One of the “about bloody time” features that we’ve added to VS is round tripping of projects. Basically, the majority of projects can be opened back and forth between VS2010 and VS11 without any changes.

Seconded on different versions thing. Switching between 2010 and 2008 little changes in menus really slow me down. Doing >of classname in 2010 with the auto complete is very very annoying.

Thanks for the feedback. On the three different versions things, why are you using three? What you building that still requires 2005/2008?

I agree, somewhat, about the colour, but feel you've gone too far towards monochrome. And if you make me learn a new set of damned icons, I won't use the bloody thing. This is one thing I wish Microsoft would stop tinkering with. Icons, menu layouts, dialog layouts. Some of us don't move on completely from one version to another, but use 3 different versions of VS. Do you have any idea how painful this is? [Description: Pictographic icons from VS 2010 on the top row with the equivalent VS 11 glyphs on the bottom row] Take the comment/uncomment icons. WTF are they meant to represent? </rant> -- Meski http://courteous.ly/aAOZcv "Going to Starbucks for coffee is like going to prison for sex.
