Feature Improvement: Add custom align strin

[imtrobin]

Hi, there are quite a number of alignments I used that are not on the default toolbar, e.g, ( , () , I constantly have to open the dialog to do custom string. It would be great if it could add custom string to the toolbar.

Hi, The recommended way to do this at the moment would be to go into the settings screen and add shortcuts for the alignments you want.

I'll keep this ticket open if someone wants to make a pull request. But I don't think it'll be something I'll work on myself.

Ok, I'm taking a stab at this. I downloaded and compiled fine, it has the dlls, but how would I package it into a vsix. I have not build extensions before, is there some instructions?

The vsix file should just be created as part of the build. Maybe check out the appveyor.yml file as it contains the commands the build server uses to compile it.

There is an add on visual studio feature for extension development. Back in the day it was critical, but I didn't think it was really needed anymore since the prerequisites are Nuget packages. If you are playing around with extensions it's probably worth installing though - it gives you the shortcut to an experimental visual studio instance for instance.
