Quick Tip - Visual Studio Tracking Active Item Bug
Something that bugs me at least once a week is Visual Studio spontaneously "forgetting" that you'd like to track the active item (when you change files with cntrl-tab, your solution explorer updates accordingly).
I've always dug into Tools -> Options-> Projects and Solutions to fix this (usually with a small yelp of annoyance). Turns out you can now bind a keyboard command directly to it, without having to write a macro as other have had to resort to. Tools -> Environment -> Keyboard. Look for View.TrackActivityinSolutionExplorer and bind it to something useful, and toggle at will.
