Visual Studio How to add Python module to Intellisense

Visual Studio's Intellisense will recognize custom Python modules after they have been properly placed in the "site-packages" folder under the "Lib" folder in Python's directory.

For example: /Python27/Lib/site-packages/myPython

Inside of the folder "myPython", put a plain text file called "__init__.py". Otherwise Intellisense will not recognize your package.

You may also have to click the "Refresh DB" under the Python Environments tab.
