sorry about that, your reply about sorting got overlooked *oops*
i do my best to keep up with everything that happens on the forum, but occasionally things escape my notice. i will give this some thought and see what i can come up with. we try very hard to avoid adding options, which sometimes complicates things. |

Thank you, feline. I understand that you try to avoid options. However, this feature doesn't need to be in the general options. I think a new check box (e.g., called 'Sort by name') next to the 'Highlight all' check box would de the trick. But that's just an idea...
Regards,
Marcus. |

Case 1427 reappeared for me in build 1533. I.e., after some time double-clicking items in the reference results window will not lead to an jump to the corresponding source code line any more. However, the workaround to close and reopen the find window works for me.
VC6, Win XP, no further add-ins.

Marcus. |

is your find references result window pinned open or floating?
i have never seen this happen, and i use find references a lot, but i have the results window set to autohide.
when you close the results window are you just using the VA toolbar button to bring it back, or are you re-running the find?
does time, simply leaving it a while, or using the window a lot seem to be the trigger for it stopping working? |

It's floating and not in docked view. Last time it happend to me, the results window was open all the time. I think this was the scenario in most of the cases when the window stopped working for me. As I said, I closed and reopened it to make it work again with build 1533. However, in former builds (e.g., 1524) I had to re-run the find to make it work again. So it is easier to recover from the problem with the current build, but the problem is still there.

Marcus. |

after a bit of experimentation i can reproduce this without waiting.
if i double click in find reference results to jump to something, and then double click on a different result in find reference results then nothing happens.
however if i left click into Find Reference results first, avoiding any of the code lines, and then double click on one of the results then it jumps just fine.
this does not happen if find reference results (and the output window) are docked. can you try this, and see if how you change focus between the floating windows matters?

I just did a lot of clickings, but I can't reproduce what you describe. However, I found out what causes the result window to freeze in my case: If I double click on a reference and then close the window that pops to the front, i.e., that contains the reference, then the result window stops working.

| i see the same effect, which seems to be caused by how focus is returned to the find references result window, at least for me. |

All right. Anyway, have you already had some time for giving the sorting idea some thoughts (see your first post on this page)?

unfortunately not *sigh* it has been just a little manic for me the last few months, but this is still on my list of things to think about.
looking at the results window, and thinking about this, a check box does seem to be the best solution. adding some form of clickable column header is not really ideal. i have put in a feature request for this

Regarding case 2365, is there any change that it gets fixed in one of the next builds? I normally close windows when I'm done with them. Then the result window always stops working, also still in build 1538. That's quite annoying...

Marcus. |

| I have bumped the priority on this case, hopefully this will help a bit. Unfortunately I have no estimate on when this will be done though. |
