Visual Studio Hacks - Documentation - Class Designer Powertoy
"...The Visual Studio 2005 Class Designer and Distributed System Designers PowerToy add-in greatly increases the functionality of both designers. The PowerToy also gives developers a framework for creating custom add-ins to the tool.
Download and install the PowerToy from its workspace on GotDotNet to gain the new functionality. Enhancements provided by the PowerToy are broken into two categories: Design Tools enhancements and Class Designer enhancements.
...
The Design Tool enhancements improve your ability to work on class diagram drawings. You’re able to search diagrams for various attributes/classes, pan and zoom the window, and display a floating properties window. You also get powerful format and layout capabilities such as aligning shapes and changing Z-order layouts.
... The Class Designer enhancements improve how you’re able to view and interact with classes on the designer form. You’re also able to look up MSDN help on system types and export the diagram as a web page, complete with popup graphics detailing comments for all classes and members. ..."
This powertoy sounds pretty cool. A "should/must have" if your a Class Designer user? I like the Export to Web feature. Sounds great for documentation purposes...
Installed.
Plus it comes with the C# source, making it cool++
