Render spaces as dots – useful for sanity-checking files.
Go to settings; type “white space”
In the first option – “Render Whitespace” – change this from “selection” to “all”

The default colour scheme can make it difficult to see the dots. The colour can be changed. The following is from https://thenetworktransit.com/whitespace-in-vs-code/
who did all the heavy lifting here i.e. scouring the correct VS setting that is required.

Go to settings; type “Color Customization”
3rd option down – Workbench: Color Customization – click “edit in settings.jason”
Add the line:

"editorWhitespace.foreground": "ffa500"

E.g. it should look like this:

{
"editor.renderWhitespace": "all",
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
"editorWhitespace.foreground": "ffa500"
}
}

Quit and relaunch Visual Studio
