When I select multiple items in solution explorer and right click, I cannot find the menu item "scope to this" any longer.
Is there any way of limiting the view in the solution explorer tree to two or more separate directories/files?
Visual Studio 2012 and later versions provide the "Scope To This" option. Using this option, we can select any project and then only this project will be visible in Solution Explorer. You can select a particular project or a folder from Solution Explorer.
In solution you can select particular project/folder/file and right click and click on “Scope to this” Menu. It will scope your solution explorer to that particular item. Now once you click on “Scope to this” It will scope your solution explorer to that particular item only.
Solution Explorer is a special window that enables you to manage solutions, projects, and files. It provides a complete view of the files in a project, and it enables you to add or remove files and to organize files into subfolders.
The shortcut Ctrl+; set the focus in the Visual Studio Solution Explorer search textbox and you can start typing your search term(s). If the Solution Explorer panel is not visible this shortcut makes it visible.
No, but you can see New Solution Explorer View
menu item next to Scope to This
menu. So you can create multiple scope in multiple solution explorer view.
