Python Editor Column 80 Visual Aid #7950

Closed vsfeedback closed 2 months ago

vsfeedback commented 2 months ago

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.

Since Python coding best practices (PEP 8) recommends keeping line length to less than 80 characters, draw a faint medium gray vertical line between columns 79 and 80 when editing Python code. Obviously, that could be a configurable option.

This would be similar to the editor.ruler setting in vscode that renders vertical rulers after a certain number of characters. As this is more of an editor feature rather than a PTVS-specific feature, we will transfer this proposal to discussion for now. If it receives more upvotes, we can bring it up to the editor team for consideration.
