Region/folding is not supported?

[stt106]

I see that VS Code supports region/folding for some language e.g.
//#region My Region
some code
//#endregion

But dart is not supported. Am I doing something wrong or this will be added later?

This is not currently supported. As far as I'm aware, //#region is not a Dart construct so these are just treated as comments and won't generate foldable regions.

We implemented folding in the Dart Analysis Server in the SDK so that it can be re-used across editors so supporting this would have to come from the SDK, so this should be raised in the SDK repo.

ok thanks.

//#region and //#endregion work in the Android Studio and Intellij as well.

@engmsaleh Don't work in VSCode, only Android Studio and Intellij.

Not the real solution for the problem, but for those just searching for a workaround:

Its a Addon that works for many languages, including dart.

It's a real solution for me :), works very well.

This one worked for me also, and I really love regions, so thank you very much for mentioning.

FWIW, it's not what was asked here but it's related.. VS Code now allows folding of arbitrary blocks of code (regardless of language), but you need to create them through a command, they're not marked in the source code:
