问题
I have a solution in Visual Studio in which I have a shared property sheet which contains a Post-Build Event command (bar) which needs to execute for every project.
Foo.props > Common Properties > Build Events > Post-Build Event > Command Line = bar
How do I then specify additional project-specific Post-Build Events? The usual "Inherit from parent or project defaults" is missing, and I would rather not have to manually add bar to every single project as it makes it hard to maintain.

Based on this post, it doesn't seem possible. You posted your question a while ago; did you manage to find a feasible alternative?
Edited after feedback: A potentially messy alternative would be to define your command as a macro:
<!-- CommandX.props -->
<PropertyGroup>
<CommandX>bar</CommandX>
</PropertyGroup>
Then you could add $(CommandX) to the post-build command of the project or to another property sheet. If $(CommandX) doesn't exist, it is quietly ignored.
If you add this macro to another property sheet, then you'd have to Import your CommandX property sheet so that $(CommandX) inherits a value:
<!-- Some-Other-Property-Sheet.props -->
<ImportGroup Label="PropertySheets">
<Import Project="CommandX.props" />
</ImportGroup>
After learning a bit more about the build process, I'd like to recommend using MSBuild tasks; in particular, the Exec task might offer the most feasible solution.

After finding this solution and looking at the other post. I found it impossible to understand why the VC++ team would leave this feature out.
After looking through the Macros for the property pages you can include the command from the previous properties using the %(Command) macro / environment variable. This works for all build events.
PropertySheet1.props
copy some.dll $(OutputPath)
%(Command)
PropertySheet2.props
copy other.dll $(OutputPath)
%(Command)
Results in all commands being executed.

As some Post-Build Events did non inherit from the property sheet they are defined in, I questioned the duck and landed here.
I have good news: Since Visual Studio 2013, the Pre-Build and Post-Build event command lines have a "Inherit from parent or project defaults" option, which adds all events from the property sheets.
(Tested with Visual Studio 2013 and 2017 Professional)
