Add the possibility to create the code without so much mouse clicking (why do I have to hover over the error to see what it is about?). I need a shortcut that allows me to solve the problem. Ctrl + . only seems to work from time to time. Why is intellisense not no intelli after all? if I am trying to assign something to a string reference - why aren't the methods that are returning the string on the top of the list.

Hi all,

The new "Quickfind" - panel of VS2012 is annoying. It does not respond as expected and could not be positioned as needed.
It slows down all work.

So I would suggest to go generally back to the old "find dialog" or allow the users to disable the new "quickfind" toolwindow.

Best regards,
dp.

Support usage of CSX scripts for pre/post build events, as well as build scripts. Now that Roslyn supports the creation of these C# scripts, they should be used everywhere they can be to replace the myriad of languages used for different things in the development process.

Add additional data types that implement quad precision IEEE 754-2008 numbers

The Group object from the Regex library needs a Name property. I am in a situation where I have regexes that are not known at compile time being run, and I need to create a Name-Value pair from the resulting matches. This is very difficult without a Name property.

I get an alert when the build breaks, but I never really know when it is fixed. (Unless I go check it manually)

It would be really nice to get an email when the build is fixed (after a broken build).

As a tester I want to be informed/warned if I connect a build with a retention policy that deletes test data so I can take appropriate action.

As a tester I want to have the possibility to set retain indefinitely on a build from inside MTM So I can secure that my test data doesn’t get deleted

I suggest moving the Build Information back to the left, and place an warning if there is a build policy deleting Test Results. Maybe something like this

Or even better – save some vertical space and do something like this

Extend enums with a methods, primary with conversion.
Example of definition:

public enum DoorState
{
Open,
Closed,
Semi-closed;

public static implicit operator DoorState(string param)
{
return (DoorState) Enum.Parse(typeof(DoorState), param);
}
}

Examples of use:

door1.State = "Closed"; // DoorState.Closed
dish.Status = "ReadyForEating"; //DishState.Ready
usercontrol1.Visilibity = false; //Visilibity.Hidden
service.Status = "Stopped" //ServiceStatus.StopWithHandlers

In VSTS Load test results, Currently there is no such feature to see page response times for each browser type Separately. As we know, Server process the request based on user agent that we're simulating in the request (for example, different responses will be returned from gmail server for mobile and web requests).

There should be a feature to see response times for different browser types.

Bring back the "Associate test to test case" context menu item in the Test View of VS2010.

Help Viewer 2.0 is missing a category filter (e.g. C#, C++, Windows SDK, etc.). Search and index results are cluttered by useless results the user is not looking for.

Far the most of the time, each file (in c# at least) only contains a single file. Therefore I expect the expended file to show a list of members, and not a list of classes in the file.

In case the file contained several classes, the extra step with the list of classes could be shown instead.

context menu option to view designer of the current Screen while viewing Screen Code.

Add history tab in the TFS (Soultion Control Explorer) which can provide first hand view of the history of the files under the selected folder. Also the view should have the option to see the results by Changeset or simply the files. All the views currently shows the changesets and need to click on each of the changeset to see the files underneath. It will make life more easier if we can the list of files which changeset as a column and one can sort by changeset if need be

If possible, please provide an option to only open the tabs (e.g. "Error List", "Output", "Pending Changes", etc.) above the status bar when clicked instead of when hovering over. Often times, when I move the mouse to the bottom of a file or towards the task bar, the window the tab item corresponds to opens up. This is a distraction and annoyance IMHO.
