The Project Navigator has several different views that are used to organize the contents of your project. They are especially useful for localization engineers that are working with Microsoft .NET or very large projects.

Default View

 

This is the classic view of a project. It is a hierarchical listing of your project in the order in which you inserted your original files.

File View

 

This displays the contents of your projects sorted by original filename. This flattens the display of the project and no folder structure is displayed in the Project Navigator.

Resource Type View

 

This displays the contents of your project grouped by resource type. This means that all dialogs are displayed together, all menus, all string tables, irregardless of the file that the originally came from.

.NET Inheritance View

 

This is an advance view for a project and is only relevant to Microsoft .NET application binaries. In this view the inheritance relationships between winforms and controls are displayed hierarchically. This makes working with visual inheritance a relatively simple task.
