VSTemplate with build action

How do you create a VSTemplate so that it automatically sets the build action as "content" not the default which is "none"?

According to this post, instead of specifying SubType, you should specify the ItemType attribute to 'Content'.

<ProjectItem ItemType="Content" ... > ... </ProjectItem>

I tried it and it works! (and yes, it's not very intuitive)

it doesn't look like this can be done from the .vstemplate file, however it looks like you can user .pkgdef file to accomplish what you want.

Have you tried setting the SubType attribute of the ProjectItem to Content?
