I would like Visual Studio to autocomplete the current entry in the intellisense menu only when I hit tab.
Autocompletion being triggered, for example, when I press a period, is forcing me to hit escape every time I'm writing something that cannot yet be autocompleted, to avoid that what I'm typing gets replaced with a random entry.
Is there an option to configure this?
I'm using Visual Studio 2015, and programming in C#.
Example: here I'm typing Log, which is a class for which I haven't yet added the appropriate using statement. None of the suggestions is the good one. If I hit . now, the autocomplete feature will write EventLogProcessor, which is not what I want.
Please note that this question has nothing to do with VIM, this is not a duplicate of the question linked at the top.
Use Toggle Between suggestion and Standard completion mode option of visual studio .. It will now only suggest .. and if you press Tab it will complete your choice ..
Edit -> IntelliSense -> Toggle
For Visual Studio 2012, from the Menu Bar,
Select Tools -> Options
In the left pane, expand Text Editor -> C#
Select InteliSense
The characters that commit are listed in a text box
I am working with Visual Studio Ultimate 2013.
I would like to add controls to a dialog-box via the Dialog Editor Tab.
It usually appears in my IDE on the left side of the Resource View pane, as a small tag labeled Toolbox which I can expand by clicking on.
However, under some circumstances it simply disappears (thank you, Microsoft, for this lovely feature).
I'm not sure about the exact scenario, but it happened after I added a new dialog-box.
Can you please help me recover this?
I tried TOOLS --> Customize and TOOLS --> Options, but was unable to trace it.
Thank you.
try view -> toolbox, or Ctrl + W,X
the previous answers to this question are about going fullscreen or the navigation bar, but I want all toolbars removed without fullscreen. Isn't there a simple way to do this? (Visual Studio Express 2015)
Ok so I found the (embarrassingly simple) answer:
View -> Toolbars
Deselect all toolbars.
To also hide the navigation bar go to Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> All languages
In my visual studio the dropdown menu of events does not appear, I add an image to show what should go:
How I can enable this menu, appears to me again?
Thanks.
You can show it again by going to the Tools menu -> Option then in Text Editor -> (You language) -> General check the "Navigation Bar" checkbox:
After upgrading to Visual Studio 2015, holding control while clicking on a symbol navigates to that symbol definition. In prior versions, this would instead select the entire word.
How can I disable the navigation event when CTRL + Click(ing) a symbol, so that it highlights the word?
I do have Resharper (Ultimate 9.2) installed. The configuration option under Environment -> Search & Navigation -> Go to Declaration on Control + Click in the editor is not checked.
All the search engine results make mention of this being a feature of the Productivity Power Tools extensions in previous versions of Visual Studio. I do not have that extension installed.
I found my solution in the "Options - Text Editor - General" settings. This was on VS 2017 thou.
To disable navigation to symbol definitions in VS2015,
this one worked for me.
With Resharper Ultimate 2016.3.1, I could fix the issue by disabling "Rich mouse navigation in the editor". It can be found in Resharper Options window, under Environment > Search & Navigation.
Maybe updating Resharper could solve the issue.
Also, Productivity Power Tools is not installed on my machine.
In vs 2017 this setting is available in Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> General -> Enable mouse click to perform Go to Definition.
You can uncheck it!
Go to ReSharper Options > Environment > Search & Navigation, then uncheck the following options:
Rich mouse navigation in the editor
Enable 'Smart go to declaration'
I finally solved it following the info I found on this page..

Ensure you are using Visual Studio as your resharper keyboard scheme.
Environment -> Keyboard & Menus
Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard
To stop the go to declaration, select it and input a new key short cut for it. In this image I have demonstrated that I changed this short cut to ctr num 1 and could not change it to ctr num 3. On testing crt click does not no take me to the declaration.
Find the shortcut you want to remove, in this case Edit.NavigateTo and remove.
An update for Productivity Power Tools + VS2017. Instead of having settings for this feature, a separate plugin gets installed. So after installing PPTs, you'll have a new extension called Ctrl+Click Go To Definition. Not sure why we need that tool considering it's baked into VS, but...
Anyway, Disabling that extension (plus the other things mentioned in other comments for VS and Resharper) fixed my ctrl+click woes.
To switch to the Visual C# keyboard mapping scheme
On the Tools menu, click Options.
Expand Environment, and then click Keyboard.
Select Visual C# 2005 from the Apply the following application
keyboard mapping scheme drop-down list.
or you can do
Keyboard: CTRL + W
also plugin can be used
Keyboard Shortcut Exporter
you can import/export keymapping file
