every time I open a solution in IVF it expands every single folder in the source files, even if, eg, all but one were closed before last shutdown. This expansion is *rather* inconvenient - is there any way to disable it? many thanks
You can maintain your prior situation in the Solution Explorer in the following way:
Select Options in the Tool menu and then choose Projects and Solutions from the Environment folder. Disable the selection of "Tracking Active Item in Solution Explorer". This selection will be maintained for the next sessions and you will regain the situation in the Solution Explorer that exist when you leave the solution.
thanks Guus, remarkably, VS seems to obey this command for a console/Fortran windows application but not for a static library. Opening a former, all folders keep expanding at every 'open', regardless of last state or the 'tracking active' setting.
My static libraries act as expected in Visual Studio.NET. If the flag 'tracking active' is deactivated, the status of the solution explorer remains unchanged after closing and opening the solution.
