Increase Dev Workflow Speed by using Publish Shortcut [Alt + b, h ]

Posted by matteskolin on

Today’s shortcut is [Alt + b, h] This will open open the build menu and select the Publish Project option.

This option is useful when you are working on more than one content file at a time. Or else I prefer to use [Alt + ‘;’, Alt + ‘p’] which publishes the currently open file which can be much faster if you have a lot of content.

I have tested this in VS 2019 for a Web Application Project.

Tools -> Options -> Environment – Preview Features

make sure the below check box is NOT checked.

After the title bar is restored, it should look like this below..
