I use Microsoft Visual Studio Ultimate 2013 and it looks like this button is working in one project (WPF app.) and not working in other project (server app.) within the same solution. Which VS setting did I possibly have broken?
If you are ever working on a code file and want to find it in the Solution Explorer, you can use 'Sync with Active Document'. This is especially useful if you have many files in your solution and/or have many subfolders.
1) Automatically Track active Item in Solution Explorer This sync can be done automatically. For that you just need to check: Visual Studio > top menus > Tools > Options… > Projects and Solutions > General > Track Active Item in Solution Explorer.
"Sync with Active Document" stopped working for me in VS 2015, both the button on top of Solution Explorer, as well as the Shortcut (Ctl + [, S).
I fixed this by first turning on the automatic sync, and then turning if back off. (This is done in Tools | Options | Projects and Solutions | General, with "Track Active Item in Solution Explorer")
Enable at:
Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > General > Track Active Item in Solution Explorer
Works with VS 2017.
