How can I have multiple vertical rulers in VS Code?

VS Code's default configuration for a ruler is demonstrated below.

"editor.ruler": 80

The issue I am having with the default VS Code configuration (as shown above) is that it only renders a single ruler. In the Sublime Text Editor I can render as many rulers as I like using the following Sublime configuration.

"rulers": [72, 80, 100, 120]

Is it possible to render multiple rulers in V.S. Code. If it is possible, What does a multi-ruler configuration look like in VS Code?

Solution

  • Visual Studio Code 0.10.10 introduced this feature. To configure it, go to menu File → Preferences → Settings and add this to to your user or workspace settings:

    "editor.rulers": [80,120]

    The color of the rulers can be customized like this:

    "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "editorRuler.foreground": "#ff4081"
}
