Start Window

With this release, we've introduced a brand new way of interacting with your projects and getting you to where you need to go in the IDE.

If you're a new Visual Studio for Mac user, you'll be prompted to log in when you first open the IDE. By logging in you can activate your Professional or Enterprise account or connect to Azure. If you're not ready to sign in, you can press the Skip button and sign in through the Visual Studio > Sign In menu item.

Microsoft Office 2019 For Mac

You'll then be greeted with the new start window. This window has three main sections, allowing you to create or open new and existing projects:

  • Recent Projects: Here you can find a list of your 25 most recent projects. You can optionally 'pin' your most frequently used project, if you'd prefer to keep them at the top of the list. The search box can be used to filter through all recent projects in the list.
  • Open: You can open any .csproj, .fsproj, .sln or any other supported file from your local directory using this button.
  • New: You can select from the many pre-populated templates to help you get started with a new project. The new project dialog will take you through all the necessary configurations to help you get up and running.

New Code Editor

Visual Studio for Mac 2019 contains a preview of the next generation text editor for Visual Studio for Mac! This new text editor shares the same core components with Visual Studio Windows, with an entirely new, native user interface.

At this time, the new editor supports C# files only. Additional language support will be added in future releases.

The new Visual Studio for Mac editor brings the following features:

  • Native macOS (Cocoa-based) user interface (tooltips, editor surface, margin adornments, text rendering, IntelliSense)
  • Support for native text inputs
  • RTL/BiDi language support
  • Common Visual Studio Platform core
  • Roslyn 3
  • Multi-caret support
  • Word Wrap
  • Update IntelliSense UI
  • Improved Find/Replace

Exceptions now use the Cocoa UI to display exception messages, including exception notification and details:

Context Menu Navigation is enabled. You can now use context menu based navigation commands like 'Go to Declaration' and 'Go To Implementation'. We have also enabled 'Remove and Sort Usings'.

How to enable or disable the editor

As the new editor is a preview feature within Visual Studio for Mac 2019, you have to opt-in to use the feature. Go to the Visual Studio > Preferences… > Text Editor > General section and check the Open C# files in the New Editor checkbox. Once this option is checked, any newly opened C# files will be using the new editor. You will know the new editor is enabled when the 'New Editor Preview' button appears in the bottom-right of the editing window.

Microsoft Error Reporting Mac 2019

To disable the new editor, either click the New Editor Preview button in the bottom right of the editor pane and select Disable the New Editor Preview or navigate to the Visual Studio > Preferences… > Text Editor > General section and un-check the Open C# files in the New Editor checkbox.

How to Report a Problem with the editor

To report a problem in the new editor, either click the 'New Editor Preview' button in the bottom right of the editor pane and select 'Report a Problem'. You can also go directly to Developer Community.

Support for multiple instances

Visual Studio for Mac now supports opening multiple instances of the IDE from the dock. Visual Studio for Mac has always had support for opening multiple solutions in one window but we’ve heard a lot of requests to support multiple windows for the IDE. To open a new instance, right-click on the icon in the dock and select New Instance:

Set Startup projects

A new command, Set Startup Projects, is available to make it easier to create a solution Run Configuration that will launch multiple projects when debugging. For information on setting multiple startup projects, see the documentation.

Debugging improvements for Unity

In this release we've replaced the debugger that's used for Unity projects with the debugger from Visual Studio Tools for Unity on Windows. This change has better compatibility with older versions of Unity, improvements for debugging unsafe C# code, and provides better reliability.

Xamarin Improvements

Xamarin developers should find a ton of improvements in this release. New highlights include:

Xamarin.Android

We know that developers run through the build-deploy-debug cycle countless times a day, and we're consistently working towards shortening the inner development loop even more. In this release, we've made huge gains by optimizing incremental builds and deployments.

Using the SmartHotel360 app for testing, incremental build times have been trimmed by up to 29%, and deployment times are up to twice as fast. A full report of build performance profiling and methodology is available on the Xamarin.Android wiki, but here’s a quick overview:

StepVisual Studio 2017Visual Studio 2019Delta
First build01:04.2000:50.13-21.95%
Incremental Build (XAML Change)00:10.6200:07.47-29.66%
Deploy (XAML Change)00:09.0300:04.44-50.83%

Our mission to continually increase build reliability continues and one area we've made optimizations to is Android resource updates. By minimizing scenarios where resource updates would occur at build time, there should be a significant reduction of build issues stemming from conflicts in this area.

In a step towards parity with the Android in Visual Studio on Windows experience, the deployment process has been further streamlined and the Android emulator will now launch when starting a build.

