Hi Robert, we all love hearing you talk so don't be shy ;) The new format is great, but I didn't have a problem with the older format, I often find that you ask the questions that I am thinking at the time, so don't cut yourself out too much! One criticism is that you ought to have the off-cam monitor behind the guests head out of shot. Having the monitor above the camera (which is where you spend a lot of time looking) makes it look like you're watching the clock praying for lunchtime to arrive ;) Keep up the great work guys 👌
15 minutes is excellent strategy! Please continue in that manner. Usually I do not have to much time to spend while I'm working. This way I don't have to worry where I stopped last time.
Superb..The features demonstrated in video are really helpful in day to day coding. We would love to see more videos exploring VS capabilities in order to enhance the productivity.
I like both formats. If Robert wouldn't interrupt and ask questions, some of the lesser known features wouldn't be revealed. I also find it good that these tips & tricks aren't too advanced and therefore easy to follow.
True. I like that those questions help unearth somethings that might have not been said ordinarily. I also like it short as well. So striking the balance like was done in this episode should be the way going forward.
I actually had memorized the name "Mads Kristensen" before watching this video because in every new install of visual studio the first thing I do is download his VS extensions. "Add new file" in particular is a killer one for me! (and a feature I think should be native to visual studio)
Working timestamps: - New Search experience [1:25] - See content of Clipboard Ring [2:25] - New C# refactorings [3:45] - IntelliCode [5:00] - Search in Autos, Locals and Watch windows [6:35] - Document health indicator [8:00] - Code Cleanup for C# [9:35] - Git Stash [11:30] - Clean Solution Load [13:30]
Mads, perfect intro for VS 2019, looks super awesome than 2017, Intellicode and solution filters were the most wanted features (at least for me :) ). Look forward to a more deeper look at VS 2019 (in respect to different workloads).
I actually ran into this issue when I worked in a company with more than 50 projects in one solution, depending on each other. When it was a small independent lib you worked on, that was no problem, but when you worked on the main product, it was excruciatingly slow to build and load (I think 6-8 minutes, so most folks just didn't pull updates for the whole workday, when they could avoid it). A complementary feature would be to load a dll reference instead of the project reference. The dll references of course get outdated, (locally compared to source control), so a datetime label would be great to let you know which needs to be rebuilt.
Nice VS is getting some stuff IntelliJ had 5 years ago. Not even being snarky here, it’s genuinely nice to finally have a decent editing experience out of the box.
Excellent video. 10 to 15 minutes is a perfect size as well I think. Longer videos are nice sometimes for deep dives. Day to day though for these types of tips I much prefer a shorter format. Gives you a chance to go integrate some of these into your workflow and then maybe pick up some more next week watching another video.
Shorter and more videos are better in my opinion, I can watch one whole during a work break for example and you get right down to the nitty-gritty. Great video, thank you!
Boy do I feel stupid after years of copy-pasting between Visual Studio and Notepad, just to accomplish the same as VS could do for me all along 😆 We definitely need more videos like this! Thank you!
@@MadsKristensen It's only a fail if you don't recall why you noted it as a point. I get what you mean and why you did so. It's not a feature of VS over all per se but rather an added feature to the console-app generator in that it automatically created a ReadKey statement to avoid an automatic shutdown of the console when it is run. Features are primarily about time saving and this is certainly among them. Thanks for all of your tremendous efforts.
