Bugs and Feature Requests: Issue Tracker

This simple extension adds a new "Find In Solution Explorer" item to the context menu of document tabs for documents open in the editor, positioned between the "Copy Full Path" and "Open Containing Folder" commands. This command is especially useful when working with large projects.

Note: This extension duplicates a feature provided by a different extension I released a few years ago to a small number of people. If you already have a "Find In Solution Explorer" menu item on the document tabs, then you probably don't need this one since it does the same thing. :)

Note: This extension is somewhat obsolete because the updated Solution Explorer includes a button on its toolbar for the "Sync with Active Document" command and the default shortcut Ctrl+[, S.
