Posted by Bruce MacDonald at 7/14/2003 1:31:30 PM
VS .NET 2003 When I double click on a source file in Solution Explorer, the hourglass gets displayed and the IDE seems to hang.

Combining Dockable Windows Into a Single Pane With Tab
Posted by Tony Lin at 7/12/2003 4:00:15 PM
When I first installed VS .NET, I recall that some windows, such as Solutions and Class View, were combined into a single pane in such a way, that one could display one or the other, by selecting a tab at the bottom of the window. How can I combine two dockable windows to behave like this?...more >>

Hi, I start this thread to discuss or better say to find out "HOW TO design & build an Intellisense Editor". I just explain what I mean by the word Intellisense as I'm sure most of you know it already. I give you an example of one editor that is my target to build. It is Visual Studio .NET ID...more >>

VS2003 crashes frequently
Posted by Lee Gillie at 7/9/2003 8:35:50 AM
I've been running VS2000 for a while. It was not completely stable, and would occassionally lock up in the debugger. It very rarely crashed. I never lost any work with it though. I'm piloting into VS2003 for our team of developers, and am finding that although it never seems to lock up, it DOE...more >>

One idea I had was being able to tell when the application was running under the IDE or even in Debug mode. Any ideas on where to loo...more >>

no tooltip, intellisense, etc. for C# pages
Posted by manofsteele NO[at]SPAM 311.com at 7/8/2003 2:39:21 PM
I have always developed .net pages using vb.net with no problems. Whenever I open a c# page, the reserved words are blue and everything, but no tooltips, or intellisense. The classes and functions WILL all expand and collapse. The ide won't catch errors, and the project will build WITH errors. Th...more >>

Since installing VS.NET 2002 I have had a problem with the intellesense disappearing on C# dataset objects. Rebuilding the project that contains the class definitions resolved the problem. After upgrading to VS.NET 2003 the problem reoccured but rebuilding the project had no effect. How do...more >>

Toolbar button captions
Posted by Frecklefoot at 7/8/2003 12:23:42 PM
I've created an add-in that adds commands, a menu and a toolbar (VS.NET 2003, C#). I add the commands with captions, but I don't want the toolbar buttons to show the captions. Does anyone know how to suppress the captions so it just shows the icons (like most toolbars)? I'd hate to have to cre...more >>
