Sticky Scroll is a genuinely nice feature, and he "prefer inner scope" is a cherry on top! 👍

[mrx.]

Thanks Tim and the lovely MS Lady (Dalia). Keep up the good work.

Sticky Scroll looks amazing for quickly navigating long dirty code files!

Nice video, suggestion I would love to see built into Visual Studio, a Razor editor with preview.

[jabescript]

I just wish there's a way to format .cshtml files

[borexola]

hello Tim Thank you for the tips I personally use two awesome features which is in Visual studio for some years
number 1 Go to Tools, Options, Text Editor, C#, General, Statement Completion section, check the Auto list members And Parameter Information
number 2 Text Editor, C#, Advanced, Inline Hint section, check the Display inline parameter name hints And Display inline type hints
you will get a really rich client IDE and be informed about parameter names and types showing of by the parameters you are passing to a method, class, if call also when instantiating a class of the object

When can we get parenthesis automatically included when we hit enter on an intellisense suggested method? Its been in resharper for years and years. And theres an open issue on github for years.

Next for File Comparison: Compare with Clipboard and Compare with URL (of Azure DevOps or GitHub). Pretty please?

@15:00 ALT+/ doesn't open github copilot. I already have it linked to my VS community version and subscription is also ACTIVE.

Another suggestion: working with HTML/Razor/Blazor on Ultrawide Monitors can we get the preview split to be both horizontal and vertical?

Many of these features seem like they have been part of JetBrains Rider/Resharper for years.

The "just whining" comment is annoying considering the history of responses from Microsoft on reports.

Although there have definitely been good outcomes to submitting feedback for bugs, by and large that is where suggestions go to die and where bugs get a pardon. I cannot recall how many times in the past an actual, confirmed bug has been passed over just so it can be closed. Closing the report seems to be the priority rather than actually resolving it.

It's because of those responses that I sparingly provide feedback. I've talked to plenty of other developers that feel the same.

Rider is taking over 😢,

My whole team usss Rider except me .

[williamsbotchway]

Is these features coming to visual studio for mac too?

[OeHomestead]

Here's hoping for a local history for files function. Kinda like they have in IntelliJ.

At 03:07, why Continue in Background button is cropped? I know he’s zoned in for the recording, but It’s the little things.
