How to turn off VSCode formatting for certain sections of a file









up vote

I have the following JS in vscode:






let page = document.getElementById("page");

$$$$<h1 style="text-align:center">[this.courseNum] : [this.name]</h1>

let hr = document.createElement("hr");
/// more Vanilla JS code...





I'd like to be able to turn off the formatting for that weird JS/HTML mixture above; the line preceded by $$$$. Is there anyway to turn off formatting for a line preceded by a series of characters (such as the @formatter: off tag that Eclipse uses?). Or, more generally, is there a way to turn off the formatter for certain regions in a file?

  • I don't believe there is a general setting for this, but perhaps there is an extension with support for this.
