In Visual studio, please provide the facility to debug the _g.cs files generated after compiling XAML files. It will help a lot.
When we work on XAML related projects. We have to do lot of manual parsing of XAML in case there is a problem in binding for example a wrong spelling of property. If we can debug the _g.cs file generated after compiling xaml that will help a lot.

Self-Extending Integration
Hi,
I am a good programmer of VB.Net I found it Very Easy to use. But the thing i want is that programmer should be able to extend language by building new keywords. As In some class If we use IDisposable Then we can use Using statement for that class. So I want that user make new classes and make new keywords for them. Although It is easy to say this but i think its programming will be so hard but VB.Net will be language extending itself. There should be a class for implement or inheriting Keyword and build rules…3 votes -
localization
In newly announced Android Studio exist one very cool feature - ability to show all screens with different language settings. In Visual Studio 2012 we have a very helpful / useful Device View. It would be amazing to have option to choose localization language to preview in XAML Designer. This way I will be able to adjust my UI or change my localization, without running tons of emulators.

I don't know how to write this suggestions clearer than the current title. I'll try to explain the background of this suggestions
This is the current situations in VS 2012:
1. F# has included as one of first class language since VS 2010
2. F# user base has grown larger than before, thanks to #1, Microsoft! But unfortunately? (read next)

4. Can't create WPF (hence Silverlight) project visually using F# (again, other than using C# or VB)
5. Can't create visual Windows Store app using F#, just…24 votes -
Add the ability to open an work item in another tab
Hi,
I mostly use the TFS with the web interface. And I miss the possibility to open a workitem (from a filtered and sorted list) in another tab.
The background is that if I open it in the same tab and navigate back my filters are gone.
Furthermore it like to have a list of my workitems and one or more specific work items open in different tabs at the same time (without copying the url) even if the back navigation works properly.

Add "Show all files" feature to Solution
We know the issue about solution folders not being real windows folders. Not saying we change that, but, just as any project has a "Show all files" button in solution explorer, let's have a similar button active for the solution itself.
It'd still show any folders not mapping to projects or solution folder as "not included" (like in projects when you have other files you need to right click and "include" them in project).
An enhancement might be also being able to create equivalent solution folders (as in: the "include" feature), but just accessing the solution windows explorer folder from…

A new block statement conception
It's a bit long but very easy to understand.
The following block statements would have members as well as the objects:
If
Select
While
Do
For
For Each
TryFirst of all, some simple examples...
- the Exit and the Continue block-member-statements:
For i = 0 To 99
Select Case i
Case x
For.Exit
Case y
For.Continue
End Select
Next- an example to control the outer For loop:
For i = 0 To 99
For j = 0 To 99
Select Case j
Case a
Select.For.For.Exit
Case b
Select.For.For.Continue
End Select
Next
Next- same with short qualification:

When in the "Find Changesets" dialog in "Source Control Explorer", it would be nice to have an option to rollback the changeset
When in the "Find Changesets" dialog in "Source Control Explorer", it would be nice to have an option to rollback the changeset that was found/searched for. Currently, you have to view history on the solution/folder/file to select the changeset and roll it back.

C# as a Browser Scripting Language
C# can be incorporated a new Scripting language.
No need to have CLR. Just all the syntax.
This will help all the developers to use same syntax for server side and browser side scripting. To be a scripting language, one important feature is required, that is all objects should be dynamic.OOPS & branching and looping, delegates all are very much required for us to create a robust browser coding.

Large Attachments to WIT stored as shared files not in database
This idea is for corporate TFS not for cloud based:
There some probles when I want to attach huge dumpfiles to Bug in TFS. Now it is not possible becouse some of them more than 2GB.
BTW attach 2GB to WTI causes DB to grow extremly and It is a problem with backup and maintain.So I want to suggest following feature:
I can limit size of attachment which will be stored within DB (ie 4MB).
I can attach a network storage and make redirection of greater files to be stored in this network storage automatically: within TFS only link…3 votes -
Allow TFS task board to show Tasks without parent
Currently the TFS task board only shows me Tasks (Bugs, Issues or whatever I configure), that have a parent User Story.
In out workflow Bugs and Issues don't need a parent User Story, but they won't show up in the task board if they haven't.
I would like to have an option, that the task board shows me all work items in the current iteration, even if they don't have a parent User Story.

Give us a timeline for when Team Foundation Service pricing will be released!
Team Foundation Service is awesome! My org would love to have their code hosted, built, tested, and deployed in the cloud. However, It would be nice to know the pricing of this system, or at least, when such a pricing would be finalized/released so we can plan accordingly.
We have many immediate needs that can be addressed by the Team Foundation Service, but need to know if such an amazing service is even within our budget!!
