Sample Browser Visual Studio Extension allows developers to search and download 4500+ code samples from within Visual Studio 2012 and Visual Studio 2010. It is provided by Microsoft All-In-One Code Framework in partnership with Visual Studio Team and MSDN Samples Gallery. The...
(v1.4) It is probably a good tool when it works, but for me it does not work behind an authenticating proxy and crashes when trying to open the samples which were downloaded from the site manually. Opened a ticket on this issue.
The 'Search Code Samples' bar takes up a lot of space that I'd like to reclaim. As this is added to the 'Standard' toolbar, I cannot find a means to remove it. Just being able to look for samples using the FILE menu application is good enough for me. So... How can I remove this toolbar add-on?
Go to Tools/Customize... select Commands tab, then select Toolbar and choose Standard from drop-down menu. You can now delete Search Code Samples from the Controls pane.
I am in the same boat as Kobus - I want to be able to move the extension commands from the main toolbar to one of their own. I know you can delete them from the Standard Toolbar, but I cannot seem to find them in the list of commands to add to a toolbar through Customize. Am I missing something?
I would like to be able to login so that the items I have marked as favorites online would be available on whatever machine I am running the All-In-One Samples Browser. Thanks!!!
Hello Anton
Could you please let me know the version number of Sample Browser VS Extension installed in your environment? You can find the version number in Visual Studio / Extension Manager / Installed Extension / Select Sample Browser Visual Studio Extension.
Hi Jialiang,
I don't remember it. I solved this problem with removing the Sample Browser version and installing it again from scratch.
Now it's 5.815 and so I think if you take some earlier version you can reproduce the problem.
Is there a network issue today as well?
With or without using IE proxy i get "A network error occurred. Please try configuration proxy and check network connectivity"
I also have the same problem with the Proxy not working using IE's Proxy Setting and IE set to 'Automatically Detect Settings' both checked and unchecked. I'm using IE9.
