#region Support

[0xLeon]

I know it's not usual in the Python environment, but adding support for regions, which are in turn supported by VSCode since 1.17[1], would be a really nice feature. Often I work with large classes which have a lot of methods, which are grouped already, but being able to completely fold all regions I'm not working on right now would make for a smoother editing experience I think.

VS Code supports Python folding out of the box

See also default Python config file in (Windows)
C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\extensions\python

	"folding": {
		"offSide": true,
		"markers": {
			"start": "^\\s*#region\\b",
			"end": "^\\s*#endregion\\b"
		}
	}

You need to hover over margin to see the marker. It is controlled by

works fine until you format the document. then '#region' becomes '# region' and the functionality does not work.

@lpravda can you file a separate issue for this? I assume you have formatOnSave turned on?

when i use Shift+Alt+F, "#region" -> "# region"

@lpravda @B3Bo1d
you can change
C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\extensions\python\language-configuration.json(in windows) or
/Applications/Visual\ Studio\ Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/extensions/python/language-configuration.json(in mac) as follows, and reopen vscode then it should works for "# region"

	"folding": {
		"offSide": true,
		"markers": {
			"start": "^\\s*#\\s*region\\b",
			"end": "^\\s*#\\s*endregion\\b"
		}
	}

[lpravda]

works like a charm :)

This landed upstream in VS Code 4 minutes ago, so should be able to validate this in a day or so in the Insiders build.
