Might just be for Visual Studio  15  if you right-click on source code  there s an option for insert comment  This puts summary tags around your comment section  but it does give the indentation that you want

One way to do it would be     Select the text  Press CTRL   K  C to comment  CTRL E C   Move the cursor to the first line after the delimiter    and before the Code text   Press Alt   Shift and use arrow keys to make selection   Remember to make line selection using down  up arrow keys   not the text selection - See Box Selection and Multi line editing  Once the selection is done  press space bar to enter a single space      Notice the vertical blue line in the below image  that will appear once the selection is made  then you can insert any number of characters in between them     I couldn t find a direct way to do that  The interesting thing is that it is mentioned in the C  Coding Conventions  C  Programming Guide  under Commenting Conventions       Insert one space between the comment delimiter      and the comment   text   But the default implementation of commenting in visual studio doesn t insert any space

Pressing Ctrl K C or Ctrl E C After selecting the lines you want to comment will not give space after slashes  you can use multiline select to provide space as suggested by Habib  Perhaps  you can use    before the lines you want to comment and after    in that case you might not need to provide spaces        First Line to Comment   Second Line to Comment   Third Line to Comment
