Trying to switch to VSCode and just ran into this limitation.  \r\n\r\nFlabbergasted, I couldn't believe the justification MS mentioned in #1749 as the reason why (the layout and grouping, and key bindings).\r\n\r\nIt's a serious limitation to not be able to:\r\n\r\n```\r\n:vs \r\n:vs \r\n:split\r\n```\r\n\r\nTranslation to non-VIM gurus: it's an echo to the rants in this thread and in #1749 about not being able to split Vertically AND Horizontally - to form a grid-like editor.\r\n\r\nEnough with the \"design reviews\" - just enable the features that all other editors have, and be done with it.  If you have to change the infrastructure and groupings of tabs or whatever, make it a major version bump and tell everyone why.  Done.\r\n\r\nIt's so frustrating that I tend to just use VS code for lighting editing, and drop to a terminal for hardcore grid editing.\r\n\r\nOn my 4k 30\", or on my Macbook Pro 15\" Retina - I use the grid layout exclusively.\r\n\r\nUndocking windows would be a big plus too.  But right now, I still have to use [n]vim - so I have console open with tmux across my 3 three monitors for now and maybe a single VScode session for some prettiness on a single monitor - since VSCode doesn't support the 'grid layout' of horizontal and vertical splits at the same time."}}
