I want to delete a line just like hitting Ctrl + X without anything selected, but without saving the line to the copy stack. Is this possible?
I'm using Visual Studio 2010.

Edit.LineDelete
is the name of the command. By default it's bound to Ctrl + Shift + L, but you can give it whatever you like in Tools | Options | Keyboard.
Edit: Corrected default shortcut info.
Ctrl + Shift + L will delete the line and not copy to the clipboard.
I mapped Ctrl + L (Global) to Edit.LineDelete
. Otherwise, the shortcut key is Ctrl + Shift + L, which is awkward. Go to Tools > Options > Environment > Keyboard
as shown below.
Correction in my answer
Ubuntu 16 & Visual studio Version: 1.30.1
To cut line Shift + del
To delete line Shift + Ctrl + k
Its Cmd + Shift + K on mac by default.
But it can be modified according to user needs from the settings (Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts
) -> search for Delete Line
key value.
All the answers were helpful but didn't seem to work for me.
So I found the solution --> for Visual Studio 2017 (and certainly 2019):
Tools > Options > Environment > Keyboard > on the right pane select Edit.LineEdit.
Below there is a ComboBox Use new shortcut in: with Global written --> Change it to Text Editor.
On the right there is a Text input Press shortcut keys:, so use the shortcut of your choice.
Then click on Assign PushButton on the right (otherwise it won't be applied).
Finally > OK.
You can now open a .CPP file and use your shortcut to remove a line.
On Visual Studio 2019 for Mac, it's CTRL + K to cut the whole line by default.
