The next tool area window thing we want to look at is favorites,
0:03
and that hides over here by default, I think.
0:06
And this actually brings together three things that you might want to track.
0:11
First of all, if you go to any of the files like say this core compute
0:16
maybe we really want to keep access to that,
0:19
so we could right click on it,
0:21
we actually go over here, can we do it here— yes, add to favorites,
0:24
and you could make either a new list like data access in my thing
0:27
will just search your whole project, I'll throw it there.
0:29
and now we have access to that,
0:31
so let's suppose were over here, we care a lot about this testing
0:36
so maybe we want to add that to our favorites and so on.
0:39
So if you've got some big project, it's all collapsed right
0:43
you can jump back and forth between these various places.
0:46
The other thing that you might want to do
0:48
is you might want to add some bookmarks,
0:50
so over here, we got a bookmark and we can create a little bookmark
0:55
right at that location, so these are the two tests
0:59
let's say we want to bookmark the two tests
1:01
that are sort of the negative case, checking for errors
1:06
and then over here, we've got out two little bits, right
1:09
we can just jump back and forth between those;
1:12
and finally, if we have any break points,
1:14
we're over here, we set a break point here, set a break point there,
1:17
maybe another break point there, we can get to those as well,
1:21
and notice this last one over here is a conditional one
1:24
whereas these ones are normal.
1:26
We could even edit it by right clicking,
1:29
go and change all of its info, if you really wanted,
1:32
it's very nice, the ability to sort of save stuff and navigate around here.
1:38
Honestly I don't use it that much, maybe I should,
1:40
actually I kind of like the bookmarks especially, quite a bit.
