I installed VS 2010 premium recently. My problem is that there are several features they appear disabled particularly layout toolbar for example aligning, spacing etc. I think I am missing something to make them enabled. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

I have seen this question asked many times, however the answers do not seem to apply to Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit): how can I disable the pop-up boxes that appear whenever you hover over variables or functions? This functionality is enabled by default and is incredibly annoying.
Note that I am not referring to auto-completion, just the pop-ups when hovering.
In the hours I have spent researching this problem I have seen references to File/Preferences, the '%APPDATA%\Code\User\settings.json' file and many other suggestions, but none seem to apply to this version of Studio.
I am coding in C# however I believe this is a problem with the editor in all languages.
Are you talking about Tooltips? There is no standard way in the UI, but Mads Kristiansen did make an extension to do this. The bad news is he does not appear to have updated it for VS 2022. The good news is that the code is available online:
For mac;
Click to "VÄ°SUAL STUDIO" (on top left corner),
Click "Extensions",
Click to "Installed" button on top middle,
Disable z.Ned Core Debugger"
I'm trying to find the System.Windows.Forms.StatusBar control in the ToolBox for a Visual Studio 2010 Windows Forms Project in Visual Basic. I cannot seem to see it. Is it somewhere in the "Common Controls" or "Containers" sections? I cannot see it. If someone can tell me what controls are to the top and bottom of it I would appreciate it.
Thanks
It's not there by default, because it's been replaced by the newer (and much nicer) StatusStrip control.
If you really need it, you can add it to any tab by right-clicking, then clicking Choose Items:
Whenever I use CSS3 style commands (like Box-shadow, Box-Sizing, background gradient,etc ) in my Visual Studio 2010 projects and compiles it, VS shows one or more errors regarding CSS3 styles. How can I overcome this behavior of Visual Studio?
You can turn off CSS validation errors in Visual Studio from Tools menu. Select Tools > Options and perform the action shown in the following image.
Up the top there is drop down text box (next to comments in toolbar). Open that and see if you have HTML5/CSS3 in there. If not, you have to download it from MSDN.
I have a better answer for you than the currently accepted answer. It's actually just a small change to said answer and here it is. Just check the "as warnings" box. So it doesn't show up as an error (which is good because it ain't one), but it does show up in your pleasantly-ignorable warnings list still.
I installed Coderush express and I can see that it is installed. (I can see that Camel Case Navigation works). But I can see any other feature works. Based on this page: http://community.devexpress.com/blogs/markmiller/archive/2009/06/25/coderush-xpress-for-c-and-visual-basic-2008.aspx
I cannot see any of these feature to works:
Tab to Next Reference : no effect when I put caret on a variable and press tab ( a tab inserted at the middle of my variable name!)
Highlight All References: pressing ctrl+alt +u add a ascii character to source code.
Quick Navigation: Ctrl +Shift + Q has no effect.
Quick File Navigation : Ctrl +Alt +F brings up F# interactive
Selection Increase and Selection Reduce doesn't work: generate a beep
Declare: ctrl +` has no effect.
and ...
Any idea why this is happening? I am using VS2010.
Presumably due to your using a different version of Visual Studio.
The page you linked to is pretty clear about it being for Visual Studio 2008, but you've included the visual-studio-2010 tag.
CodeRush Xpress fully supports all language features of Visual Basic and C# in Visual Studio 2008.
Edit
Version of Visual Studio wasn't the problem after all.
It appears to just be that the tool makes very little visible change to the Visual Studio user interface, so it looks like it hasn't loaded.
It seems that your installation is corrupt. I would recommend you contact DevExpress Support directly. The support team is better equipped to resolve any issues you face with their products. They offer a very short response time and high qualification. I would also recommend that you reinstall the product.
The features you are asking about, were removed on purpose from VS2010 version of Coderush XPress. More info here:
Experience with Coderush XPress and Visual Studio 2010?
I've finally joined the 21st century and got a second monitor. I can merrily undock all the side windows (Solution Explorer, ToolBox etc) and plonk them anywhere I like on either monitor. I can't though figure out how to undock a code window. Is it possible? (I'm using vs2008).
Multi monitor is a key functionality of the new vs 2010 as was requested by a lot of devs.
Actually there is a way to do that.
You just need to install a FREE addon from Exact Magic named StudioTools
It has this feature called "Tear Off Editor Window".
You just activate the tab you want to tear off and from the StudioTools manu select Tear Off Editor.
I also strongly recommend you check out the rest of the features, especially the "Smart Goto" which rocks!
Just for you (VS2010) ;-p
You could resize Visual Studio to cover both monitors, then right-click the code window and click New Vertical Tab Group
The "Tear Off Editor Window" feature in Studio Tools from Exact Magic is I think the only option if can't just extend the application over your monitors, if you have multiple monitors of different sizes or a mix of portrait and landscape orientation.
However you cannot download Studio Tools from the original site as they were bought by another company who no longer support the software. You can download it from the the Wayback Machine: Studio Tools Download Link
