How to disable IntelliSense in VS Code for Markdown? -

i don't want word completion markdown files in visual studio code, how disable it? ideally, markdown in worst case, global switch good.

intellisense suggestions in vs code can configured globally or per each workspace , of 1.9 per file-type (language), using editor.quicksuggestions, editor.acceptsuggestiononenter , editor.suggestontriggercharacters settings.

// controls if quick suggestions should show or not while typing "editor.quicksuggestions": true, 

file-type settings (preferred, of 1.9 release)

open command palette pressing f1 , run configure language specific settings command, select markdown. new editor pane open can place settings:

// place settings in file overwrite default settings {   "[markdown]": {     "editor.quicksuggestions": false   } } 

this way you'll disable intellisense markdown files only.

global

open command palette pressing f1, type open user settings , press enter. new editor pane open can place settings:

// place settings in file overwrite default settings {     "editor.quicksuggestions": false } 

workspace

workspace settings allows set custom settings without applying them other vs code projects. workspace settings file located under .vscode folder in project.

open command palette pressing f1, type open workspace settings , press enter. new editor pane open when can place same snipped listed above.

i don't know if it's possible associate settings selected filetypes.

other options configure

in addition editor.quicksuggestions several other options can changed further customize how intellisense works:

// controls if quick suggestions should show while typing "editor.quicksuggestions": false,  // controls if suggestions should accepted "enter" - in addition "tab". helps avoid ambiguity between inserting new lines , accepting suggestions. "editor.acceptsuggestiononenter": false,  // controls delay in ms after quick suggestions show up. "editor.quicksuggestionsdelay": 10,  // enable word based suggestions "editor.wordbasedsuggestions": false,  // controls if editor should automatically close brackets after opening them "editor.autoclosingbrackets": false,  // controls if suggestions should automatically show when typing trigger characters "editor.suggestontriggercharacters": false
