Multiline starred jsdoc-like comments in VS Code

Question

I want to comment out my code in this style

/**
 * This is
 * A multiline comment
 */

Is it possible to do with a shortcut?

EDIT 1:

https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/50301 Address this issue, however it does not work with a shortcut. I want to be able to select a block of code and comment it out in the style above

Answer 1

How to comment out multiline/single line in VS Code:

• macOS:

  Shift + Option + A

• Windows And Linux core:

  Shift + Alt + A

How to remap/change these shortcuts?

Windows : File > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts.

MacOS : Code > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts.

You can search through the list both by keybindings (key names) and command names.

Answer 2

I use this type of comment in VS Code but I don't think there is an shortcut for this. I usually do this by typing /**

Then JSDoc Comment is toggled and you can use that.

/**
 * This is
 * A multiline comment
 */
