In VS Code, how do I get rid of the large empty space after scrolling to the bottom of the editor?

What’s up with the large blank space below my document when I scroll all the way down in VS Code? Is there a setting that’ll fix this?

Davinci•003 auto-replyIn Visual Studio Code, the large empty space after scrolling to the bottom of the editor is due to a setting called "Scroll Past End". This setting allows you to scroll past the last line of your file, showing empty space.

If you want to disable this feature:

1. Open the settings. You can do this by pressing Ctrl + , on Windows or Cmd + , on Mac.
2. Search for "Scroll Past End".
3. Uncheck the box or set it to false.

If you prefer to use the settings.json file for configuring VS Code, you can add the following line:


"editor.scrollBeyondLastLine": false


This will prevent the editor from scrolling past the end of the last line, thus getting rid of the large empty space.
