Debug: hide special variables and function variables

Try doing this in your launch.json:

"variablePresentation": {
    "function": "hide",
    "special": "hide",
}

Closing as the support to change how that's presented is already in the debugger backend by editing the launch.json.

You can follow microsoft/vscode-python-debugger#165 for a request to be able to set it in the settings and not only through individual launch configurations.

Here's an example of my launch.json that worked for me in VS Code

{
  "version": "0.2.0",
  "configurations": [
    {
      "name": "Attach debugger",
      "type": "python",
      "request": "attach",
      "pathMappings": [
        {
          "localRoot": "${workspaceFolder}",
          "remoteRoot": "/code"
        }
      ],
      "port": 8001,
      "host": "localhost",
      "variablePresentation": {
        "function": "hide",
        "special": "hide",
      },
    },
  ],
  
}
