How to Make Copilot Next Edit Suggestions Less Distracting
The Problem
You have NES (Next Edit Suggestions) enabled, but the suggestions are always visible in the editor, making the code harder to read.
NES is useful, but the constant visual noise hurts code readability. You’d prefer to see suggestions only when needed.
The Solution
The editor.inlineSuggest.edits.showCollapsed setting lets you collapse NES so it only shows when you interact with it.
How to Configure
- Open Settings with
Ctrl + , - Search for
showCollapsed - Check “Editor > Inline Suggest > Edits: Show Collapsed”
Example settings.json
{
"editor.inlineSuggest.edits.showCollapsed": true
}The default is false (always expanded). Setting it to true collapses NES suggestions so they only appear when you press Tab or hover over the gutter arrow.
Behavior Comparison
| Value | Behavior |
|---|---|
false (default) | NES suggestions are always visible in the editor |
true | NES suggestions are collapsed; shown on Tab or hover |
Summary
Enable editor.inlineSuggest.edits.showCollapsed to keep NES functional while reducing visual clutter in your editor.
