Enabling "Toast Notifications" for Windows 8 Store App

Question

I'd like to enable Toast Notifications for a Windows 8 Store Application i am building.

The documentation says: "Simply set the Toast Capable option to "Yes" in the Notifications section of the Application UI tab."

(Taken from How to opt in for toast notifications)

Unfortunately, the Visual Studio manifest editor doesn't seem to have this option.

Am i missing anything?

*I know this can be done by editing the manifest file, but i am just wondering why it is missing from Visual Studio

Answer 1

It is accessible from the Visual Studio manifest editor. Make sure that you are on the "Application UI" tab. Then at the bottom, select "All Image Assets" in the left-hand sidebar, and under a "Notifications" section, the first option is "Toast capable".
