  • 0

Arg! I have a custom “harness” executable running my class library project. Every time I step into the harness’s code, I get that “No Source Available” pane popping up. As I know there is no source available, and that this is completely expected, I don’t want this very intrusive and useless pane popping up every time. How can I suppress it completely?

I can make it smaller at least by making that window part of another smaller pane-set, such as with the watches/locals. It remembers its location from run to run, but its still useless.

There might be a more general answer to this question – how can I suppress any particular pane/window from showing at all? I have a VSX package, originally built for VS 2008 (and must keep that compatibility) but I just don’t know what command to run to do it. (I had the package commissioned, so I have the source, but not the know-how. This seems like a one/two liner).

Thanks!

    After finding no help on this, I dug in to it myself and fixed it by Hiding the WindowFrame in the event that it is shown. There is no visual refresh glitch that I’ve seen so far.

    Here is the GUID for the “No Source Available” pane: {1820bae5-c385-4492-9de5-e35c9cf17b18}

    I found most of what I needed from this post:

    I believe this will only affect solutions with this package loaded, but really I don’t know if the package stays loaded/active if the related project is closed.
