VS2005: Custom code and designer views


VS2005: Custom code and designer views Jaret Brower

visual studio .net ide:
Is there a way to have custom views that are different in Desinger and Code
view?

For example, I want the Toolbox and Properties tacked in design view with
Soultion Explorer Hidden, but when I change to code view I want Toolbox and
Properties Hidden, but Solution Explorer tacked.

Hi Jaret,

[quoted text, click to view]

AFAIK there is no such custom views which could be applied to different
scenarios of the VS2003 IDE, I am afraid you need to open and close these
specific tool windows manually when you switch the editor session between
the code view and designer views.

However I suggest you can automate those simple and repeated open/close
window operations via Macro command--I mean record these operations as 2
macro subs(Tools/Macros/Record TemporaryMacro), and give them meaningful
names. Then you can assign a short-cut key to each macro
command/sub(Tools/Options/Environment/Keyboard) and execute it immediately
by pressing the corresponding short-cut key.


Thanks for your understanding!

Best regards,

Gary Chang
