10x Release (1.0.320)

Fixes for the new multi-window feature. Added support for __has_include. Added support for filtered solution files (slnf)

You can choose whether you want the projects loaded in 10x by right clicking on the sln in the workspace tree. "Load all projects" or "Load only filtered projects". They will stay unloaded in VS.

New 10x Build Release (1.0.320)

Added support for filtered solution files (.slnf). Good for very large solutions where you can specify just the projects you want loaded. Useful if you're using VS as a debugger.

With the new multi-window feature, if you want to create a new window with columns you need to use Window Menu -> New Window.

Just dragging a window out won't create columns so you won't be able to move files between them.

I love that 10x users notice a 16ms reduction in input lag

True performance connoisseurs!

10x now has multi-window support! (1.0.312)

Drag windows out of the main window or Window Menu -> New Window.

You can now use 10x across multiple monitors.

Nice! Using Visual Studio and moving from Snowdrop to Unreal made me have a nervous breakdown a few years ago, but thankfully 10x was just around the corner and made my job fun again. I now use 10x every day and I cannot recommend it enough if you work on huge code bases!

I was interviewed on the Wookash Podcast. I talk about my career, programming, and how I created 10x. Enjoy!

I appreciate it very much. 10x has been my daily driver for about a year now and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

02.04.2025 12:29 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

But more importantly, 10x is used by professionals on huge codebases with many millions of lines of code. Here, performance is critical and it's where many other editors fall down. This is why 10x was created.

People sometimes wonder why I keep optimising 10x Editor when it's already so fast.

One reason, profiling and optimising are my favorite things to do. I care about each ms.

No, it's not capped. It will refresh at whatever your monitor rate is.

I've improved the change-log page on the 10x website.

It now shows the changes for each release build broken down by category, so you can easily see if you want to update.

10x will never force an update on you.

Video doesn't do it justice. Download 10x and check it out on a 144hz monitor for maximum smoothness.

I never liked smooth scroll in other editors.

But seeing it at a rock solid frame rate in 10x does look good!

In today's episode of "What am exactly I waiting for here?" I waited for Visual Studio to open 477 projects in a Unity Engine generated solution. It took > 15min. Did I attach a profiler? Why of course I did, because I ran out of patience and Superluminal is my only friend.

It seems to engage a different part of my mind and becomes a fun programming problem.

I find it really difficult testing my own software. Pretending to be a user and trying to find all the edge cases to break it. I instinctively don't want to do this.

But I've noticed when I write automated test cases in python scripts I have no problem thinking of all the horrible edges cases.
