Margins in Visual Basic Editor Excel 2016 - macos

My visual basic editor only allows me to type in one column. In other words, only one letter per line. Please see the image below. How do I fix this? (visual basic for mac)

This is a bug in Excel. To fix this, you simply need to update Excel. Click "Help" > "Check for Updates", then close Excel. Next, click the "Check for Updates" button in the Microsoft AutoUpdate window, and select for Excel to update. After updating, when you reopen Excel the problem will be fixed.

Never mind, found the answer here :

MS has no plans to push the VB editor forward on the Mac...Wonder if they put that on the glossy brochure for office 2016?

Using Visual Studio Comm 2019 to create BI Cube. Wizard welcome screens won't go away, so can't enter information

Using Visual Studio Community Edition 2019 to create BI Cube. Just installed that latest Microsoft.DataTools.AnalysisServices add on. The Wizards for both adding a Data Source and for adding a Data Source View both start with a welcome screen that occludes the input fields and they won't go away, so I can't enter information. They both have a check box that says "don't show again", but that does not help, they continue to show, even after I click thru taking all the defaults, save the project, and restart it.
See image.
MS actaully got back to me quickly, on a Sunday! thank you Patrick.
 
"One thing we’ve noticed is that for VS 2019, sometimes you can get a better experience by following this trick:
“Navigate to Tools in the Menu bar, then click ‘Options’. Next, under the Environment tab click ‘General’ and uncheck the option 'Optimize rendering for screens with different pixel densities'.”
 
That disables a newer PMA (Per-Monitor-Awareness) feature of Visual Studio that our extension hasn’t yet been updated to take account of.

wanna have a designer for a REPX file - VS13/DevExpress

I want to open a repx file with a designer.
(but now, I only see the code behind)
I have installed Visual Studio 2013 and DevExpress.
I just want to add 3 paramters to a printer lable.
The existing file was made with XtraReport - maybe that helps.
Thx.
First, open or create a blank XtraReport file in design mode in Visual Studio. Then, click on the Tasks tag on the upper-left corner of the report design surface. From the pop-up menu, click on "Open/Import" and select a .repx file.

Add option for BarButtonItem not appearing in Visual Studio form Designer

Sometimes when I open my Visual Studio form designer, I see the [Add] text to create a new BarButtonItem, other times I don't. This has led me to search for a way to create a new button several times now. Any idea what might be causing this?
Try to right click your bar manager, and check the Show DesignTime Enhancements.

visual studio 2010 toolbox standard controls missing

I have created an asp.net project in visual studio 2010 ultimate edition.
I can't see Standard, Data etc toolbox tabs, I can only see Telerik and HTML controls.
I tried to reset the toolbox, tried to delete C:\Users\mypcuser\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\*.tbd.
I also tried devenv /ResetSkipPkgs but nothing worked for me.
Please suggest a Solution thanks!
This may help you.
In the Toolbox, select the tab where you want to add the control.
Right-click the Toolbox and select Choose Items from the shortcut menu.
The Choose Toolbox Items dialog box opens. The following illustration shows the Choose Toolbox Items dialog box.
Try to right click on the Toolbox and select "Reset Toolbox"
The common controls should appear in the Dialog Editor list along with all the MFC ones that I seem to be limited to when the problem happens.
I have this happen frequently. I don't know what causes it, but this fix always works and is fine for me since I didn't customize anything.
This will help you...
In Visual studio, go to view-toolbar-check standard and layout..
Then restart the visual studio and be sure on design page and check for toolbox..
Now the standard toolbox items will appear.. Thanks.
Just for the Future Viewer of this page
VS 2010 standard ToolBox cannot be viewed.
Mostly this is happen on a first run.
It solved the problem with Ctrl + Alt + X in your keyboard.

How do I get triple click to work in Visual Studio's Text Editor

Go into Notepad, Internet Explorer or most other applications that display or edit text. Triple click on some text. Windows will select the entire paragraph under the cursor.
This doesn't work in Visual Studio 2005.
How do I get triple click support in the Visual Studio text editor?
do VS 2008 or VS 2010 solve this?
Is there a macro, setting or plugin that will solve this?
I wrote an extension for this for Visual Studio 2010 that you can download from the VS Gallery or directly from the extension manager in Visual Studio, by searching for "triple click" or my name.
You can also read the blog post I wrote about it and check out the source, on github.
I haven't used it, but CodeProject has an article on SmartHelp 3.04 which mentions that you can triple click to select a whole line.
Also, from Craig Shoemaker's blog.
About VS 2010.
Further enhancements include the
ability to triple-click an expansive
element like a table and the editor
selects the entire table’s markup.
Want to surround that table with some
additional markup? Just start typing
with the table selected and your
markup is inserted around the selected
code.
