I have an netstandard2.1 Project in my Solution that always starts even when I start debugging another project. I can enable this in Properties in the Solution explorer.
Now I added a .NET 6.0 project to the solution and I want the same behaviour. But I don't know where to enable this feature.
How can I activate the feature?
If I understand correctly you are looking for VS feature multiple startup projects.
To select multiple projects as startup you can right-click on the solution item in the solution explorer, select "Properties" and then under "Common Properties" -> "Startup Project" click on "Multiple startup projects" and select needed ones:
I want ti change the Security Settings in visual studio 2010 .
but in my project-> properties -> security tab missing.
I answered this here:
Why am i not seeing the security tab in my Office Solution properties?
and here is my answer re-posted:
I had the same issue and the solution was super annoying to figure
out. Someone on another website mentioned that the Security tab is
only relevant for certain types of ClickOnce applications so I started
playing around with various options and figured it out.
In the Application tab, for Application Type, select Windows Forms Application from the drop-down menu (other drop-down options might also work but haven't tried them)
Save everything: In the main menu bar of Visual Studio, click File > Save All.
Close your project Properties window (i.e. the one with the Application tab that we were just modifying)
Open your project Properties window again: in your Solution Explorer, select your project, go to the main menu bar, click
Project, click Properties.
Voila! It should be there. :)
I need to work with the Property Sheet of a project. I followed instruction on msdn to try to find Property Manager under View, but I do not see Property Manager as a menu option under Tool. I only saw Property Pages and Properties Window. I tried both options but they do not seem to be where I can create a property sheet. My Visual Studio version is as follows: Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, Version 10.0.40219.1 SP1Rel Microsoft .NET Framework Version 4.0.30319 SP1Rel. Can anyone please give a pointer? Thanks.
I finally found mine under View->Other Windows, near the bottom.
Try resetting your View menu, Property Manager should indeed be there.
Go to Tools -> Customize.
In the popup window, select the Commands tab.
Select the Menu bar: button, and in the dropdown menu select View
Click Reset All and confirm.
This should restore Property Manager to your View menu.
To see the Property Manager you need to have Expert Settings enabled. You can find this option in:
Tools -> Settings
It is under View --> Other Windows --> Properties Manager. It works.
This is how I restored the Property Manager menu item in Visual Studio 2013:
Select Tools\Customize
Select the Commands Tab and Menu Bar
Under the dropdown beside Menu Bar, select "View | Other Windows" (or wherever you'd like to put it)
Click "Add Command..." and select the View category
Find and select Property Manager from Commands and click OK
In my case it was just in the VIEW toolbar - almost in the bottom. Running VS2013 Pro update 3
View > Property Manager or View > Other Windows > Property Manager, please try this
None of the above answers worked for me. What worked for me is:
Tools -> Import and Export Settings -> Reset all settings -> ... -> Visual C++ Development Settings
Despite I selected Visual C# settings at first use, for some reason, VC++ settings were ON, causing the visual components property window to not show up while pressing F4.
Selecting Visual C# settings ( in Tools | Import and export settings... | Reset All ) made it work.
Property Manager is a moot utility now. Since the property sheet is defined for each project, it can be edited by right clicking on the project and selecting properties. If you need to edit multiple projects once, just select all the projects you want to effect a change and do the right clicking trick.
This brings up the same property pages as it would from Property Manager.
Since none of the given answers worked for me here are my two cents.
Like any well hidden menu in Visual Studio this one can be found by opening Tools -> Options... -> Environment -> Keyboard and searching for "View.PropertyManager". There you can give it a global shortcut. While this only helps if you know the name of the menu or command you are looking for it's much faster go through a bunch of guesses this way than by randomly browsing menus.
I have a solution which contains multiple applications. In the 'root' application I read a config file, download the xap files and load them using some class System.ComponentModel.Composition.Hosting.DeploymentCatalog .
The problem is that I can't debug these dynamically loaded applications (the web project, I can debug the Silverlight client). Visual Studio says the breakpoint will not be hit, displaying the exclamation mark inside the yellow triangle. If I copy the dll+pdb files to root application's output folder than the breakopints become colored in full red but they still aren't being hit.
Any solutions? Thanks!
Answering my own question:
I was able to debug my web project in Visual Studio 2010 by following the steps:
Web project -> Properties -> Web section -> Select Don't open a page. Wait for a ....
Start 'root' application in normal mode.
Right-click on web project -> Debug -> Start new instance.
That was it!
Go to Properties inside the Website project, click on Web tab at the left side, you will find Debuggers section at the bottom. Try checking ASP.NET radio button and uncheck Silverlight radio button and see whether you are able to debug the Web project or not.
If still this doesn't help, try unchecking Disable script debugging option in IE > Tools > Internet Options > Advanced
Microsoft Test Manager 2010 does not support Silverlight applications, so when I navigate from a test to my Silverlight 4 app running in IE, I get a popup notifying me that there is a compatibility issue. This is really annoying. Doing some Googling, I found out that the solution is to disable the Action Log Data Collector. I cannot locate this setting in Test Manager 2010. Does anyone know where it is ?
Thanks,
Scott
In Testing Center click on Plan (it shows the current test plan). Click on Properties. In "Run Settings" / "Manual runs" section choose 'Local Test Run' for "Test Settings". Then click Open link next to this drop down. In the opened window select Data and Diagnostics and uncheck all items under Role Local.
