I couldnt find any- "comment" / "uncomment" icons/images in the VS2010ImageLibrary, can anyone help me? - visual-studio

I am searching for icons/images for my application.. especially for the menu and toolbar..
i am looking for the following icons/images (16x16 if possible):
1. comment
2. uncomment
this icons can be found in the IDE of Visual Studio (comment/uncomment lines)
I am asking this because for some reason I couldn't find any of this icons in the "VS2010ImageLibrary" which ships with Visual Studio 2010
Thanks in advance,
Din

Those icons are probably copy right protected, a much better option would be to use a Royalty-Free image site like www.istockphoto.com
That way you can't get sued.

In the time you spent looking for those icons, you could have easily rolled your own! Those two icons are mostly a bunch of straight lines.
You could make your own icons that also make even more sense that Microsoft's. For example:

Try http://www.freeiconsweb.com/ as well.

Is it possible to configure toolbar/panels width and height in visual studio 2019?

The vertical column that contains the code line number is VS2019 is too wide. Is there a way to narrow it down? Also toolbars is too height. In each new version there is less and less coding space. Maybe somebody knows the way to rid/decrease using space of some panels?
I prefer just remove that panels, but don't know how ):
Too much free space here
Please check if customizing your IDE and features within from a few ways mentioned in the following docs help you out in utilizing the IDE space better, if not in the exact same way as asked:

Visual Studio | Window layer grid

I just signed up on this site because I think here are the most qualified people for answering my questions. Maybe someday I can answer some too :)
<p>Hello, Stackoverflow!</p>
Here is my question:
There are many beautiful IDE's like Atom or Sublimetext where you can adjust your window layer just like you want. Now, i find trouble in Visual Studio doing this.
Here is a preview how it should look like (Atom)
This is my favourite layout and i want this to be in VS
So, is it possible? Maybe with an extension or even a built in function?

Visual studio XAML IDE Vertical tag visualisation

Im just wondering what you use to get the vertical visualisation lines between XAML open and close tags, it makes the XMALso much easier to read.
I cant find a better place to ask this but im sure there might be, sorry if its broken the rules.
Do you mean the Visual Studio extension called "Indent Guides": https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/e792686d-542b-474a-8c55-630980e72c30 ?
It puts little guides in your VS2013 (and perhaps 2012) that show indents in the XAML editor. If you didn't mean that, I'd still recommend a look as it makes things a lot easier to read!

VSCommands Solution Badges parameters

does anyone know what are the various parameters for VSCommands's Solution Badges feature? On the official site http://vscommands.squaredinfinity.com/Features-SolutionBadges they tell you everything BUT the most important thing and that is the list of available parameters (ie. {solutionFileName}, {sln:activeConfig}, {branchDirectoryName} and so on). Can't seem to be able to google them either. Am I missing something obvious here?
So it seems that pretty much all available parameters are already displayed with the default configuration (had to decompile and deobfuscate the extension to find out this information). What I was after was full solution path in the window's title bar. I solved the problem with this handy extension
Visual Studio Window Title Changer.

Can anyone explain why my workflow designer is so messed up?

I'm trying to learn TFSBuild 2010 and workflows and I found using the designer was very confusing. Then I realized from seeing screenshots of other peoples workflows, my designer is clearly messed up. Take a look at this:

Something is very strange here. As I click on each task the borders for that task show up but this can get extremely confusing when there is a lot going on.
Yes, your designer is messed up. Why? Dunno.
First thing I'd do is update your graphics card. WPF is sensitive to bad video drivers.
Second is to go to Tools-Options and check out the Workflow options. You can change the "theme" of the workflow there. Change the theme, restart it and see if that makes a difference. If it works, you can try going back to the other theme.
Lastly, I'd definitely open a Connect on this. Check for the link under the Help menu.
Could it be that the XAML file for your workflow has invalid markup and is corrupted? Does it look the same when you create a new/empty workflow?
I'd say that if its happening for all workflows, including new ones, then you probably should try posting on a Microsoft help forum like this one.
Can you show your XAML file? Seems that it has more to do with the rendering of the Rehoster.
