VS 2010 productivity improvements, Part II

You could say the code editor is the most important feature of any development experience.  After all, that's what lets you create, see, and change your code.  Without a code editor, no other features matter in an IDE.  Around the editor is built the rest of the development environment. Last week , we looked at three new features in Visual Studio 2010: multi-monitor support, multi-targeting, and code navigation.  This week I'd like to spend a little time talking about improvements to the code editor in Visual Studio 2010

VS 2010 productivity improvements – Part I

Every developer deserves a fantastic development environment that allows them to write, understand, navigate, and debug code as efficiently as possible.  After all, developers spend most of their time in the IDE. As we designed and built Visual Studio 2010, we let this principle guide the product, and I think we've delivered an IDE that raises the development experience bar significantly.  Starting today and over the coming weeks, I will highlight my favorite productivity features in Visual Studio 2010.  Some of them are small features, and some of them required a large, coordinated effort across the team, but each one makes developers' lives a little easier
