Make selected block of text uppercase

Question

Can I make a multi-line selection of text all capitals in Visual Studio Code?

In full Visual Studio it\'s CTRL+SHIFT+U

Answer 1

Creator of the change-case extension here. I've updated the extension to support spanning lines.

To map the upper case command to a keybinding (e.g. CTRL+T+U), click File -> Preferences -> Keyboard shortcuts, and insert the following into the json config:

{
  "key": "ctrl+t ctrl+u",
  "command": "extension.changeCase.upper",
  "when": "editorTextFocus"
}

EDIT:

With the November 2016 (release notes) update of VSCode, there is built-in support for converting to upper case and lower case via the commands editor.action.transformToUppercase and editor.action.transformToLowercase. These don't have default keybindings. They also work with multi-line blocks.

The change-case extension is still useful for other text transformations, e.g. camelCase, PascalCase, snake_case, kebab-case, etc.
