Visual Studio 2015 Peek Definition Icon not shown - visual-studio

I updated Extensibility Tools today.
I found Peek Definition is not working.
Anybody can help me to make it work.
Thanks
Joon

I found and made it enabled as follows:
Tools -> Options ->Text Editor ->All Languages ->CodeLens and check Enable CodeLens checkbox.

Visual Studio Missing stuff in Tools Options

So I started using VS 2013 over a year ago now, but I never noticed I was missing options until I tried to use TypeScript and set the "Automatically compile ..." to true.
The only (Tools -> options -> text) Editor items I have are (General, JavaScript, CSS Advanced, HTML). (See Pic)
I am also missing a lot of other things in Options that everyone else seems to have.
I thought maybe I just didn't include stuff when I installed, but when I go to add optional features through (Add Remove Programs -> Modify) everything is checked except "Blend for Visual Studio". (See Pics)
I can't find anything on the web relating to my problem. Can anyone give me some direction.
I do see a "Show all settings" checkbox at the bottom, did you try checking this?
I don't personally use visual studio but I know there are differences between version offerings. https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/compare-visual-studio-products-vs.aspx
Have you checked which versions those with these options are using?

Visual Studio disable spelling check

How can I disable spelling check in Visual Studio 2010? By spelling check I mean in comments, string etc, not in actual code
In the Visual Assist X Options dialog on the Underlines page, uncheck the "Underline spelling errors in comments and strings" option.
Cory - This will disable syntax highlighting.
This is probably an extension you have installed. You needs to disable it in the extensions manager or configure it not to check spelling.

For example in my install spell checking is provided by Visual Assist. If I disable this extension then the squigglies in comments go away.
I'm fairly certain VS2010 doesn't have a built in spell-checker, however, the C/C++ options contain IntelliSense which can cause "red squiggles." Here's how to disable those:
Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Advanced
Under "IntelliSense" will be an option called "Disable Squiggles." Set it to true.
Had this problem in Visual Studio 2019. Turned out it was my Resharper extension. Extensions->Resparper->Options->Tools->Respeller->Enable Respeller (uncheck)
in javascript I solved this by going to Tools > Options > TextEditor > Javascript > advanced > Uncheck Show Syntax Errors.

VS2012 is missing "format document" feature

I have VS2012 Pro installed, and there is no "Format Document" feature under Edit -> Advanced. I used this all the time in VS2010, and would like to continue using it. Is it just not available in the Pro version of 2012?
It is missing from the menu but you can still access is via shortcut
Ctrl+E,D
If you're talking about other types of files other than .cs, I think VS will generally go by the file extension.
I was trying to edit a .txt file with xml in it and couldn't get the menu option or the shortcut keys to work. Then renamed the file to .xml and all was good.
In VS2012 the command is there as well. It depends on the current settings. I still have it under Edit -> Advanced where it shows the Ctrl + E + D shortcut that is assigned to it.
Please check the following:
Go to Tools -> Options -> Keyboard and check which additional keyboard mapping scheme is applied in the drop down on top. For me it states "Visual C# 2005"
Then, as Jarek already suggested search in the 'Show command containing' for 'Edit.FormatDocument' and see if there is a shortcut assigned now.
Which kind of environment have you choosen when installing VS 2012? Was it for C#? If you want to change that you can do it unter Tools -> Import and Export Settings as described here
Last but not least I'm not sure any more if this function actually is part of Visual Studio 2012 itself (I'm 98% sure it is, but 98 is not 100) so please check if installing the PowerCommands extension solves this issue (Even though the name suggests that they are only for VS 2010 they also support VS 2012). Note that the PowerCommands are also integrated now in the ProductivityPowerTools directly.
It's called "Reformat Selection" in XML Editor toolbar.

Resharper: enum suggestions not fired automatically

VS2008 has nice enum suggestions eg if you press space after "=" and enum value is expected it automatically suggest all enums.
Noticed it gone after installing R#
Do you know how make it working back ??? Lack of this is really pain...
It's a bug that has been reported here. If you'd like to encourage JetBrains to fix it, sign up on their Jira site and vote/watch/comment on the bug.
There is no workaround apart from not using Resharper at all.
You may want to disable the R#'s IntelliSense (and use VS buit-in IntelliSence instead).
In Visual Studion, goto ReSharper (menu) -> Option -> IntelliSense -> General -> Visual Studio
I'm using R# 6

Customizing Visual Studio's Intellisense

A recent project had me working with C# again, and I noticed something I hadn't before -- C#'s Intellisense shows possible exceptions that can be thrown when calling a method
Since I work mostly with VB.NET applications, it'd be really nice to have this feature in those applications as well, but it's unfortunately absent from VB's Intellisense
Is there any quick and easy way I can customize Visual Studio's Intellisense to show exceptions (as well as other members from the XML comments)? Or am I looking at a full modification using the SDK?
Update: 29-Sep-2008 1:49 PM -- I figure this will be more complicated than simply changing a configuration setting. Since the comments are XML-based, I was hoping for an XSLT file somewhere buried in the Visual Studio directory, but nothing has turned up so far. Looks like I'm going to have to dig into the Visual Studio SDK.
Try going to Tool -> Options...
Then Text Editor -> Basic
and make sure both options "Auto list members" and "hide advanced members" are unchecked.
Also check "Parameter information".
I cannot validate this information because my current Visual Studio installation is C# standalone.

Luís
