<p dir="auto">When I use Code on a touch-enabled device with a stylus rather than a mouse, it is very difficult to use the folding gutter, as it is hidden unless the pointer is hovering over it. While having that gutter hidden when I am not using it nicely reduces visual noise, there are times that I need it to always be there.</p>
<p dir="auto">Why not provide a configuration item that allows the user to switch between having it be always visible or only visible on hover?</p>
<p dir="auto">I think there should be a triple state value instead of a boolean in the settings.json. So one can choose between don't show folding, show folding on hover and alwasy show folding.</p>
