Collapse all nodes of the Solution panel, very useful especially for big projects:
Public Module CollapseAllNodes
Sub RunCollapseAllNodes()
Dim UIHSolutionExplorer As UIHierarchy
UIHSolutionExplorer = DTE.Windows.Item(Constants.vsext_wk_SProjectWindow).Object()
' Check if there is any open solution
If (UIHSolutionExplorer.UIHierarchyItems.Count = 0) Then
Return
End If
' Get the top node (the name of the solution)
Dim UIHSolutionRootNode As UIHierarchyItem
UIHSolutionRootNode = UIHSolutionExplorer.UIHierarchyItems.Item(1)
CloseRecursif(UIHSolutionRootNode)
' Select the solution node, or else when you click
' on the solution windows scrollbar, it will synchronize the open document
' with the tree and pop out the corresponding node which is probably not
' what you want.
UIHSolutionRootNode.Select(vsUISelectionType.vsUISelectionTypeSelect)
End Sub
Function CloseRecursif(ByRef element)
For Each UIHChild In element.UIHierarchyItems()
CloseRecursif(UIHChild)
If (UIHChild.UIHierarchyItems.Expanded = True) Then
UIHChild.UIHierarchyItems.Expanded = False
End If
Next
End Function
End Module
