Hello! Well, I'm writing an add-in for VS .Net which was intended to be in Tools menu. What a suprise it was to find out that after installing VA my add-in just disappeared from Tools menu (well spend 5 hours trying to find out how was that possible). After spending quite a lot time with debugger I'm accedentally find out that my add-in was installed in VASisstX->Tools menu instead of VS Tools menu. So as other add-in (well it was C++ test). So, it's probably worth to rename this menu (VAssistX->Tools) to fix this issue with others addins.
Best wishes, Eugene |

Yes, VA seems to move all custom Tools menu items to its own Tools submenu. When you uninstall VA all other custom VAssistX -> Tools menu items go back to the main Tools menu, so there's no loss. It's a bit irritating at first, though... |

No, it's just the way it is I guess. |

Is it the name or what? If so, then this problem should only exist on the english versions. |

The problem is with the name of our Tools submenu.
VSIP does not let one select which "Tools" menu under which to create an item? The one in the menu bar, or the one in the VAssistX menu?
We will change our name. |

Now that is clever. The guys at MS are surprising over and over. What about "Utilities" or "Helpers" ? |

Well I don't know if there is a way to specify under which menu to create an item. What I know is that if you specify the "Tools" menu in your add-in (for example like this: CommandBar commandBar = (CommandBar)commandBars["Tools"]; (C#)) the VAX Tools menu will be selected, instead of VS Tools menu. |
