Issue 1: Distracting White Outline Box on Current Line

Untitled

Solution:

  1. Go to Tools > Options.
  2. Navigate to Text Editor > General.
  3. Under the Display section, uncheck Highlight Current Line.
  4. Click OK to save the changes.

Issue 2: Code Style Colors Lose their Color Causing a Flash Effect While Scrolling

Update: None of the below solutions work for me. I would just recommend going back to VSCode like I did.

Solution:

  1. Just wait 10 seconds before doing anything when VS2022 starts up. In other words wait for all the colors to settle. That's it. This solves the issue. This just sadly looks like a quirk of VS2022 and there's nothing we can do about it.

Alternative Solution:

  1. Go to Tools > Options
  2. Navigate to Environment > General
  3. Disable Optimize rendering for screens with different pixel densities
  4. Disable Automatically adjust visual experience based on client performance
  5. Disable Enable rich client visual experience
  6. Click OK to save the changes.
  7. Restart VS2022

Side Note 1: Keep Use hardware graphics acceleration if available enabled, this will prevent screen tearing when scrolling. In some cases even with all the above options are disabled the problem will still occur but it will be much more rare. Restarting VS2022 will resolve the issue.

Side Note 2: Clearing the entire VS2022 cache, uninstalling all extensions and reverting back to the default theme will not solve the issue.

Issue 3: Backspace Key and Other Keys do not Work

Solution:

  1. Restart Visual Studio 2022.
  2. If the issue persists, restart Visual Studio 2022 again. Multiple restarts may be necessary.

Side Note: Try experimenting with resetting key mappings in Tools > Options > Environment > Keyboard to see if it resolves the issue without requiring multiple restarts.

Issue 4: Ctrl + D does not duplicate current line onto next line

Issue 4 may be related to issue 3.

Solution:

  1. Go to Tools > Options.
  2. Navigate to Environment > Keyboard.
  3. In the Show commands containing text box, type Edit.Duplicate.
  4. Select the Edit.Duplicate command from the list.
  5. In the Press shortcut keys text box, press Ctrl + D.
  6. Click Assign to assign the shortcut.
  7. Click OK to save the changes.

If nothing above works for you, try opening Template.sln before opening any script directly in the game engine.
