How can I make intellisense work in Razor for classes where the namespace is imported in web.config?

I've added the following to the Web.config in my ~/Views folder:

<add namespace="DTuppeny.Blog.Models" />

This means at the top of my view, I can now type:

@model Post

instead of

@model DTuppeny.Blog.Models.Post

This all compiles and works fine, however when I type "@Model." I don't get any intellisense.

Is this a bug, or have I done something wrong?

I just tried what you describe in a project of mine, and as long as I kept the .cshtml file open, the intellisense indeed didn't work.

It did work though after I closed and re-opened the file (I also recompiled in between... not sure if that is necessary). Did you do that?

Also: Do you have the latest tools update installed?

Also, make sure you modify the top level web.config, there is another web.config in the views folder
