Sublime Text Duplicate for VSCode

This extension duplicates strings like Sublime Text. Anything that gets highlighted gets duplicated, rather than the entire lines even when just a part of a string is highlighted.

Use

To use these commands, press ⌘+p and enter Sublime Duplicate Text. You will also have a keybinding set for ⌘+⇧+d to duplicate text.

Keybinding installation

This extension will install the following keyboard shortcuts. The second keybinding uses native VSCode functionality, but now your experience will match that of Sublime Text.

{
  "key": "cmd+shift+d",
  "command": "sublime-duplicate-text.duplicateText",
  "when": "editorTextFocus && editorHasSelection"
},
{
  "key": "cmd+shift+d",
  "command": "editor.action.copyLinesDownAction",
  "when": "editorFocus && !editorHasSelection"
}
