Hello,

What takes precedence: Build* "Output > Platform Target = x86" or Above combobox "Platform > Active (Any CPU)"

For now, I let default settings to go by... Although in C# I have already a multi target platform config settings. I will apply the same on X# in the future. some of our .NET apps requires AnyCPU to work, especially the thing that deals with WebAPI.

Rene,
The setting on the Build page takes precedence. This gets translated into the command line for the compiler.
The other 'AnyCpu' platform is more like a 'Name' at solution level that is used to joins different settings for different projects.
You can also rename this to x86 if you want to.
To do that:
- open the platform combo from the toolbar
- choose configuration manager
- in the "active solution platforms" combo choose "edit"
- then select the AnyCpu platform and rename it to for example "x86"
