I am using MS visual studio code editor Version 1.12.2 (1.12.2) on a MacBook pro on OSX Sierra.
When I want to select a bigger range with the mouse and I move the cursor with button down beyond the lower edge of my edit window, the editor starts to scroll in order to expand the selected range. That's what every editor should do, but Code does it so fast that I just can't make it to find the right position to end my selection (BTW MS Word has the same issue). Is there a way to slow down the scroll speed here?

Click Mouse. Use the Roll the mouse wheel to scroll the dropdown to select either Multiple lines at a time or One screen at a time. The former is recommended for most people. If applicable, use the Choose how many lines to scroll each time slider to adjust how quickly or slowly your mouse wheel scrolls.
Ctrl+D selects the word at the cursor, or the next occurrence of the current selection. Tip: You can also add more cursors with Ctrl+Shift+L, which will add a selection at each occurrence of the current selected text.
Update November 2020 VS Code has been updated and its settings UI also has changed. So to enable smooth scrolling in VS Code. Go to settings and just search smooth you can just enable this setting to enable smooth scrolling.
While not a solution to the scroll speed issue, there is a rather trivial workaround. Select part of the region you want selected, scroll down to the point the region to select ends and Shift-Click. Voila, whole region selected.
