Deploy with multiple projects problem

I have a Visual Studio solution with two projects within it. When I go to Deploy it doesn't matter which project is the startup project or which project is selected in the pull-down or pop-up menu. The project that gets deployed is the one that is associated with the currently open .INO file. If the .INO file for both projects are open then it depends on which .INO currently has focus. Weird.

There are a number of menus within Visual Studio from where you can deploy. For example I can right-click on the project and choose deploy. I would normally expect the chosen project to deploy. I can click on the "Build" menu and choose  "Deploy Solution" which normally acts on the current startup project. I can even choose "Build & Upload" from the vMicro extension menu.

Thanks. There are a couple of options to control these commands. For non VS users the concept of a startup project is alien but for VS users it is expected.

VS can also be confusing because what it considers is the active project is actually the one selected in the solution explorer. The state of the "sync code and solution explorer" icon causes more confusion.

see if this helps...

Switch off:- 

vMicro>General>Active Code Has Priority Over Solution
vMicro>General>Visual Studio Start Commands Use Active Code Instead of Startup Project
