Cranking up the build verbosity in the IDE

We are often asked whether it's possible to crank up the build output verbosity when building inside the IDE....think building from the command line using msbuild /verbosity:Detailed or msbuild /v:Detailed

Sure, it's possible, and we've made it dead simple to do so.  All you need to do is to go into the Tools->Options menu, and go to Projects and Solutions->Build and Run and change the value of the MSBuild project build output verbosity.  You can pick between Quiet, Minimal, Normal, Detailed and Diagnostic.

Enjoy!
