I wonder, if there is a way to make VS C++ Express console window appear as tab, like 'Output' or 'Code Definition Window', rather than new window (the same way like Eclipse does). Any IDE settings or plugin?
Thanks in advance,
Regards, Pawel (PL)
You'd need to create a visual studio plugin to do this, and from the accepted answer to this question you can see that the top listed item that's missing is:
No Add-in/macros
so while you might be able to create one, you won't be able to run it from the Express edition.

I am looking for a few things to improve my productivity, Android Studio has these features and it really sped up my work, if you know any of these please share.
Ctrl+Shift+Space equivalent in VS Code Flutter. What it did in Android Studio was auto complete a statement. For example if I typed in if and then hit Ctrl+Shift+Space, the if condition code block would be completed for me automatically with () and {} after it, with putting the cursor within the condition.
Code snippets for things like for loops. On Android Studio you could type in iter and then Tab, it would create for (var _ in ) {} and automatically jump to both variables to fill their names on two Enter keystrokes.
These were great for me, please share if these exist in VS Code, as I understand it is supposed to be superior.
You should install dart extension for VSCode.
In order to prioritize the extension snippets and have these ones for the first suggestion, go to File/Settings/Text Editor/Suggestions and set Snippet Suggestions to top. Now it looks like
I'am a newby in android studio and learning a lot, but now have a problem where i cannot seem to find the answer to.
In android studio you can visualy drag&drop your screen.
I have seen it can do al lot (although you sometimes need the xml) but for me it is not working at all.
I mean i cannot drag&drop any widgets on the screen at all.
Tried changing the theme: no help (really tried a lot of them)
Tried a complete new project: same story
Tried other APK verion: same story
Tried Invalidatd caches / restart: no help
Even with a new project (EmptyActivity) it add's a android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView and then gives error's on that
(Failed to find style 'coordinatorLayoutStyle' in current theme).
It also gives an error on layout_height/layout_with not being there. But they are there for each widget.
Please do not missunderstand: when i execute the project i runs just fine (both on phone and emulator) but the visual builder for the screen.....:-(
Does somebody knows how to solve this.
If more info is needed please ask.
Any help is more than welcome.
There are several things that could be causing this:
Your caches could be messed up. Try going to
File > Invalidate Caches / Restart ... (I know that you already tried this, but posting for future views.)
Also, make sure that you don't have Drag-n-Drop with ALT pressed only checked in your Settings (Appearance & Behavior - Appearance).
Finally, in a default project created in Android Studio, there are two XML files created for each layout. For example, content_main.xml is embedded within activity_main.xml. Make sure that you are using content_main.xml for your design work.
In the end i fixed it by changing the SDK version in de gradle file.
still do not understand why it was wrong as studio genereded it that way but now it works so.... for me: case closed.
people. I have a question. Sometimes accidentally a window appears above some method with it's implementation. So I want to understand is there a shortcut for showing implementation of a method above the method(in new small window - like this when studio shows documentation) ? In my opinion it will be convenient to know it, because in that way it is not necessary to go to implementation and to go up and down in the code. Unfortunately I couldn't find it when I try to google it.
Thanks in advance.
here you go the cheatsheet

I recently installed Visual Studio on a laptop and the syntax highlight fails to change Classes colors.
I tried exporting and importing the full, complete set of settings and it is still looking like that.
EDIT
I tried those websites with schemes and decided to try one, the Humane scheme, and this is how the sample code looks in my laptop after installing those settings:
However, this is how it is supposed to look:
Note the lack of highlight in class names.
What could it be causing this?
I'm starting to think that's another setting at another place which causes this.
Finally, it worked by resetting user data, running this from the Visual Studio Command Prompt
devenv /Resetuserdata
Found the hint here:

Changin syntax highlight could be done through the menu Tools - Options - Environment - Font & Colors. It's a try and test approach that is not much improved from earlier versions of Visual Studio.
Fortunately, today there are entire sites with themes that simply need to be choosen and installed
I suggest you to visit http://studiostyl.es/ where you can find thousands themes or, for more generic go to http://www.hanselman.com/blog/VisualStudioProgrammerThemesGallery.aspx

I would like to know how to bring up this interface within resharper 5.0?
That is CTRL + TAB. Its a visual studio shortcut for the IDE Navigator. It is just showing open files and a preview of the content in them.
You can even modify some of the aspects of this window. Check this.