Wow, all the problems I have got are fixed in this new version. Especially the solution filter thing damnnnnnn! Amazing work Microsoft! I couldn't be more happier to be specialized in .NET in 2019 :)
Automatic reformatting of the entire source file. I bet more pedantic programmers just love that feature. Even the default formatting rules are so sweet. Like who writes curly brackets in the same line with else keyword?
This is cool, but i need more deeper talking episodes.. because the question and answer, question and demo etc.. will make the listeners mind dive-in and think a lot about the features.. Thank you
I love the new features that Mads presented, but I actually prefer the longer format over a shorter format, even though I see from other comments I'm probably in the minority. To be honest sometimes Robert's questions can get a little annoying, but he often asks the question(s) that I find myself asking. And of course sometimes he doesn't ask the questions that I'm wanting to ask :-)
It depends. 😏 The time needed totally depends on the topic. If it's a really deep topic with many facets, then an hour is not unreasonable. If it's just a quick demo to show off a new feature, then perhaps more than 10 minutes may be too much.
I'm not seeing several of these things in VS2019 (16.0.2). Mads claimed that repeated ctrl-v pasting would run through the clipboard stack, which isn't the case. Ctrl-shift-v does give me the dropdown of the clipboard stack, though. At 4:15, where he says to hit "dot" to bring up the reformatting menu, the dot _does not_ bring up that menu. Ctrl-dot (ctrl-period) does. And even then, it does not bring up the option for adding braces. (Did he add an extension that provides more refactoring tools and forget he did so?) String.Join (or any other function with Intellisense prompting) isn't giving me starred variables to choose from. He noted that the program didn't close the window after printing "Hello Word". Well of course not. He has the Console.ReadKey() function in there to pause execution. There _is_ a new bit of functionality that prevents closing the console window after the program ends, even without the ReadKey() function, but it didn't show up in his demo.
The new Search feature within VS2019 is Awesome.. but how craaaazzzyyy would be if we could search across the internet for heellllpppp... (i.e., how to con to db, use bootstrap, etc..)
I hope there is a way to disable this new menu popping up for clipboard-ring. Previous behaviour was awesome, you press ctrl+shift+(v, insert) and bam it happens; no windows, no menus whatsoever. and without releasing ctrl+shift we were able to go around the ring too.
I liked it the 15 minutes. I would like to see Angular6.0 with JWT user Authentication? could Microsoft create a full Spa Angular ASP.NET Core templae , one with Identityframework and cookies and one with JWT ? Also could the environment variable be loaded also not in run modus witouh run debug, now i have to use debug in order to read my environment variable.
Guys like Robert, Seth Juarez and sometimes Hanselman are there to enliven the presentations and ask good questions. That's good, but since all three like to talk a lot there is always a tendency (if not checked) to make it their show, which results in longer videos which less information, which can be irritating for people who are very busy. I myself don't mind it at all if the presentator talks a little bit of nonsense sometimes, but I agree that sometimes they tend to overdo it. In this specific case I wouldn't have minded if Robert had talked for four or five extra minutes.
I actually like it short. In many cases I would avoid watching your videos because they are too long. Keep the good work guys 👌.
Me too, but great presentation guys, thank you.
15 minutes is great, 20 good. 30+ minutes - note it and maybe watch tomorrow/weekend and so usually not at all.
One of the best episode. Want more episodes with Mads Kristensen !!
More Mads, more demos. Happy for length to be as long as needed to cover the topic.

