[by:Dmitriy Vasyura | Class Desiger Team]

We’ve
published a set of set of add-ins which augments existing functionality in the
Visual Studio 2005 Class Designer and the Distributed Systems Designers. The
Design Tools Enhancements add-in provides a common set of features that can be
used by both the Class Designer and the Distributed System
Designers, such as pan/zoom window and rich formatting commands.
The Class Designer Enhancements add-in provides additional functionality for the
Visual Studio 2005 Class Designer, such as HTML export and nested type creation
commands. This download includes all necessary source code and a Visual Studio
project template for creating your own add-ins for the Visual Studio 2005
designers.

The
installer and source code are available for download from gotdotnet workspace. The
installation requires the Beta2 version of Visual Studio 2005 installed on the
machine. You can use the Class Designer MSDN forum or
discussion boards in the workspace to post any
questions/feedback on the add-ins.

Here is
a list of features provided by the add-ins (you can find more detailed
