I have a Visual Studio solution that is open for both package 2 SP1 and VS2008 SP1 at the same time.
If I make changes to VS, switch to blend, he notices that the project has changed and reloaded things, however this is really unreliable. Sometimes he does not notice the changes and sometimes notices the changes, but does not reload all the files that have been changed. The following are noteworthy:
If I have a xaml file open in blend, and edit it in VS, when I switch back to blend, often it does not raise the edited source code
If I add a new file to the project using VS (image or xaml file or something else) and then return it to blend, it will not show the added file.
The only way I was able to get confused to notice these changes is to close the project and reopen it, as well as to complete and re-launch. This is really annoying. What I would like to do is force mixing to reload the project without closing or opening it.
It seems like it should be obvious and easy (F5 will be nice), but I could not find anything! Help!
