#if conditionals doesn't highlight code properly

[mcNets]

Parts of my code should only execute on Windows, for which I use the HAS_UNO conditional. However, in Visual Studio, the code appears to be disabled, even though it actually runs.

Visual Studio should enable or disable the code depending on whether it is for Windows or another platform.

Hey @mcNets,

This actually depends on the platform you have selected at the top of the editor and it is not related to the currently targeted platform. Try switching between platforms there to see if it works:

Hi @morning4coffe-dev

Shouldn't WinAppSDK Unpackaged highlight the code inside #if !HAS_UNO? That in fact is executed.

I don’t think so, as that’s not how VS handles this—it only highlights when you change the editor platform:

Should the editor platform change when you change the target platform? Maybe, but I don't think that’s currently supported by our SingleProject implementation in VS. 🤔
