I'm working on a middle-sized project that contains several class libraries, database model and an ASP .NET MVC website project. However, even though there are less than 15 projects in the solution, I often find myself collapsing and expanding endless folders to find a certain class or view.
While looking for class is mostly solved by Resharper type navigation feature, I often want to switch to a certain view in MVC project. I don't remember the file name and it wouldn't solve the problem either because there are many views with same file name (e.g. Message\ViewSingle.cshtml, Product\ViewSingle.cshtml).
What I'd rather want is an ability to “favorite” certain files, projects or folders so they are displayed on a separate Solution Explorer-like window for quick access.
Is there such an extension available (for free)?
Update
@samy pointed out that Sergey Vlasov's Favorite Documents extension allows for quick access via the menubar, I usually tend to hide it and would prefer a dockable window solution so I'm still looking. I wrote Sergey to find out if he plans to work on this functionality.
Update (Aug 4th)
I just received a letter from Sergey in which he points me to Favorite Documents 1.1 got a dedicated window. Therefore I accept samy's answer.
You're in luck, this Favorite Documents extension is just out. I found it via the Morning Brew.
Favorite Documents by Sergey Vlasov
The free Favorite Documents extension lets you create links to frequently used code files and then quickly open them as a group or individually from the Favorites menu in Visual Studio 2010
Update
After being contacted about this thread, Sergey rolled out version 1.1 with several improvements and a dedicated window (as requested in question).
You can use Libraries on Windows Vista or Seven, and organize folders as you wish. Maybe is not complete solution for your problem, but just to mention that :)
