Hi,

Some surround snippets I use a LOT, like static_cast<$end$>($selection$), is there some way to assign a hotkey in visual studio to individual snippets?

The whole right click, click surround snippets, navigate to desired snippet, click it, has way too many steps :)

Thanks

Sandra

No, unfortunately you cannot do that.
However, the snippet "#ifdef (VA X)" can be triggered by the # key (Shift+3). So if you overwrite it, you will be able to trigger it by this keystroke.

As an alternative you could probably write an IDE macro to emulate that VA Snippet, and then assign the IDE macro to a specific keyboard shortcut.

Thanks, that's a pretty good idea.
