In this small how to we are going to see How to set vertical rulers with Visual Studio Code.

I know that can sounds crazy but I actually spent time looking for this setting…is not that easy to find. In VI you can just do

:set colorcolumn=80,120,140                                                                                                                           

And by magic for each line you will write this will appear

vi_set_colorcolumn How to set vertical rulers with Visual Studio Code

With Visual Studio Code I found this to be not so immediate. In fact you should go to

Preferences -> Settings -> Text Editor and look for Rulers

OR

Use the Search settings at the top and type rulers

rulers_settings How to set vertical rulers with Visual Studio Code

Click on “Edit in settings.json”

and in the “editor.rulers”: [] you should write 80, 120 and the result should be something like this

 "editor.rulers": [
        80, 120
    ]

What this will do is that will add 2 vertical lines, one at the 80th column and the other at the 120th column

You can decide to add more if needed and at the size you prefer.

I hope you found this useful