Xamarin.Forms

The brand-new template for Xamarin Forms Shell projects is now available, and for a more uniform experience across IDEs, this release also includes new file templates previously available only in Visual Studio on Windows. You can use the new XAML files today by navigating to File > New File… > Forms in the Visual Studio 2019 for Mac menu. The new file items are:

  • Forms ListViewPage XAML
  • Forms MasterDetailPage XAML
  • Forms TabbedPage XAML
  • Forms ViewCell XAML

And to help make productivity a touch better, Intellisense in Xamarin.Forms XAML files for FontFamily support is now available:

Android Designer

We now have support for Android Pie (9.0)! Additionally, we made enhancements to increase Android Designer start up time and improved scrolling widget support.

This release also ships support for adding “standard” XML namespaces to documents when a corresponding attribute is set, as well as support for escape sequences like '@', '?' and Unicode escape sequences.

iOS Designer

We’ve added support for PDF as an image format, and improved support for color spaces and color precision. Additionally, you can now select named colors from asset catalogs as the value for color properties.

We now have support for custom controls that need to load native dynamic libraries or frameworks (note that static libraries are not supported). Additionally, custom properties of type CGSize will now appear in the property panel for custom controls

Azure Functions improvements

We have updated Azure Functions runtime and templates (CLI) in this release. In addition, Visual Studio for Mac will offer you the ability to update your function templates if new templates are available when creating a new Functions project. To update Azure Functions templates, select the update button next to the text 'Updated templates are available':

Visual Studio for Mac also supports Azure Functions CLI installed via HomeBrew and will choose the instance with the highest discovered version.

New Features

Accessibility

This release of Visual Studio 2019 for Mac brings a refreshed color palette, new icons, and updated warning and error status messages. Color contrast ratios for text and icons have been increased to improve clarity. Visual Studio for Mac also now fully suports macOS High Contrast Mode.

In addition to the visual changes, this release of Visual Studio 2019 for Mac has made a number changes to increase overall accessibility of the IDE. These include:

  • Improvements to focus order and visibility when using VoiceOver in the debugger, NuGet Package Manager and project options dialog.
  • Areas previously inaccessible by keyboard navigation, such as the pin and eye icon, are now navigable by keyboard.
  • Enhanced feedback from VoiceOver for debugger staus.
  • After creating a project using the New Project Dialog, the IDE now accurately announces “project created” status message to VoiceOver users.
  • Fixes to the NuGet Package manager that allow keyboard access to the Browse, Installed, Update and Consolidate tabs.
  • VoiceOver now announces the selected version in the 'New version' dropdown.
  • VoiceOver now announces more information when using version control, the publish to Azure feature, and in a number of additional areas.

Version Control

We replaced our old Git implementation with a wrapper around the official Git command line client, which is already used by Visual Studio on Windows, in order to improve the overall performace and reliability of Git support in the IDE. The new Git support depends on the official git client. The recommended way to install Git is to install it as part of the Xcode Command Line Tools by running xcode-select --install in the Terminal app (Xcode does not need to be installed).

Debugger

  • Function breakpoints can now be edited.
  • We have improved stepping performance in .NET Core projects.

Editor

  • We updated Light & Dark themes to match Visual Studio.

Installer

  • We added a new item to the carousel to allow users to sign up for ASP.NET Core tips.
  • We added support to implement CLI tools required by version control.
  • We integrated error reporting to aid in improving future quality.

Web and Azure

  • We bumped to the latest .NET Core release.
  • We added authentication support in the New Project Dialog for ASP.NET Core projects.
  • We added support for v2/v3 of Azure Functions runtime.

NuGet

  • We bumped NuGet to 5.4.

Xamarin

  • You can now see a hierarchy of your Xamarin.Forms controls in the Document Outline pane. On Windows, it can be opened with Ctrl+Alt+T (View > Other Windows > Document Outline). On Mac, you can open it via Views > Pads > Document Outline.
  • When debugging multiple projects at the same time, you can now use XAML Hot Reload simultaneously on both targets. For example, you can use XAML Hot Reload to see how your XAML change looks on both an iOS and Android phone at the same time. Learn more about debugging multiple process in the Visual Studio 2019 documentation.
  • You can now set the default iOS Designer in Visual Studio for Mac. Any changes made in the Xcode storyboard designer will be synchronized back to Visual Studio for Mac automatically.
  • You can now apply Android resource changes at runtime using Android Apply Changes. This feature allows you to quickly see changes made to your Android resource files (XML layouts, drawables, etc) on an Android device or emulator without requiring the application to be restarted.
  • You can now generate your own custom profiles when using startup tracing in your Android application. This provides you an even more performant startup experience with a minimal increase to APK size.
  • You can now generate Xamarin.Android bindings against Kotlin libraries.
  • You can now use the Google Manifest Merger when merging AndroidManifest.xml files in your Android projects. This allows you to customize how each manifest and its contents will be merged. For more details on rules that can be applied, please see Merge multiple manifest files.
  • The option to use shared project has been removed when creating a new Xamarin.Forms app. New Xamarin.Forms apps will now use .NET Standard to ensure the best development experience.
