14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft has updated a free resource designed to enable developers leveraging Visual Studio 2010 to improve their workflow and productivity. The refreshed version of the Visual Studio 2010 Keybinding Posters are now up for grabs from the Microsoft Download Center. The posters are set up to make it as easy as possible for devs to take advantage of the keyboard shortcuts available for common commands in Visual Studio 2010.
“Earlier this week the Visual Studio team released updated VS 2010 Keyboard Shortcut Posters. These posters are print-ready documents (that now support standard paper sizes), and provide nice “cheat sheet” tables that can help you quickly lookup (and eventually memorize) common keystroke commands within Visual Studio,” revealed Scott Guthrie, corporate vice president of Microsoft's .NET Developer Platform.
Microsoft wrapped up Visual Studio 2010 earlier this year and released it along .NET Framework 4. At the bottom of this article users will be able to find a variety of links designed to allow them to download both VS2010 RTM and .NET 4 RTM. The Visual Studio 2010 RTM downloads offered by the Redmond company are trial-based releases, which means that developers will get to test drive the product for a limited period of time only. Being time-bombed, the Visual Studio 2010 trial will expire, while still allowing users to upgrade to a full license.
“This week’s updated posters incorporate a number of improvements: letter-sized (8.5”x11”) print ready versions are now available; A4-sized (210x297mm) print ready versions are now available; the goofy people pictures on them are gone. The posters are in PDF format – enabling you to easily download and print them using whichever paper size is in your printer. Posters are available for each language. Simply look for the download that corresponds to your language preference (note: CSharp = C#, VB = VB, FSharp = F#, CPP = C++),” Guthrie added.
