Can I change the width of the Solution Configuration combobox in the IDE?


Can I increase the width of the Solution Configuration combobox of MS Visual Studio IDE? I want to see the full name, for example Debug (Local) or Debug (Remote). Also tooltip writes the Solution Configuration text instead of combobox' current value.

Solution

  • Yes you can. you must enter in "add or remove buttons -> customize". Inside the commands tab select the button you want to customize and click "modify selection" you change the width value there. Take a look here
