I'm too cheap for Amazon Prime. I'll wait for all the series to come out, get prime and binge for a 2 month period, then cancel prime. No need to feed my consumerism by getting extra fast shipping. Plus book 9 is a Christmas present for my wife, so I won't be able to read it till she is done with the book on Dec 26th around midnight Big Grin | :-D

I'm in!
Like you I've binged seasons 1-5 and reread all 9 books. Though one episode a week is going to test my mettle. I'm sure I'll binge the all of season 6 again once the last episode has dropped.

I posted on this a while back and never got a resolution.

Using VS2019. In SOME of my code editor windows there appears these horizontal dotted lines. They appear to be indenting indicators of some kind.

See this pic

You can see the lines highligted in red on the left. Yet they DON'T appear on the right code window. Some windows they show up, others they don't.

These really bug me. I've tried all manner of things in Settings. Anyone know how to make these go away?

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

That looks like "view whitespace". The file on the left has a mixture of spaces and tabs. The file on the right is only using tabs.

Ctrl+R, Ctrl+W is the default keyboard shortcut to toggle it; otherwise, the option is within the "Edit" menu.

This toggles on/off some little right arrows. Those are the whitespace indicators. There's nothing on the Edit menu that I can see that affects this.

But even if this was a setting of some kind, why is it on in some files and not in others?? It should be on/off across all files.

Perhaps it has something to do with the Settings for "Text Editors" where there's a sort of general bit for "All Languages" and then different settings for different ones, based on file extension... could it be that it's doing it differently depending on what type of file you're looking at?

Kevin Marois9-Dec-21 6:53

Maybe, but like I show in the pic, they doesn't show in all files.

why are you putting protected methods in a region called privat methods ?
Just curious

Protected methods are private, except that derived classes can use them. Unless you are absolutely, positively sure that some methods should not be inherited I find it best to use protected, as it makes future derivations easier.

IMHO, code for the current use case. If something needs to be added in the future it's just as easy to move it from private to protected when you add the new functionality. This isn't the kind of thing is easy to change later and won't impact future work in terms of design and architecture. Java | [Coffee]

As others have said, it almost looks like View Whitespace is on, but if that were so, you’d see dots (the space indicator) between all words as well.
I don’t have my IDE open right now, so haven’t looked for some kind of indentation indicator.
I wonder if perhaps you have an extension loaded that’s doing some inconsistent things. Have you tried unloading all extensions to see what happens? Then load them one-by-one to see whether you can isolate the behavior?

Greetings Kind Regards This no doubt not the cause but it is hard not to at least attempt it to wit emplace the statement "using System.Windows" into the left file just as it is emplaced in the right as that appears to be the only difference of any possible significance - Cheerio

Windows 11 - Again!

Kevin Marois8-Dec-21 4:42

So I posted how I "upgraded" to Win 11.

I am now going to roll back to Win 10. Here's why:

The loss of the USB connected devices continues. I have no choice but to reboot.
Now, when Win starts up and I log in, it's gets stuck with "Preparing Windows". A Google search shows this to be a common issue.

So, now I can't use my PC. I'll reboot into Safe Mode and revert.

From my experience with Visual Studio 2017 and Windows 10, Windows 11 will be stable/usable once Windows 12 comes out and they stop adding new features to break it.

A clean install seems to be a safer option. Clone existing drive, format, reinstall. If it goes south, restore the clone.

And so much for W11 being W10 reskinned, seems they fiddled a lot under the hood to break things.
