Add Extended Properties

Question

Is it possible to add extended properties at SSDT GUI like i can do at SSMS?
I know how to do it at T-SQL window but it is not really comfortable.

Answer 1

Not as far as I know. Would be great if you could.

What would be even better would be if there a way to enforce the names of the extended properties. For example, "every object should have an extended property called 'Description'". That's probably a fat-fetched example but you get the idea. I've seen far too many examples where developers add extended properties on an ad-hoc basis and you end up with a mess of incoherence. If SSDT could provide a way of enforcing/regulating these then that would be great (it would also emphasize the value of a development tool that is separate from SSMS).

Wanna suggest it on Microsoft Connect?
