I am a very recent user of Visual Studio Ultimate 2013. In most Ides, there is a structural view of the current file. For example in IntelliJ Idea, one can see the data members and functions in a class file. Or one can see the hierarchical structure of an html file. I could not find such a view in Visual Studio upto now. There is a list of functions above the file editor. But this doesn't work in in cshtml files.
Is there such a structural view in VS? If so how to access it?
You can go to "View/Class View" menu item to get the class view window.
The class view window does not auto-sync. However, you can go to the "Tools/Options" menu item, then go to the "Environment/Keyboard" tree item. Under the "Show Commands Containing", search for "View.SynchronizeClassView". You can then assign this to some key combination which you can use to sync it.
