Besides Solution Explorer and Property Grid on my right hand side of my VS IDE, I always have the Class View opened. As I was learning C# using Troelsen’s book, I’ve read his example on how to create classes and class members using the Class View and Wizards. Since I hate wizards especially in programming, I have disregarded the said tool until I discovered its real purpose.
When your code sheet becomes crowded with lots of regions, comments and xml documentation, you wanted to easily switch between individual class member declarations and sometimes, scrolling down the Members dropdown of VS is not practical. I make use of the Class View to have a snapshot view of the classes especially with the groupings it has (methods, properties, fields, etc.). You just double click the member icon and VS will automatically bring you to its declaration on the code sheet, voila
