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.

I need to build Class Library (.dll) as a part of my custom IIS (SharePoint 2010) web service for .NET Framework 3.5, but VS2019 (Community edition) using VB.NET refuses me to build it with the subjected error.
I found suggestions to disable "Pretty listing (reformatting) of code" in Options > Text Editor > Basic Advanced (in settings of Visual Studio), but I found this functionality useful otherwise so I would prefer any different solution.
Another suggestion was about deleting some "LangVersion" (or similar) tag from .vbproj file, but I don't have there any ;-(
p.s. I had troubles with these in VS2015 and VS2017 as well...
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance. #JK
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.
You could check the link below.

I'm facing performance issues when editing xaml files (views, styles, app.xaml, ...) in Visual Studio 2015.
If a xaml file is open I got a really nasty delay when typing or scrolling, even in other files. Also my CPU goes up and IntelliSense is not loaded. When I close all xaml files then everything just go back to normal performance, also in other files like .cs or .resw.
After a while I got an error that say "An exception has been encounterd. This may be caused by an extenstion". And yes, I've looked in the ActivityLog.xml file, but I couldn't figure it out. There where 2 errors, 1 with a source of "ClientRights (Client rights determined)" and 1 with "Editor or Editor Extension (System.NullReferenceException)"
I'm running Windows Version 1607 (OS Build 14393.222) and Visual Studio 2015 Update 3.
I have the feeling that it all started when I installed update 3, not quite sure if that has something to do with it, it's been a while when I've been in a xaml project (in this case UWP).
It must be something to do with the XAML designer, although I disabled it.
These are the steps I've already tried:
Disable extenstions (some couldn't be disabled)
Uninstalled Resharper
New install of vs2015 Update 3
Found on stackoverflow (Visual Studio 2015 is extremely slow):
Disable XMAL designer (Options > XAML Designer - uncheck "Enable XAML Designer")
Disable solution analysis (Options > C# > Advanced - uncheck "Enable full solution analysis")
Disable CodeLens (Options > Text Editor > All languages - uncheck "Enable CodeLens")
Clear asp.net caches
Anyone facing the same problem? Any help would be very appreciated
New install of vs2015 didn't help.
Fresh install of win10 + vs2015 did the job :-(
Lost many hours but back running!
All I am doing is creating a new blank app: New Project - Windows - Universal - Blank App. Then open MainPage.xaml, and all I see is raw XAML, no Design tab. View Designer (shft-F7) does not help.
This is on Win 10, developer mode on.
It does not seem likely that something is wrong with the VS installation, because I when I open MSDN UWP samples, XAML files in those samples open just fine. I tried reinstalling VC++ 2015 redistributable, as suggested in one of the posts here, did not help.
XAML designer is enabled (Tools - Options - XAML Designer).
The problem turned out to be the fact that my project target version (right click on Project - Properties - Application) was Windows 10 Insider Preview (Build 10563). Changing it to Windows 10 (Build 10240) fixes the issue.
Recently I installed Xamarin studio verison 5.8.2(build 7) on VS 2013 for developing Cross-Platform Mobile App. I have autocomplete or Intellisense issue in XAML. I tried reinstalling, repairing, and other suggestions found on google but Intellisense in XAML didn't work.
After spending few hours in reinstalling, repairing, and following other suggestions.
Finally I found Solution to this problem from this link
Xamarin.Forms.Intellisense
Now XAML intellisense in Xamarin.Forms started working as expected.
