I've never written anything in applescript, but from some light research, it's what I'd use to mimic a VBA macro on a mac.
I have two accounts that I use in Outlook, my work and personal. I'd like to create a keyboard shortcut to switch between the two.
I'm working with Outlook for Mac, version 16.69.1. I have the two inboxes saved in my "favorites" in the sidebar.
Am I missing something? Is there a shortcut for this? If not, could someone assist in creating a script?
Currently, there's no shortcut for that in Outlook's standard set, and I don't think it's an option in settings either. There is a shortcut (cmd-G) that brings a search popup to change folders, but it takes quite a few keystrokes; I'd like to speed this up. I haven't found any other questions addressing this issue.
I'm making a non-elevated software installer for Windows 10. The installer saves the application into C:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\Local\MY_APP_NAME folder. It also creates a shortcut in C:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ folder. The shortcut correctly appears in Start Menu, but it never appears in search results.
I tried rebuilding the search index and ran Start Menu troubleshooter with no luck. I'm from Poland and thus Cortana is disabled on my machine.
I investigated other shortcuts in that folder and found that some applications appear in search results while others do not. For example, a link to SourceTree appears in search results while a shortcut to R-Link 2 Toolbox do not appear there. Both SourceTree and R-Link 2 Toolbox are installed into AppData\Local folder and both shortcuts are saved to AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\. I don't see any difference between their shortcut files. Yet I can find SourceTree in search results while R-Link isn't there. This behavior isn't related to spaces in the app name. I tried renaming my app not to have a space in its name and this changes nothing.
Is there something I should do to register my shortcut for indexing?
It seems the problem was related to indexing issues of the Windows OS. It seems sfc /scannow command solved the problem and now indexing works correctly for all menu folders and apps.
Sorry for that not directly programming related question. How can I add my Visual Studio solutions to the Windows 10 start menu as "secondary tile", so I can easily access them?
Drag&Drop seems to indicate that it is possible (dragging to the start-button prints a "Pin to start menu", but nothing happens), for Edge it works flawlessly (pinning from within the browser).
I do not believe it is possible to add individual solutions to the start menu at this time.
On Eclipse, whenever I double click a tab, it fills the workspace (by hiding all other views like project tree, console, etc).
Is there any way to do this on Visual Studio?
Note: i'm not looking for full screen, just want a way to declutter the workspace but still have access to menus.
Are you after this?
Set shortcuts for the Window.AutoHideAll function and for the Window.ResetWindowLayout function. In order for the ResetWindowLayout to work, you have to export your settings (make sure you select "All Settings") with all windows expanded and then import them again.
ResetWindowLayout will restore all windows to the way they were the last time you imported your settings.
Not with double click on tab, but you can do the same with Shift+Alt+Enter key combination.
This keyboard shorcut was changed to F11 from 1.9.1 vscode version.

I was looking for that, as well, and I now just got used to using full screen (Shift+Alt+Enter), which hides a little too much, which you seem to think, as well, but does in fact still show the menus.
Looks like drby got it on this one. Just FYI. I pinged the VS team to ask about this and here is the response:
"There is no way to reverse the command automatically. For it to work as a toggle we would need to save which toolwindows were auto hidden and which ones were not when the command was run, which we don’t do (it would cause lots of interesting persistence questions, across profiles and VS sessions)."
The idea of a "Unhide All" command is what I suggested. So if you hide all then you can unhide all as well. There might be some windows you don't want to unhide but the 1 or 2 extra windows is better than not having an unhide IMHO.
I still have to use the VB6 IDE.
Unfortunately every time I start the IDE one of the buttons of the toolbar disappears. Almost always it's the Run button which goes first. Sometimes also items from the menu bar or the context menus are missing.
I have to reset the toolbars almost every time I start the IDE (Which is quite often during a typical work day). Recently I bought an IDE plugin which modifies the menu bar and requires a restart after every reset of the menu bar. (Otherwise it would crash)
I could live with just the resetting, but the restart is really annoying.
Is there something I can do?
To solve this problem:
Unload all add-ins.
Right-click on a toolbar and select the Customize... menu.
For each toolbar click the Reset... button (6 times in total).
Reload the add-ins.
For me action 3 was enough.
cf. MZTools faq (thanks to Andrea Bonafini), but these steps are originally from MSDN
It sounds like you recently bought a bad add-in. Can you get your money back? Every time I've had problems with disappearing controls in the IDE it has been due to a bad add-in. You can find out which one it is by disabling them, one by one, each time using the IDE for a while, then re-enable it and disable the next one, until the problem stops.
I still use one problematic add-in. It exhibits behavior similar to yours in that it makes the run button disappear. I avoid the problem by only loading the add-in when I need it, use it (it formats code), then I immediately unload it. If you don't use the functionality of the add-in that often, this could be an acceptable workaround.
Yea, i have this same problem with one of the add-in. But if you reset it. Shut the IDE down and open it back up again without doing anything, the IDE shouuld be able to retain the previous clean setup.
It's just guest, but:
Each graphical element on IDE (like button) is kind of resource (i.e. GDI handle).
Maybe your VB app doesn't manage these resources good enough and after sometime VB IDE cannot redraw elements like buttons (run is used often).
Also, maybe some IDE add-in is in conflict with some other add-in/application and breaks something -- I have this problem with Clip-X and MZ-Tools.
I had a similar problem when I was setting up the IDE to use for the first time, though it may not be helpful if you've been using the same IDE for a while. When I first started using the IDE, I would modify the toolbars and then close the IDE. When prompted if I wanted to save the open file I always said No, since the file was just a dummy file I was using to open the IDE with. Turns out the IDE was saving the toolbar preferences with that file, so they never got saved.
Try opening a file, customizing the UI, saving the file, then closing without modifying the code. This was the solution for me.
I've tracked down the problem and as suggested it was an add-in.
The problem went away as soon as I disabled the Visual Basic 6 Resource Editor.
How to restore your VB6 IDE without reinstalling:
Run Regedit
Find the entry for Visual Basic 6.0
Export your settings in case things
go wrong
Delete the 'UI' setting
Run VB and you will have your popup
menus back
The 'Find' button disappeared from my VB6 toolbar forcing me to select the Edit menu to use Find. I had two add-ins enabled: vbCodePrint and ResourceEditor; so I did away with both of them, turned VB6 off and back on, then put both add-ins back in and my button returned.
If you're still using the VB6 IDE, and I do amongst others, then this problem is not likely to have gone away. I use VB6 in Windows 10, and the problem is still there. But it doesn't affect me anymore.
I have had this problem a few years into using VB5 and VB6. Today, if I start VB6 directly, it may work fine the first time, but buttons will go missing the second time -- ALWAYS.
My solution, which I developed from day one:
Do whatever needs to be done to restore all your buttons. Save the Visual Basic 6.0 registry settings to a file, as suggested previously, and only keep the UI entry. Sometimes, you have to exit VB6 for it to post changes to the registry. So if this doesn't work the first time, try exiting before saving the settings.
I use my own program to launch VB6, which automatically copies my VB6 registry backup back into the registry -- by calling "RegEdit.exe /S D:\VB\IDE_Fix.reg" -- before I launch the IDE . This works every single time, and requires no action on my part.
If you read this, that means you are a programmer. You can make this work by yourself.

Reinstall,clean registry and update with SPacks etc....
