I’m using vs.net 2012, and when I search for a string in the entire solution, in my find results pane, when I click on a file, it opens the file in the bottom pane. It used to open ‘normally’ in the top pane where all my other source files are.
What did I do to get vs.net to mess with my mind? 🙂
You probably docked the
Find Resultsas a content window instead of a tool pane.So now actually have two document panes, one of which contains the
Find Results.When you open a new document (In your example – double-clicking it from the Find Results), it automatically opens in the last focused document pane, which in your case is the one containing the Find Results.
To fix this, re-dock the Find Results in Far-Bottom (or, in the image below the far-right for instance)
