Visual Studio 2022 Toolbar Icon Size

I would like to create a customized toolbar with larger icons in Visual Studio 2022 IDE, not Visual Studio Code. Currently using Community edition but would like to do the same for Professional or Enterprise editions.
It seems like you can only add toolbars and commands and change the order of command buttons but there is no way to increase the toolbar button sizes?
I tried the same for Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 18, but it seems to share the same UI for toolbar customization with the same limiting options as VS2022.

How do you add a device to the XAML designer preview in Visual Studio 2019?

How do you add a device at the XAML designer (Android) in Visual Studio 2019? So not the emulator but only the at the design screen?
I found this on the internet but that doesn't work at Visual Studio.
Just do this to get different devices layout for designing xaml,
The link you provided, i follow the steps, it works well for UWP.
As i know, Xamarin.Forms doesn't currently support visual designers for XAML files.

Failed to create component 'ReportViewer'

Anyone can help me with below error? It looks like it has something to do with different versions but I am not able to solve it. I followed different instructions like: Installing the NuGet package for the WinForms than adding the dll via .NET Framework components.
When I drag and drop the ReportViewer onto a Form it gives me the below error.
This is what I did and it worked well for me:
1- Installed Microsoft Rdlc Report Designer for Visual Studio
2- Opened Visual Studio and created a new project using Visual Basic > Report Application template. (You can also search for it using top right search box)
3- From the warning dialog clicked Trust
4- Cancelled Report Wizard (I just didn't want to create report initially, you can create.)
5- Rebuild the solution.
You are all set. You can add a new Report and design it in VS and show it in ReportViewer. If you open Form1 you can see a ReportViewer there.
To add it to toolbox, you can click on Choose Items and then Browse your solution directory and from the NuGet package folders go to report viewer package folder and select Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms.dll.

This is after just starting a new project with however it is initially setup. I'm running Windows 10. Any ideas?
If you want the Windows 95/98 "old look" you can disable the use of Visual Styles in your application:
Right-click your project in the Solution Explorer and press Properties.
Go to the Application tab and untick Enable XP visual styles.

Xamarin XAML Intellisense not working VS 2015

I have tried to get intellisense working but no success.
Visual studio community edition 2015 update 2
Xamarin 4.0.4.4
Xamarin.Forms 2.2.0.45
Enable XAML Language for Xamarin.Forms 1.1
No Resharper installed
I have tried suggestions on previous threads. No success.
Any suggestions? Many thanks
Try build project containing xaml file. The InteliSense should then work.
For writing Xaml you can also install any Extension: In menu Tools/Extensions and updates... click on-line node and type xaml xamarin to the Search input.
