Using monodevelop on Ubuntu using GTK# and lost access to the design window and widgets, how do I get them back please? I have previously used Visual Studio and, separately wxWidgets, so used to programming with GUIs

Paste special (json to a class) missing VS2019 - with all web dev tools installed

A very valuable tool is the ability to quickly grab json and create a class. Paste Special in previous versions of VS was a great feature, but I can't locate it in Visual Studio 2019.
According to this forum thread, you just need to add the ASP web development tools. I've installed everything, paste special nowhere to be found.
How/where do I go to enable this or what is the new alternative provided in Visual Studio 2019?
I've combed through all the options & individual components in Visual Studio Installer, and I've enabled just about everything where this might live. But it's still not showing up in menu.
I met the same problems in here too with 2019 visual studio and found out how to fix it.
Go to Visual Studio Installer > Modify > Individual Components > Web development Tools
It should be under the Edit menu:
If you've installed the ASP.NET tools and still don't see this, send feedback so the product team can investigate why.
If you don't do it often, just use an online JSON to class converter
The "Paste JSON as Classes" option doesn't display when in debug. Just in case you had the option, but it seemed to disappear.
Try restarting your computer. My Paste special disappeared after altering some extensions. I updated Web Essentials 2019 and then uninstalled CodeMaid. When the option disappeared, I tried restarting Visual Studio and it didnt work, but after I restarted my machine, the option came back

WIndows form GUI editor in Monodevelop

I have written a tool in Visual Studio Community using a C# windows form project. When I started the project I was unaware Microsoft insist on a user signing into an account after 30 days, (even though they offer an offline installation). For security reasons I cannot connect the computer to the internet to login. I have downloaded MonoDevelop and successfully opened and compiled the project. However, I would like to have the ability to "easily" edit the GUI. MonoDevelop's documentation seems to have little in-sight as to if this is possible. I checked out http://www.monodevelop.com/documentation/stetic-gui-designer/ which describes the process for native Mono applications. When I open the Form1.cs file, I am presented only with the option to view the source code. Is it possible to view the GUI designer?
The Stetic GUI Designer is only available for GTK 2.x based applications and not for Windows' Forms.
There is a project called WinForms Designer that might help you, it has not been updated for many years, but it still runs on at least OS-X (that is only OS that I have personally used it on).

Note: For OS-X (or Linux) using the latest Mono, you will need to update the Makefile and replace the references to gmcs to mcs

You can include NET Framework by the following way. At least in Visual Basic 2010...
Through Project Tab you open Project properties.
Then in Publish Tab you Click Prerequisites Button.
There you can select the things you want to diistribute and the way they will be distributed.

Group .net project: 1 Developer on PC with VS 2005 and 1 Developer on Mac with MonoDeveloper

I'm new to .net but a mac user. I need to team with a friend on a new project. He's currently on a pc using VS 2005. And I'd rather try Mono as oppose to running xp or vista in a VM and install VS there.
If I use Mono Developer. will we be able to share files in the same project? Is the current version of Mono Developer the equivalent of VS 2005 or 2008?
Please advise on the best way for me to do this.
Thanks in Advance

Current MonoDevelop can read and write both VS2005 and VS2008 project files, and do not automatically convert them. There is no problem with sharing solutions between VS and MD.
I am working on such project, where I'm using MD under Linux and other developer is using VS on Windows. There are no problems with it. I prefer this solution then running VS in virtual system, because of the native feel of the application and no barriers between virtual system and my native desktop.
Depending on the nature of your project that could work, but honestly, if you are working on a shared project, having both developers working on the same platform is most likely going to give you the best overall end solution.
