Nice to see someone else still using VS2008.

Never stumbled across any cool/handy ones, only ones that I wish I hadn't found. One of the most annoying, because it can easily occur accidentally, is hitting ALT in an Excel spreadsheet.
|

|
|
There's also the joy of Scroll Lock in Excel.

You just ruined my day by reminding me!

THANK YOU!!!
I've been looking for a Visual Studio equivalent to Visual Studio Code's Ctrl+P (Goto File) forever and you've shown it to me...
Now I just need to remap it to Ctrl+P (I mean, who prints out their code?) and I'll be 💯happy.
Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

Has anyone ever tried to invent a cat-shield for a laptop keyboard? And maybe an optional project-screen-onto-cat feature that would help when he's blocking that?
Dean Kamen, Elon Musk, Tony Stark - did they think of anything so handy?

I've got a really effective cat shield. Two pit pulls outside and a Shih-Tzu inside. Never have problems with cats on my keyboard, or anywhere else for that matter.

I accidentally discovered that F11 in Chrome switches it to full screen. And only F11 will switch it back out of full screen. ESC doesn't do it!
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

In most Windows browsers  Edge shows a notification on how to switch back, but I think I've been stuck in full screen with Firefox before.
|
|

Grandma finds this one all the time. Half my phone calls with her include the phrase "F11".
|
|
|
|
|
Isn't that a standard key for full screen? Firefox, Vivaldi, VLC, Featherpad, MPC-HC and many others use it.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes it is. But she only uses Chrome, so there you go.
Being 91 means you already have a lot to remember already.

Heh, I understand. My wifey has problems remembering ctrl-c, ctrl-v.

For Visual Studio 2017/2019, there's this handy extension[^] which shows you the shortcut assigned to any commands you don't invoke from a shortcut.
(The VS2022 version is on the todo list[^].)

Cool, looks nice. I'll need to install that one once VS2022 support is done.

I originally read this as "flux capacitor" and I was like, "Holy crap" how do I do that!.
Having a PC that can actually time travel would be amazing, both good and bad.

Mine does, but only forward and only one second at a time :P

I've found by installing Win10, I can go back in time. Based on boot time and usability, I'm back to about 2005 now. I'm expecting to go a bit further back once I "upgrade" to Win11.

have you tried ALT+F4?! 
|
|
|
|
|
Ctrl-F4 is handy for closing tabs

I some times zoom/magnify my Outlook window.
Maybe mouse wheel or something on the ten key?
I wish I knew the reverse. I always have to dig through the ribbons to undo it.
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe it's ctrl + mouse wheel? Or ctrl and the + key? Ctrl - should undo it. With Web browsers ctrl + 0 usually resets it to the default zoom level.
|
|
|
|
|
Control+ zooms in, control- zooms out, control0 returns to 'normal'
