Find/Highlight current item in Solution Explorer

Question

When I'm working with an item in a tab (class, xml file, designer, etc.), and I want to go to that item or project in the Solution Explorer, there's no easy way to go directly to that item...I have to hunt down the project, maybe expand a few tree nodes, etc. This solution has ~15 projects, so it can be kind of cumbersome to hunt it down. Is there a context menu, hotkey or add-in that can take me directly to the current item in the SE? Thanks! Gary

Answer 1

A coworker found the following solution... Tools->Customize->(Categories)View->(Commands)Track Activity in Solution Explorer Drag this button onto a toolbar, and when it's active, the solution explorer will follow the current document tab (including expanding and collapsing the project tree nodes as necessary).
