Visual studio code wraps html too much - visual-studio

I have updated visual studio code to latest version.
It just changed formatting in html files. All my html file changes when i format again.
It wraps like we are coding in tablet mode leaving empty space like below
Can anyone help me with this. It creates issue when more then one developer is working on same project. Just slight different version of visual studio code changes format.

If you want to turn the wrap line length you can go to Preferences -> Settings and search for wrap. There you will find HTML › Format: Wrap Line Length and you can change that value.

Visual Studio -> wrap every parameter

Using Visual Studio 2019, I found a really useful refactoring option in 'Quick actions and refactoring':
(might come from PowerTools, whatever)
I just wondered how:
I can make this wrapping settings a default formatting settings
Or apply this formatting on my whole solution at once (without resharper)
For the later, a solution with Visual Studio Code would be perfect as well !
Thanks for your help
You can try using Rewrap extension which formats code, comments, and other text to a given line length (80 by default).
The main Rewrap command is: Rewrap Code / Comment, by default bound to
Alt+Q. Put the text cursor inside a comment line, block or plain text
paragraph and invoke the command to wrap. You can also select just a few lines, or multiple comments in one selection.
There is currently an Open request for this in the VS Code Issue tracker on GitHub

How to triple-slash selected text in Visual Studio 2010

In Visual Studio 2010 we can Comment selected text via Ctrl+E,C - This prefixes selected lines with the double-slash.
Is there a way to select text and have VS2010 prefix the selected lines with a triple-slash?
For the curious; I am adding XML comments to my c# code. Specifically, I am adding example code within the <example><code></code></example> section of my comments. I'm am building the sample code in a throw-away console app (just to make sure I'm creating code that works). When satisfied with the sample code, I copy/paste it into my app that I'm adding XML Comments to. When I paste the sample code, I have to manually add all the triple-slashes. I'm getting kinda bored doing this, so I'm hoping there is a way I can have VS2010 do this for me.
There is no built-in command to do that, AFAIK.
However, you can do it using VS's built-in advanced text-editing features.
Hold down Alt, select a zero-width column of text at the beginning of the lines, then type ///. This will type into all of the lines simultaneously.
You can select that with the keyboard by pressing Home (as applicable), then repeatedly pressing Alt+Shift+↓.

Visual studio setting or extension to highlight edited lines?

I want to be able to see background highlighting on lines I have edited in Visual Studio 2010.
I know the thin strip next to the line numbers column shows edits in Green, but this isn't large enough/obvious enough.
Is there any setting or extension to help me out?
I want something like VS10x Method Block Highlighter that comes with the VS10x Code Map extension, but I was wondering if there were any options that are free or automatically highlight edited lines.

Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2: Can I print in color?

I have to turn in a hard copy of some code with an assignment. Is there any way in Visual Studio 2010 to print C# source code with syntax highlighting?
PS: The assignment is solving a math problem, so the choice of language isn't important and the teacher doesn't need to compile and run the program. She just wants to see our approach and results.
There is an extension now :) Visual Studio 2010 Color Printing Extension
Works well! :)
The best way I've found to accomplish this is to copy from Visual Studio and paste into something like MS Word or OpenOffice Writer.
This gives you full source code, with syntax highlighting. You can then print from Word (including adding your intro documentation before the code, etc).
Just to let everyone know, unfortunately printing in color was cut from Visual Studio 2010 because of resource constraints. Since we've rewritten the editor from scratch in WPF, we didn't have time to reimplement everything so we had to sacrifice this feature. We will try to implement this in the next version of Visual Studio. For now, copy to clipboard and paste into other app such as Microsoft Word is the recommended solution for printing code with color.
If you go to Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors you can change settings to print with syntax highlighting (change 'Show settings for' dropdown to 'Printer'). But you will need to change all the individual settings to match your IDE (I don't know of a way to make it automatic)
Edit: you can use that "Use..." button next to the dropdown to copy settings from the Text Editor
Simplest of all copy code to clipboard and paste into MS-Word is the way I do and it works...
Have a look at VS.NETcodePrint 2010 availabe from www.starprinttools.com. You will be able to print and export the color coded output to PDF.

Due the fact MSVS does not support it anymore I think the best way is really to copy the code and paste it into WinWord.
The advantages are listed below. You can
set the font/size exactly how you want it.
set the format of line numbers.
have your own header/footer.
remove #region from printing.
add a watermark to the output.
For me - I print once in 2 months a source code - it is a very comfortable way which I never could achieve with any 3rd party extension.

How to remove paths from tabs in Visual Studio 2008?

Is there a way to stop the path showing in a source code tab in Visual Studio 2008?
Currently when developing an ASP.NET site, I get the path from the root plus the filename - truncated when it gets too long. So something like:
MyDir/MyPage.aspx
for a short path and filename, or:
MyDir/MyLong...yPage.aspx
for a longer path and filename.
I'd prefer to see just the filename (ie just MyPage.aspx), allowing more tabs to show at once and making it easier to see which files I have open without using the drop-down list or Crtl-Tab to show the full set.
In VS2005, I just get the filename - no path however long it is. Oddly in VS2003 I get the path and filename. I've scoured the options and I can't find a setting that lets me change what appears in the tabs. Searching suggests that other people have similar issues (although which version it occurs in appears to differ) but no-one could identify an option to change what appears.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to get rid of the paths in the tabs (or confirm that it can't be changed to save me wasting more time searching)?
Tabs Studio add-in can remove path from tab in Visual Studio 2008.
See
Removing path from tab name
blog post for the example screenshots.
In my copy of VS 2008 I just get the filename, not the path. I wonder whether it's a "web site" vs "web application" thing. Which one are you working in? Can you create a project of the other type and see if it still happens? (I'm working in a web application where I get filename-only.)
It looks like Microsoft does not allow to do it using the standard method. I'm know ReSharper allows this, but installing a big plugin for this is a bad idea. I think I have sinse found a small plugin which allows show or hide the full path. I am sure this should exist.
