I am creating class diagram using VS2010. Is there any way to import VS2010 generated class diagrams to import in MS Visio?
Right-click on the class diagram within Visual Studio and select "Export Diagram as Image..."
Choose Enhanced Metafile Format (*.emf) which is recognized by Visio.
You can do it from visual studio
File > Print and then send it to OneNote or choose PDF.

I have a package (used to be an Addin) that extends Visual Studio to print the source code of VS projects in color. The current addin also allows the users to choose to output/or not the source in Closed Outlines.
In VS 2015, how does one determine the details (start line, end line, open/closed, etc.) of each Outline in the code window?
Use MEF to import an IOutliningManagerService, call GetOutliningManager() with your TextView, then use its methods to see the collapsible regions.
In Visual Studio 2010 I can generate class diagram from my project with 2 clicks. But now in Visual Studio 2013 I don't see the option "View Class Diagram" in project menu. Where did this item disappear? How can I generate class diagram from project now?
Right click on the project in solution explorer or class view window --> "View" --> "View Class Diagram"
For creating real UML class diagrams:
In Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate you can do this without any external tools.
In the menu, click on Architecture, New Diagram
Select UML Class Diagram
This will ask you to create a new Modeling Project if you don't have one already.
You will have a empty UMLClassDiagram.classdiagram.
Again, go to Architecture, Windows, Architecture Explorer.
A window will pop up with your namespaces, Choose Class View.
Then a list of sub-namespaces will appear, if any. Choose one, select the classes and drag them to the empty UMLClassDiagram1.classdiagram window.

For Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio 2017 Users
For People who are missing this old feature in VS2019 (or maybe VS2017) from the old versions of Visual Studio
This feature still available, but it is NOT available by default, you have to install it separately.
Open VS 2019 go to Tools -> Get Tools and Features
Select the Individual components tab and search for Class Designer
Select this Component and Install it, After finish installing this component (you may need to restart visual studio)
Right-click on the project and select Add -> Add New Item
Search for 'class' word and NOW you can see Class Diagram component

Update to create a class-diagram for the whole project
Here is how to generate a diagram for the whole project (after applying the previous steps)
Add class diagram to the project
if the option Preview Selected Items is enabled in the solution explorer, disabled it temporarily, you can re-enable it later
open the class diagram that you created in step 2 (by double-clicking on it)
drag-and-drop the project from the solution explorer to the class diagram
We have created a new Modeling Project on Visual Studio 2012 to have all of the class and sequence diagrams, however there is no option to export the diagrams to images like the diagrams created via "View class diagram" option in a Class Library.
Why? How can I export the diagrams from this project template?
I've been trying to find a way to export the diagrams and now I realized that selecting the elements of the diagram, copying and pasting to another application (like MSPaint or Word) does work.
However, the header of the diagram (with the name of the class diagram) is ignored.
Now , I am working with Visual Studio 2008. I want to Create Class Diagram. I don't want to design the class diagram. I mean I want to generate class diagram automatically by using VS 2008. Please help me.
Right click on the project, choose "View Class Diagram".
Up to now I have always adding a new non-MFC C++ class in Visual Studio (I use 2010 these days) by right clicking on "Header Files" and adding a header file for the class and then right clicking on "Source Files" and adding a source file for the class. I then fill out the contents manually. It takes under a minute but it would be SO nice if there was a wizard for this.
Is there a wizard to add a new non-MFC C++ class in VS2010?
Right click on the project in Solution Explorer. Click Add->Class, you can find C++ class in the pop-up window.
