Hi!
I`m using Visual C++ 2008 Express and just wondering if there`s some way of "minimizing" all functions in the current document at once-like a key combination or so, because it turned that sometimes I need to close each function manually to get better visibility, which is quite tedious. Talking about those squares with "+/-" in front of them, leaving only the name of the function/class etc.
Thanks.

Re: VC++:"minimizing" all functions in doc at once
The correct term is 'folding'.
I found this (it's for the Visual Studio .NET IDE, but maybe it's the same with other IDE from MS.)
Fold/Unfold the current code block - Ctrl+M, Ctrl+M
Unfold all - Ctrl+M, Ctrl+L
Stop outlining - Ctrl+M, Ctrl+P
Fold all - Ctrl+M, Ctrl+O

Hmm... personally I've never used function folding... It's a nice idea but I don't like hiding things away like that really... Something which I use at work which was advised to me by two other people, one from another company, is RockScroll.. which turns your scroll bar into a thin window showing all the code in the current file. It's so small you can't really see what the code is but if you know the file well then you can find your way around pretty well and it highlights changes that have been made so you can clearly see where you've been making your changes and jump between them in a flash!

Hehe, like me for the first time. It's hard to find something if you don't know how it is called.shadowslair wrote:Looks like I searched for the wrong term.
This tool looks nice! Too bad it's for Visual Studio only.JP wrote:RockScroll
But now i have a mission. To find something similar for Eclipse.
