In VS 2019 menu is triggered by hovering over top toolbars
VS 2019 extended non-client area to top toolbars (you can drag VS window by toolbar area), it used to be only title bar. I'm not sure how to fix this without fiddling too much with windows messages.
Though honestly after VS merged menu and title bar I think this extension will be used mostly by people that want very clean interface and they probably don't have any toolbars enabled anyway. So for now it is considered low priority.
One workaround is just to hide the toolbar, it is the parent of the feedback button:
if (FeedbackPanel == null)
{
var feedbackButton = Application.Current.MainWindow.FindElement("FrameControlContainerBorder");
FeedbackPanel = feedbackButton.Parent as System.Windows.FrameworkElement;
}
for someone who are minimalist and don't use toolbar, it is okay.
When there are no toolbars it already works fine
The compact mode can be disabled in Tools.Options.Environment.Preview Features. But in regular mode, it can't achieve the same perfect effect as its predecessor in vs2017. Also, I find it will cause vs2019 to exit unexpectedly if vs2019 is in welcome page for a while.
I still have a customized toolbar that has some commands I don't want to assign/remember their shortcuts. I use "Alt" to show menu only, never use "Mouse up" way. Setting "Mouse enter delay" to a very big number (in ms) effectively solve this problem. But I would rather you provide another option to stop "Mouse up" feature.
