PowerCommands Renewed for Visual Studio 2022
PowerCommands RenewedMicrosoft DevLabs provided a nice set of Power Commands, but stopped supporting them with Visual Studio 2022. They say it's because some of them have now been baked-in to the product. While that may be true, some beloved commands from that extension are no longer available. So, this extension project's aim is to bring them back. The first ones I've added are listed below. Individual power commands can be enabled or disabled from the Power Commands Renewed page in Tools -> Options in Visual Studio. Some Power Commands are enabled by default. Below is a list of the commands included in Power Commands Renewed for Visual Studio 2012. Format document on saveEnables formatting of tabs, spaces and other characters in a document to be saved. It is equivalent to using Format Document command under the Edit->Advanced menu. Disabled by default. Remove and Sort Usings on saveRemoves unused using statements and sorts the remaining using statements in the C# document being saved. Disabled by default. Collapse ProjectsCollapses a project or projects in the Solution Explorer starting from the root selected node. This option resides in three different places on the Solution Explorer: Solution, Solution folders and Project nodes. Remove and Sort UsingsRemoves and sort using statements for all classes given a project. It is useful, for example, in removing or organizing the using statements generated by a wizard. This command can be executed from a solution node or a single project node. Copy/Paste ClassCopies/Pastes a selected class's entire content to/from the clipboard. When pasting a class, it is renamed to avoid a compilation error. It can be executed from a single project item or a project item with dependent sub items. More information / requests / suggestionsIf you had a favorite command from that pre-VS2022 extension or some other command idea, please add an issue to the Issues section of the project's GitHub page. I'm in-between job right now so I might just be able to put it in soon.
