this off??
You probably need to set this in your preferences:
"draw_white_space": "none",
I have questions about the Google Apps Script Editor.
When using the Find and Replace menu in the script editor, how can you make your search case sensitive? There's no "match case" option. Is there some way with regular expressions?
I'm working on a rather small screen and since the search is normally not case sensitive I can't see when it's locating what I'm looking for.
I was also wondering if the Find/Replace popup is supposed to be moveable since I just end up highlighting text if I try to drag it. The "Find" popup in the Google Docs Spreadsheet app can be moved, I would expect this one to behave similarly.
You can drag the find box right out of the way by clicking within the single line phrase "Find and replace" and then dragging away from the central area.
Unfortunately you can't use regex (AFAIK).
There is no case-sensitive search in the editor, but it's been requested. Visit and star Issue 1593.
The search window is movable, but you need to grab something inside the dialog container. I usually grab it by the caption, "Find and replace".
I prefer to not drag the window out of the way but permanently (at least while working that day) to the far top right corner with all of the wasted padding removed.
-Right-click on the window to open the menu, choose "inspect"
-In the window that opens, look up the domain text until you see
<div class="maestro-dialog" role="dialog"
-Click on that line in the DevTools
-On the right side, change the Style settings under .maestro-dialog to be:
*uncheck the padding line
ADD
right: 20px!important;
width: 440px!important;
left: unset!important;
top: 0px!important;
The box moves and will stay there every time you open the search....so long as you don't close the window with the DevTools (of course, you can hide it, but don't click the top-right "x")
