Visual Studio 2022 not generating code from comment with GitHub Copilot

I have installed GitHub Copilot from Visual Studio extensions

It works fine for autocompletes

But when I add a commented line asking for some implementation and press enter, there is no code suggested. Is there a way to "activate" this feature?

I'm using .NET 8.0 and the version of my VisualStudio is 17.8.2

Solution

  • Try telling it what to do without the "Create code do" bit. That much is implied. I have also noticed that copilot prefers to leave a line after the comment before giving code completions.
