I'm using the MVC pattern for web development. After updating to the 2022 version, I can no longer find the "go to controller" tool in the context menu in the page views (.cshtml).
Can anyone tell me where it is please?
Sure is a hassle. I've got the same. Shortcut still works though:
Ctrl-M + Ctrl-G

I'm using Visual Studio 2017 and have followed the instructions in this answer to change the behaviour of Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab to switch to next and previous tab, respectively.
Problem is, while Ctrl+Tab works fine, Ctrl+Shift+Tab only switches to the previous tab when the current document is not a Web Form or similar (e.g. master page). On those pages, the combo switches between Source, Design and Split view instead. How can I disable this behaviour?
I've looked through the keyboard shortcuts in Visual Studio settings and haven't found any others that are mapped to that combination. I've even disabled Web Forms designer (so only Source view is available), but it doesn't help, Ctrl+Shift+Tab simply doesn't do anything then.
Set the shortcut keys for the Window.PreviousTabAndAddToSelection command in the HTML Editor Source View (instead of Global) to Ctrl+Shift+Tab. This has the minor side effect of selecting the previous tab when navigating away from a web form tab, but successfully avoids the unexpected behavior of taking you to the split or design sub tabs.
how can I modify Visual Studio 2015 to be able to search the internet (my fav search engine happens to be google) from the context menu in the code editor?
Ideally, I would like it to open as a new tab in my (default) external browser, because the internal web browser is still...lacking, shall we say?
I found one extension "web search" for older VS, but I have found no extension that works with VS 2015. I found no article that still works.
For comparison, when you're in Chrome, you can select some text, right click and say Search Google for 'what you selected'.
I think this would be handy when learning new technologies from a project that uses those technologies, or just for help.
Ok this turned out to be fairly easy. I just added a tool to Tools, External Tools
Command: C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe
Arguments: https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#newwindow=1&safe=active&q=%22$(CurText)%22
I enclosed the $(CurText) variable around quotes (%22) so that it would search on the exact phrase.
Then, to make it more accessible and actually put it in the context menu (and other places), I clicked the Move Up button to make it the first command, then customized the Standard toolbar to include Tools.External Command 1. I also added it to Other Context Menus | Html Context and Editor Context Menus | Code Window
Then I also went into Tools, Options, Keyboard and associated Tools.ExternalCommand1 with Alt+G
IMPORTANT: Because Visual Studio (still, in 2015) doesn't save some modifications to the IDE until it shuts down, you need to shut down all other instances of VS and then lastly shut down the instance that you used to enact these IDE modifications for them to "stick". And, if VS 2015 is like previous versions, be prepared for the menu / toolbar modifications to simply go away one day, at which point you'll just have to redo them.
I've just installed the community edition v13. What has happened to the side bar to the right which had the maven projects. With one click it would display the maven projects. When I go to View -> Tool Windows -> Maven Projects it displays but when I hide it, it completely disappears. It didn't do this in version 12. It's annoying to keep going to the top menu bar. Any ideas on how to get it back?
In Idea 13, in left-right part are by default invisible(to not use place). Click on showed button to go to previous style.
First, I have xcode 3.4.3 installed on my hackintosh(10.6.5). When I started using xcode , I follow apple's steps from "Your First Mac App" tutorial. When I walked through creating actions for controls, it ask me to use the assistant editor to create connections between control and logic code, but I can't find anything called assistant editor is this because I am using xcode 3.4.3?
Could somebody please tell me some alternatives.
//edit: The assistant editor seems only present at xcode 4 and higher, so the tutorial you are using is newer than you current xcode version. Thanks #popeye for the hint.
The alternative is simply add the connections by yourself. You have to add the outlets in the interface-file (h-file) and the implemenations in the implementation-file (m-file).
There is a good tutorial video fromon how to achieve this:
Xcode 3 Recipes - Connecting an Outlet
Old Post:
The mentioned "assistant editor" is just a neat way to connect your outlets with your code. It connects the GUI with the code. For example if you have a button on your screen and you want to register a touch event on that than you can simply use the assistent editor to do that.
It is on the upper right corner of xcode. See the screenshot:
It shows you a split view with the code on one side and the Storyboard on the other. If you have that view open you can simply hold the control-key and drag a connection from the gui element to the code.
From the apple website: Assistant (): presents a separate editor pane with content logically related to that in the standard editor pane. Use the split controls in the Assistant pane to split the pane. Use View > Assistant Layout to set your preferred assistant pane and split configuration.

I think you might be out of luck. I do not remember having an assistant editor in XCode 3, not like the version in XCode 4 anyway. Apple tends to keep it docs relevant to the newest release. The link provided by #palme is only relevant for XCode 4.
You might have be resigned to opening multiple windows to compare header and implementation files. In XCode 3, you will have to get used to mutiple windows at times, even seperate applciations (i.e. Interface Builder is completely seperate application from XCode 3).
When working in a VB.NET project in Visual Studio (2008 specifically, but hopefully the answer applies to any version) is it possible to have intellisense/auto-complete only show the "All" tab instead of the "Common"/"All" tab? Or alternatively, have it default to the "All" tab.
Being predominately a C# developer having the editor try to be smarter than me by telling me what it thinks I should be looking for is more of an annoyance than anything.
NOTE: I do have ReSharper and DevExpress installed, so if the solution only works with one of those tools it is available.
I am afraid I don't know of a way to default to the All tab. I have grown accustomed to using keyboard shortcuts to toggle between the two, to a degree where it doesn't bother me anymore.
I know its not what you are looking for, but maybe it can help you anyway :)
