PowerShell code folding is not working for here strings

[imacks]

still no code folding if using here strings :(
or #region for that matter.

function New-VSCodeCannotFold {

$I = @'
cannot fold
'@    

#region Can't fold a region

$b = 'foobar'
$c = 'foobar'
$d = 'foobar'

#endregion

}

This is a VSCode issue at this point in time. It supplies the folding based purely on indentation level. It does not allow the extension/language to participate in determining what folds. See microsoft/vscode#3422

Yep, unfortunately we can't help with that at the moment. I'm hoping that the code folding feature is going to be improved in the near future.

[daviwil]

I'm going to re-open this issue as a way to track the common request that code folding be improved. This is an issue that still needs to be fixed by the VS Code team.

Information: #region does work inside functions which the first 4 spaces. But not outside a function, or after 5 spaces and more. See more in closed issue #129

[robplank]

Adding a comment block inside of a function also impact the folding of code

and
<#

Yup, same issue. VSCode folds based on indentation level. The language extension does not get a chance to participate in code folding to provide more semantics-aware folding. Too bad. I hope VSCode can add this before too long.

I would love to be able to fold at #region as well.

Does a new GitHub issue need to be created for #region/#endregion support?

edit: Nevermind? If I read this correctly, the issue is a limitation with VS Code's code folding feature?

[daviwil]

@sgtoj yep, #region/#endregion support falls under this category as well.
