System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard VSCodeVim Extension I adjust the settings like this, but you should experiment with each option on your favorite text editor and see what works for you the best: That’s why I frequently need to press and hold some keys for scrolling up/down/left/right in the editor.īy default, key repeat is too slow and the delay until repeat is too long to do that fluidly. I use Vim for text editing, which means I don’t use my mouse to navigate in the text editor. It’s quite simple, and the default shortcuts are pretty good.
