Why would the new Code Lens
option not be available in Visual Studio 2013 Professional? How can I add it (back?) into VS2013?
Example on how it should look:
Example on how my Options looks:
Go to Tools > Options > Text Editor > All Languages > CodeLens. When the indicators are turned on, you can also open the CodeLens options from the indicators. Turn CodeLens file-level indicators on and off using the chevron icons at the bottom of the editor window.
With Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 version 16.1, P4VS supports the CodeLens feature. With the relevant CodeLens option enabled (which is the default), you can view the names of users who made changes to classes, functions, and methods throughout the code and get a preview of up to five changelists.
Just open Visual Studio. Go in Tools > Environment > Text editor > Codelens. and then disable them .
You can trigger IntelliSense in any editor window by typing Ctrl+Space or by typing a trigger character (such as the dot character (.)
Code Lens is not included in the VS 2013 Pro SKU. You need to have the Ultimate SKU to get this feature. Others have already asked for this...
Hey, Microsoft: Make CodeLens Available in Visual Studio 2013 Professional
So technically the answer to "how" is pay Microsoft a lot of money and upgrade to Ultimate. This isn't the answer you are looking for but for now it is the answer.
