I got some funny but annoying problem. Somehow I toggled this kind of view in my VB 2010. Tried in two hours to find solution but in vain.
How can I get back ordinary look?
Now it looks like this
Thanks in advance.
CTRL R then CTRL W - toggle white space

I have a minor problem that bothers me and I could not find any help anywhere.
As you might know, the used shortcuts for moving whole lines quickly is alt + up/down arrows. Weird thing is that I can only move the line upwards. Alt + down arrow does not work. Does anybody know any possible solution to fix this?
Edit: I forgot to mention that this should work in visual studio or vs code, not in E.g. word or Notepad
my coworker and i wonder if there is a way to teach visual studio to do something like emacs is able to: place the cursor anywhere in a series of whitespace in code, press ALT-SPACE shortcut (or the defined one) and boom only one space character left.
does anyone know if a simple solution exists to do this? maybee even without installing extensions or other stuff?
i already tried shortcuts like STRG-DEL but it depends on the cursor position what is deleted and that is not exactly what we are searching for.
thanks in advance, cheers! jens
ps: caps lock is reverse broken, sorry...
You could try this :
Ctrl + H
Find what:
[\u0020]+\r?\n
Replace with:
\r\n
\s instead of [\u0020] delete empty line feeds, probably because it matches line feeds
i just found out... VS HAS a feature to do this... unfortunately, in 2012 it is not working, in 2015 is is... weirdo... default is
STRG + E, ^
you also find it in EDIT >> ADVANCED menu.
best regards,

**Ctrl+E, Ctrl+** is what works on my keyboard, not sure what 'strg' is, maybe a different term for 'control"?? You can also achieve this with **Ctrl+K, Ctrl+** (a keyboard "chord"), as long as you have your cursor within the spaces you want to reduce.
In some cases in Visual Studio 2015, these spaces will be eliminated when you press the chord for file reformatting in general: Ctrl+K, Ctrl+D. However, it seems to depend on factors I'm not certain of... something I'll be posting about in StackOverflow later.
I recently started using Xcode for developing. It's pretty neat. By accident I happened to see one of its features. The feature only highlights the block of code I am currently working on. Other codes are covered with light grey. I do not know how to get that effect again. Can anybody help? Thanks!
You probably hovered your mouse over the line number bar like this:
You may be referring to the "focus ribbon" on the left side between the code and line numbers.
Refer to: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/ToolsLanguages/Conceptual/Xcode4UserGuide/Editing/Editing.html
(Figure 3-10)
This is called Code Folding Focus.
If you want to turn it ON or OFF as you please, do as follows in Xcode/Preferences:
Then, assign the key of your fits.
It'll be nice if I could view the meaning of a squiggly line without doing a mouse hover.
Ctrl + K, Ctrl + I - Edit.QuickInfo command.
It's Ctrl-. or Shift-Alt-F10 (View.ShowSmartTag).
I'm surprised that the question hasn't been answered for more than half a year. I've been using C# for a day and already have found it annoying to reach for the mouse every time to add a 'using' statement.
Not exactly the answer, but a helpful shortcut I usually use to go through errors without using the mouse is F8, which cycles through the Error list (errors, warnings, messages)
The problem is exactly as asked in the question title.
When I'm typing in the text editor and referencing a public method that has a long signature (lots of parameters, usually 10 or more) the intellisense just stops working. It will sometimes flicker; other times it will not show at all.
Only seen this happen with C#, but I don't use anything else. It might happen in VB too. Don't know.
Anyone else seeing this?
I've Googled for an hour but can't seem to iron it out. I've restarted VS, rebooted the machine, enabled/disabled intellisense in Tools -> Options. NOTHING works.
You can hit CTRL Shift Spacebar to bring it back up.
Even better, Ctrl Shift Alt + C copies it to the clipboard.
Then Ctrl Shift Alt + P pastes it. Handy for templates.
I've discovered one cause for the problem.
If the method is at the top of the screen, it pops downwards.
If the method is at the bottom of the screen is pops upwards.
However in the middle of the screen if it's too big to go either way it gets confused - flickers or just won't open.
Unfortunately, no matter what I do I can't seem to get it to display more than 37 parameters...
Found a partial solution - change the font size
Was supposedly scheduled to be fixed in SP1...
