Re: Focus on unsuccessful builds

In visual studio 2005, when I hit shift-F8 to build, if the build fails, the focus leaves the edit window, requiring me to use my mouse to set focus back into the edit window to continue using VI. Is there a way to prevent this (always keep the focus in the edit window)?

thanks,

-kevin

disregard my last - simply hitting ESC will set the focus back to the edit window.

Re: Focus on unsuccessful builds

Yes Kevin, it's an annoying thing, but using ESC is the best solution I've found so far. I'm planning to experiment with enabling ViEmu in the Output and other windows after 2.0 is released (I will be sending it for testing to some users later this week, it's almost finished and looking great).
