Expected behaviour

The run-file-in-terminal button is located in horizontal line with the file tabs. It's location and appearance make it appear to be a tab scroll: tabs slide to the left, revealing tabs that are off the screen to the right

Actual behaviour

Script launches

Steps to reproduce:

[NOTE: Self-contained, minimal reproducing code samples are extremely helpful and will expedite addressing your issue]

1. Open many files
2. Look for one file in the row of tabs. Maybe it's hidden to the right of the toolbar.
3. Click green arrow button that looks like a tab scroll button, seen on other applications, that slides tabs to the left and brings hidden tabs into view.
4. In actuality the tool launches a script that you didn't want to launch.
5. Spend time cleaning up the results of the inadvertent script launch.

I've now done this twice.

Suggest that you alter or move the "run file in terminal" button so that it's less likely to be mistaken for a "tab scroll

" button.

Unfortunately I don't think there's anything we can really do here as that's using a VS Code API to provide that button.

Ha! I started with vscode and they sent me to vscode-python :)

Sorry for the misunderstanding! It's been quite the week and I misread it as you saying the overflow of the menu was a problem, not that the icon looked like an overflow button.

[dmcbride64]

Well... at least you didn't just close it out of hand without thinking about it.
