Visual Studio :: Masterpage Won't Display In The Editor?
Oct 2, 2010
I've got an interesting one here - I honestly don't think I've had this issue before. My folder system looks something like this (as noobish as it may be):
-Root ../Pages ../Pages/Admin ../Pages/OtherFolder ../Pages/AnotherFolder etc.
Now - I've got a Masterpage file in the Pages folder which is the general look of the entire site. Then, in each Pages Folder there's going to be another Masterpage inheriting the Page Folder Masterpage File.This seemed like a very simple and standard approach. But I'm having an issue. When editing the application in VWD2008E - I can see the Page Masterpage file just fine in Design View. But when trying to look at the the Masterpage Files, say the Admin Folder or the OtherFolder, in Design View - nothing shows except the Page Masterpage. It's really frustrating. Oddly, when running the application, no errors pop up and the sub-folder masterpages/pages show up just fine. They simply won't display in the editor.
I know for those who dont use it may think this is minor, but it appears that VS2010 has done away with the "Brief" style editor. Brief style editing makes me way more productive since I am one that tends to spend most of my time in the code. Does anyone know how to turn on Brief style editing in VS 2010 or are there any plans to add it in?
I'm faced with an usual problem. Currently, I'm working on a site as a hobby and I want to use a text editor. The problem is I do all my work from school. Unfortunately the school uses a drive shield on all their computers. So every time you turn off the computer it wipes the hard drive clean and uses an image of the original operating system once booted up. With this said - could I still download a text editor and have it working for visual studio without too much trouble?
Simple question, ok a contentplaceholder is implemented for Page-specific content.What about header region, advertisment, recommended books, footer etc1- What do you insert this as? 2- how do you adjust the size the way you want it?
In the picture below, can anyone tell me what the 2 colored bar is between my header and my navigation menu? I was wanting to change the color of it to match my site, but I can't figure out what it is. The image is a screenshot that I took when I was running the program. When I am in Visual Studio it doesn't show up at all in my Master Page or in my Default.aspx
When I edit .aspx or .cshtml file in the Visual Studio and press Ctrl-F5 (run), it runs the current file in the browser. How do I make it to avoid this and always open the app's site URL instead?
i am using VS 2005 with Sql Server 2005 Business Inteligance Studio. All my reports are by default open in Xml editor, not in Report Desginer. how to change it to Report Desginer , i don't find any open with option .
perhaps i have found a bug in Visual Studio 2008 Team Edition.Every thing was going well.
I started to build my project, but for certain reasons i went to Built Tab and while the project wes in build process i clicked Cancel Button.Alas!! after that my class file has gone to non-editable mode.It is giving this error:
"cannot currently modify this text in the editor.It is read only ".I closed and again opened Project but no improvement.I went to Tool->Import Export Setting->reset all settings but no benefit.
Does anyone have a recommendation of a link(s) that provides a variety of color schemes either to be set manually or through a file for VS.NET 2008? For example instead of the default, white background with blue and black letters (VB.NET), etc. I want to see some contrasting black background color schemes or other combinations?
My development groups uses shelf sets for doing code reviews. When a shelf set has a new-to-source-control file, I need to view it. I had configured Notepad as my viewer application for several file suffixes but now I would like to change that to another application. Problem is that I cannot find anywhere how to change that association--it is *not* the Windows-wide app/file-type asociation kept in the Windows registry.
how to reset the default application assignments used in shelf set reviews?
I just installed Visual studio 2010 ultimate RC on my windows 7 server. It doe snot show line number. So I went to Tool->Option->Editor, however, there is no where I cna find line number choice.
I used to have Visual Studio 2010 professional beta, it has the same problem, no line number to show up. However, it has a check box: line number. Even if I check the box, still no line number to show up.
I am trying to set up a solution - projects folder structure. I am trying to keep CSS, master pages, Themes, Images and login page as a common web application project and reference them when needed in any other web site or web application in the same solution. Is it possible to do it? If so, is it a best practice? If not, what is the best practice to do this?
Using Visual Web Developer 10, I've been re-designing my site. When I attempt to size a table cell down, it smashes all my text in the shrinking cell long before any sides are near the edges. Also, it refuses to size down further, it simply stops. Then, if I take the css formatting out of the smashed text, it fixes it, but increases the size of the table cell! lol.
What good alternative products are there to make my asp.net site or to stop this irritating problem.
I have a masterpage with a content area. When viewing a page in the designer the content area is so narrow it blows the page formatting to pieces. When viewed in a browser it looks fine, just looks bad in the designer.
I've seen other projects on other computers that don't have this problem ... is there a setting for this?
I know I've seen this in one of the video tutorials but I have no idea which one and I have reinstalled VS since then. I think it was Chris Pels that showed how to set up VS so that you had IntelliSense for XML files. The reason I ask is because I'm going through the Security tutorials series and working on the web.config file and the editor doesn't highlight the closing or opening tag when you click on one or the other like it does for HTML or C#.
Not sure if I'm explaining this clearly or not. When working with HTML or C# I can click on the opening tag for an element, say a div tag and VS will bold the type of the closing div tag. This makes it easy to be sure that I'm not messing up my tags. Well this doesn't happen with an XML document. I saw in one of the videos where the author configured the settings in VS so that IntelliSense would work in an XML document. I just don't remember the path to those settings or what changes were made.
I have an Editor control on my page and the user can go in use it hit save and that all works.
In another part of the page I have a simple dropdown to select a note and view it. When you push view it loads the text which was entered in via the editor control.
If the user used an order or unordered list. The text shows up but not the list part.
So if they did this:
Example ThisAnd this
What is displaying is
Example This And This
Without the bullets. Same for the numbers.
I have it going to a literal control which should render the html, but it doesn't.
i was wondering if visual studio 2010 can be used as an assembly editor too????if yes where do i have to go to create a first blank page for an assembly project?
