macro

I'm trying to write a macro that toggles between release/debug solution configurations in Visual Studio.

It appears I can switch the configuration by using 'DTE.ExecuteCommand("Build.SolutionConfigurations", "Debug")'.

Is there a way I can 'read' the value? Or is there a way I can use macros to 'focus' on the solution configuration UI element?

Asciidoc image inline macro vs. image block macro

I don't understand in which context an image block macro would be preferable to an image inline macro. I played around with a little test document and the only difference I could see is that I could "inline" (who would have guessed ;-)) the inline macro. So why not always use the inline version? >>> More
