But then you'll get people complaining that they can't customise the shortcuts, and the default isn't the key they want to use. :laugh:

Agreed. And I have no problem with allowing customization... But out of the box it should be the same.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

Well, according to Microsoft, it is:
Default Keyboard Shortcuts in Visual Studio[^]:
Debug.Restart: Ctrl+Shift+F5 Debug.Start: F5 Debug.StartWithoutDebugging: Ctrl+F5 Debug.StopDebugging: Shift+F5
Have you picked a different keyboard mapping scheme?

That would be a hysterical GPO, just to mess with the devs.

You should probably report it to Microsoft as a bug, then. :)

In VS2017, prior to 15.2, Start Page was under the View menu. Now its under the File menu. I don't want to File the Start Page, I want to view it.

Here's another great change - at least in my VS installations... Create a class and add an interface (eg ": IMyInterface").. Used to be you could Right Click on the interface name and choose Implement Interface. Now, you have highlight the interface name and choose "CTRL+." - ya, that's intuitive. In VS2017 (Maybe 15 too) a dialog opens which is fine, but the control to open it went from RC'ing to "CTRL+." I mean, really?????

The point here is that for default installations both Richard and I are seeing different defaults.

I use R#, so it's always Alt+Enter. :D I guess they switched to Ctrl+. when they moved to Roslyn (VS2015), and dramatically increased the number of built-in refactorings.

They are talking about compiling not debug. I have VS 2012 and Build Solution is F7 and Compile is Ctrl-F7.

Compile. And you just proved my point. Where did F7 come from???

Maybe it differs from US to UK keyboards?

Could be, because the Brit's say "F5" and "F6" differently than us yanks ;P ;P ;P

It's always been F5 for me. And Ctrl+Shift+F5 is bound to the "Debug.Restart" command.
Well you just validated my grievance. Should't the option to Compile be the same regardless of version?

When you first start up Visual Studio it asks what settings you want to use, C#, VB.Net, etc. That will initially set your shortcut keys as well.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data. There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

But it is: it's F5, and it always has been, in every version of Visual Studio I can remember, at least since "Visual Studio .NET" in 2002. :confused: EDIT: Correction - F5 is
Debug.Start.Build.Compileis Ctrl+F7, andBuild.BuildSolutionis Ctrl+Shift+B. Default Keyboard Shortcuts in Visual Studio | Microsoft Docs[^] The VS2012 version of the documentation[^] shows how the mapping (used to?) differ depending on which scheme you selected when you first started Visual Studio.

For you it is. It's F6 on my Home PC and both my work PC's. And the other Dev's here say the same. That right there is my point. It should be the same for ALL Visual Studio installations everywhere.

F5 is Run over here. F6 is Build. I've bound SHIFT+F6 to ReBuild.
