I use the DeveloperExpress Refactor tool frequently when working in Visual Studio 2005. I suspect a lot of other developers use it too, especially since it is available for free - for Visual Basic programmers.
There is a consistent bug in Refactor that hasn't been fixed yet. It's more of a petty annoyance than a serious bug but I found a fix for it anyway.
The problem
When adding a class, user control or other item to a project the Add New Item dialog opens in the wrong folder. The dialog should open in the Visual Basic folder. Instead it opens in the Visual Basic/Local Project Items folder
Steps to fix.
- Close Visual Studio 2005
- Delete the "Local Project Items" folder that is under VBProjectItems in your install directory (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VB\VBProjectItems by default).
