I personally don't mind the menu caps, but I do find the way they are forcing their design choices on everyone somewhat antagonistic, and generally not smart.

The same issue happened with their forced grey or white color schemes. It's not hard to give users the option to switch things like this to suit their preference. Yet MS has deliberately not provided any way to adjust these settings, and this gives users something to rant about, and rightly so. Really not a smart move in my view.
- jlewicki 13y agoYou can indeed edit the color scheme. http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/366ad100-0003-4c9a-81a8-337d4e7ace05 http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/366ad100-0003-...
- profquail 13y agoI use this extension -- it comes with a Blue theme which provides a color scheme that's reasonably close to VS2010 (for those that prefer it).
- OrsenPike 13y agoFYI the blue theme is included as part of Update 2 for VS2012. It looks much nicer than the light and dark themes that 2012 has by default.
- GravityWell 13y agoYou can edit the scheme after hunting down and installing an extension which was not available at the initial release. The same could be said for the start menu on Win8. MS could have easily quieted the many loud voices by including options so the user can choose their own preferences.
