If you have ever read my blog you know I love IDE tips that make me more productive. I learned a cool new productivity tip for Visual Studio 2005 today. This is just another great benefit to paired programming. Thanks for the tip Eugene.
Tip of the day: If you have a file open in VS 2005 you can quickly close it by simply clicking on it with the wheel of your mouse. That's right a wheel click. Just put your mouse over the tab of the file you want to close and click the wheel on your mouse.
You will also notice some new menu items on the context menu if you right click on the file tab. Check these out.
- Close All But This - Close all open files but this one.
- Copy Full Path - Copies the location path of this file to the clipboard.
- Open Containing Folder - Opens file explorer to the folder containing this file.
