Code Map Missing Visual Studio

We just switched over to VS 2013 and I heard that you're supposed to be able to generate code maps for your entire application. Awesome feature indeed, that could get new developers on our project up to speed.

Watched a couple of tutorials, but when I tried to just right click on a method in the application, the 'Show on Code Map' context menu is missing. In fact, I can't find anything in VS that has anything to do with Code Maps.

My version: Visual Studio Premium 2013

I tried installing Modeling SDK for Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, but that didn't do anything.

Anyone got any ideas?

You need Visual Studio ULTIMATE to create Code Maps.

This has changed for Visual Studio 2015 and Visual Studio 2017:

  • The Enterprise Edition allows creating code maps.
  • The Community and Professional Editions can open diagrams generated in other Visual Studio editions in read-only mode.
