Is it possible to set the guides (right-margin marks) in the visual studio 2012 text editors without any extensions?
Edit: registry key HKCU\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\Text Editor doesn't work. Any working solutions?

technically, yes: set the registry key by hand. Probably not what you wanted. – Kate Gregory Aug 22 '12 at 12:48

ok, can you please share the correct registry key? – Alexander Zwitbaum Aug 22 '12 at 13:00

Now is the Paul Harrington's Editor Guidelines Extension for the Visual Studio 2012 available. So you have an extended context menu, where you can Add, Remove or Change Color of the guidelines.

4I love it! (But why isn't it built in, in Visual Studio? I started searching for this capability after seeing it in IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition and liking it.) – RenniePet Jul 18 '13 at 14:34
