All you Active Tabs? To the left… That’s it, keep it to the left… - Keep your Visual Studio Tabs, the most recently used tabs, visible

Now let’s say you click on Class1.vb. It becomes the most-recently used file, so it moves to the left.

From the person who told me about this hack, here’s how he uses it:

Basically I like my tabs to be ordered in MRU (Most Recently Used) order (i.e. the current window is always the left most tab, the previously visited window is second tab, and so forth). In this way the documents I visit most frequently stay in view. One of my common situations is that I open a favorite file first (e.g. an important .idl file for .h file) and constantly return to the file during my editing session. Normally this file keeps moving to the right in the tab channel as I open more files even if I am visiting it constantly. Very soon it falls off to the right out of view, and I am annoyed.”

Nice. I dig the way this feature sounds. Turning it on now…
