How do I enable line numbers in VS2008?

Question

I can't seem to find that option.

Surely it's in there?

Thanks.

Answer 1

That would be Tools > Options

Text Editor > All Languages > Line Numbers (at the bottom right)

Answer 2

Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> All languages. Near the bottom.

Answer 3

Main Menu > Tools > Options
Text Editor (Tree) > C# > Display group (Line numbers checkbox)

that was easy :)

Answer 4

Go to Tools - Options - Text Editor - All Languages - General, and check Line numbers to show line numbers for all files.

If you just want to see (or not see) the line numbers of a specific file, you can override this global setting by going to the Text Editor - - General page.

Did you know... how to show line numbers in the editor?

Answer 5

Don't forget to check "[x] Show all settings" at the bottom of the form, otherwise you won't be able to see "All Languages".
