This is a silly little UI feature that used to be default on previous versions of Visual Studio - navigating to and highlighting the code file that is currently being edited in Visual Studio in the Solution Explorer tree. Well.. Apparently it is not the default in Visual Studio 2008, and every time I install the Studio on a new box, I have to recall exactly what I did to get the task accomplished. So I figured I'd post it
So, in Visual Studio, go to Tools->Options, select 'Projects and Solutions' on the left hand side, select 'Genera' sub-item and make sure 'Track Active Item in Solution Explorer' is checked off.
Hope this helps,
Cheers!
That's been bugging me for like a year. Finally searched for an answer. Doh. Glad you posted the how-to, though :)
Thanks. I can never remember where this feature is.
Its a silly but most usefull info for the people who is working on a project which contains more than 1000 pages.
Thanks for posting.
The silly part is that it is not a defaul anymore.
