[RESOLVED] Development IDE show Start page on toolbar
Hi,
I read somewhere that there is a toolbar that contains an item to access the "Start Page" instead of clicking View --> Start Page. I've hunted through the toolbars and can't find it. Does anyone know where it is?
I've attached an image which has the toolbar that I'm after, it's located on the right.
Cheers Al
Re: Development IDE show Start page on toolbar
What you have highlighted is not a toolbar. It is just a subset of the buttons on the Standard toolbar. Presumably you are using VB Express, which displays the Standard toolbar by default, as you'd expect, but doesn;t display the Start Page button on that toolbar. Just about every Microsoft application provides similar functionality to edit menus and toolbars though, and VS is no different. You can add, remove and arrange the buttons however you like. Just right-click on the menu/toolbar area and select Customize, then go to town.

Jmcilhinney,
Hi and thanks for your reply.
I'm using visual studio 2010 pro. when I do as you suggest the toolbox and start page options are not displayed under the standard toolbar. See the attached.
Add or Remove buttons --> Customize...
I've clicked reset all, but that didn't make any difference.
Any thoughts?
Al

Hi,
Eureka, I've figured it out.
I changed my development environment from web developer to general and the missing options have magically appeared.
- Tools -> Import and Export Settings...
- Select Reset All Settings and click Next
- Select whether you would like to save the current settings and click Next
- Select the settings you want to use and click Finish
Cheers Al
