When I am editing an xafml file using the XAF model designer Resharper is activated by my ordinary typing
For example if I edit the tooltip property
I can disable Resharper but having to do so is annoying.
How can I turn it off just when I am in the model designer?

In Resharper for Visual Studio, often I want to use a refactoring suggestion and I'm not sure whether it is part of Resharper or VS. Sometimes I have to push Ctrl+. to open Resharper's refactorings and then hit escape and then push Alt+Enter to open VS's wrench or light bulb.
Is there a way to combine these into one menu or otherwise see both, of course without losing the VS refactorings?
ReSharper used to be able to merge VS actions into the Alt+Enter menu, but right now as of 2022.3 this functionality is broken (see RSRP-486822).
I suggest you disable "Hide Visual Studio Quick Action icons in the left editor margin" setting in R# options. This was you will be able to see VS actions using Ctrl+., and R# actions using Alt+Enter.
When designing layouts in the Designer of Android Studio 3.4 I am missing the "tools" feature.
In older versions, there was a small button that allowed to set a properts in the tools mode (only visible in designer) instead of setting it for the android name space.
So in the XML it would be written
tools:background="#aaa"
instead of
android:background="#aaa"
However, with the new version, this is gone. It only seems to show the wrench symbol when I set this manually in the XML. But the button for adding a tools-property directly seems gone.
Any idea where the button went to?
Check under declared attributes
Press the + sign on the right and you can see a new row has been added below where you can search tools: {see the image below}
Or still, you can use the old school way like the above pic.
With Visual Studio 2012, Microsoft has apparently abandoned the very useful UI convention of "having any visual distinction whatsoever between a selected and unselected window, so the user can actually tell where the hell their input will appear when they start typing". Is there any way to fix this?
After asking around my office, I discovered that this is changeable in the Theme Editor extension. Microsoft calls the title bar "Main Window -> Caption", just to ensure the setting is impossible to find.
Back when I had ReSharper 5 my files would have all kinds of syntax highlighting and a bar next to the scrollbar to the right. It was wonderful because it would highlight redundant imports and possible code smells, as well mark things in the bar next to the scroll bar.
With ReSharper 6 I don't have any of that. I have to actually have cursor on what I want to change and wait for the pencil or light bulb to show up. Is this how ReSharper 6 is by default or do I have to reinstall it?
First make sure ReSharper is acutally activated. If it is, there should be a ReSharper top level menu entry in Visual Studio at the top.
If it is, make sure "Enable Code Analysis" is turned on in the ReSharper settings.
If it is not, enable ReSharper in the Visual Studio settings (Tools->Options). There should be an extra entry "ReSharper" in the list on the left side. Click the "Resume" button.
If you don't have such an entry in your Visual Studio settings, ReSharper is either not or not correctly installed.
Maybe the settings were not taken from the version 5 folder to the version 6 one. Try the following:
Make sure you close Visual Studio.
Go to:
Note: this folder is from a Windows 7 machine, since you didn't provide information on which version of visual studio you are using I'm putting 'x'
"c:\Users*your user*\AppData\Roaming\JetBrains\ReSharper\v5.x\vsxx.x"
In there you'll find a UserSettings.xml file open it for edit.
Look for the "SeverityTable" node. Select it and copy it.
Paste it on the same file that you'll find on the "c:\Users*your user*\AppData\Roaming\JetBrains\Resharper\v6.0\vsxx.x" folder. I recommend making a backup of the file before doing that.
Reopen visual studio. Resharper should be indicating all the recommendations and smells as it did before you updated it.
Hope this helps.
I created a LiveTemplate for a common HTML construct. When I use a LiveTemplate for C#, it correctly detects when I type the beginning of the LiveTemplate name.
When I do this in the markup editor (i.e. the Source view for an ASPX file), I can't seem to get ReSharper to understand that I'm typing the name of a LiveTemplate.
How do I trigger a ReSharper LiveTemplate in the Visual Studio 2010 markup editor?
Type the entire snippet name and then press Tab (instead of Ctrl-Space)
See below a sample snippet I made and its usage.
