A very valuable tool is the ability to quickly grab json and create a class. Paste Special in previous versions of VS was a great feature, but I can't locate it in Visual Studio 2019.
According to this forum thread, you just need to add the ASP web development tools. I've installed everything, paste special nowhere to be found.
How/where do I go to enable this or what is the new alternative provided in Visual Studio 2019?
I've combed through all the options & individual components in Visual Studio Installer, and I've enabled just about everything where this might live. But it's still not showing up in menu.
Developer Community After additional searching around, the "Paste Special" option is only visible once additional components are installed (For some reason). If anyone else comes across this, go back to the Visual Studio Installer -> Tick "ASP.NET and web development", and install that.
I met the same problems in here too with 2019 visual studio and found out how to fix it.
Go to Visual Studio Installer > Modify > Individual Components > Web development Tools
It should be under the Edit menu:
If you've installed the ASP.NET tools and still don't see this, send feedback so the product team can investigate why.
If you don't do it often, just use an online JSON to class converter