Omg that search feature on the watch window... LIFE SAVER
The most professional IDE. Love it.

Agreed, Robert has a knack of asking just the right question at just the right time.
Mads Kristensen is great. More Mads Videos showing us cool Visual Studio Tricks please!
I really like the time indicators in the descriptions. If you are only interested in some items this is a great time saver.
So many things "that's been there for a while" that I thought were awesome, let alone the new stuff. Fantastic!
i like it short. It gets me the info I need and the time saved can be spent actually exploring what was discussed.
I actually had memorized the name "Mads Kristensen" before watching this video because in every new install of visual studio the first thing I do is download his VS extensions. "Add new file" in particular is a killer one for me! (and a feature I think should be native to visual studio)
Aye, this is my first time seeing him, but I'd known that name for years due to VS extensions
Working timestamps:

Great content and length. For busy devs, the 15 minute segments work perfectly . Looking forward to the additional follow- on segments. Thanks!

Love the format. Short, bite sized, but full of value.
Nice VS is getting some stuff IntelliJ had 5 years ago. Not even being snarky here, it’s genuinely nice to finally have a decent editing experience out of the box.
The time flew by. Was interesting the whole time.

Super cool features just loved the search and handling multiple projects with profiles
Short but informative gives more time to learn. Good video !
7:28 Of course it didn't close. There's Console.ReadKey() there.
That's his favorite feature...
Yeah, I had a demo fail there. What I should have demoed is that when running without debugger, the console doesn't close after execution
@@MadsKristensen It's only a fail if you don't recall why you noted it as a point. I get what you mean and why you did so.

I'll be using all these features for sure, liked the short format very much
Yes, regular short videos and occasional deep-dive videos please.
Erhan Alankus I quite agree. Long and short form are both useful. I’ve yet to find a VS Toolbox video that I didn’t like. Kudos.
15 minutes is definitely better. Good work guys!
Amazing.. VS rocks as usual..
These videos are always nice to watch. I think if you make them longer, just add more short-cuts, because they keep you sharp :p
I definitely liked the short video style, thanks!
Shorter is better! Add //TODO /// and other efficiencies into themed feature collections
on Win10, you can press Win+V to show history clipboard too!
Wow this was amazing, thank you so much! the Clip board thing.. the stash .. thank you thank you thank you
7:40 Why would it close down? You have a readkey right after
@4:13: "I'm just gonna hit dot." -- That's Ctrl+. to bring up the Quick Actions menu!
Stashing is super helpful!
nice and short. go ahead with that!!
It depends. 😏 The time needed totally depends on the topic. If it's a really deep topic with many facets, then an hour is not unreasonable. If it's just a quick demo to show off a new feature, then perhaps more than 10 minutes may be too much.
15 minutes are enough.. Little by little for someone like who saved to watch it later and later.
Great! I prefer many short videos than 1 long video, good idea.

Solution filter! Awesome
Really liked the byte sized format. ;)
i think i prefer the short ones to be honest. good one there! i learnt a ton!
nice features, casually explained. 👍
I love it keep up the good work.
The new Search feature within VS2019 is Awesome.. but how craaaazzzyyy would be if we could search across the internet for heellllpppp... (i.e., how to con to db, use bootstrap, etc..)
This presentation is informative and useful one
I love to have the choice ;) Short + deep dive
I hope there is a way to disable this new menu popping up for clipboard-ring. Previous behaviour was awesome, you press ctrl+shift+(v, insert) and bam it happens; no windows, no menus whatsoever. and without releasing ctrl+shift we were able to go around the ring too.
hey very nice!!!\
kindly tel me about which version of crystal report is suitable for VS19 Thanks
That was perfect.
I personally don't mind the content length.. But I do want more so I hope that shorter doesn't mean there will be more videos to compensate :D
Loved it
Maybe once in a while a long video with one or more guests. And other short videos
Wow this is awesome.
Here is an idea, why don't you add array and list element preview on hover during debugging?
And more intellisense filter options like hierarchy
Great video and the time i think depend of the topic.
Welcome back guys
Love the copy paste thing awesome stuff
15 min is cool 😊
This video is perfect
15 rocks!
LOVE it!
Guess I'll be letting my Reesharper license expire when I wrap up my 2017 projects :(
Nice!
I liked it the 15 minutes. I would like to see Angular6.0 with JWT user Authentication? could Microsoft create a full Spa Angular ASP.NET Core templae , one with Identityframework and cookies and one with JWT ?

+1 for Git Stash
I like it. Thanks

I prefer the short videos. Now it's time to install VS2019.
Awesome
Hm... IntelliCode reminds me of something... ReSharper I guess?...
Show how to install intellicode... Thanks...
More pls!
He mentions the console app doesn't close at 7:25 but isn't that just due to the next line being Console.ReadKey(); ??
Thanks :)
Maybe if you do a key point on the video at the end where you’ll talk?
cool!
Shorter format is much better...more likely to watch
6:08 Wait what? You've been scanning everyone's GitHub repositories? I hope that's only the public repo's.
Public repos with lots of stars
more and more
I hate the new Project Templates window, bring back the old one please
Lots better.
C for( ever) { }
I dont like it ..
I love it 😄
Did cOvId steal a few kilograms from Mads?
😃😃😃
