title: Converting multiple properties and/or classes created from XML into auto properties in Visual Studio
body: <p>Paste special as JSON creates a nice compact class with auto properties. Paste special as XML for the same data creates classes using the normal property approach even though all that is in the property is a get/set. So you end up with a private variable and half a dozen lines for each variables with a default get/set.</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Is there a way to get paste XML to class to create auto properties instead?</li>
  <li>Is there a way (not just for XML created classes) to convert multiple private variables to auto properties because all I can seem to do is one at a time. Without using external tools like ReSharper.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>The time taken to auto convert each field, one at a time, is slower than doing a bit of regex on the code.</p>
  
  <p>I'm on VS2017.
  Thanks.</p>
