The next tool area window thing we want to look at is favorites, and that hides over here by default, I think.
0:07
And this actually brings together three things that you might want to track. First of all, if you go to any of the files like say this core compute
0:17
maybe we really want to keep access to that, so we could right click on it, we actually go over here, can we do it here— yes, add to favorites,
0:25
and you could make either a new list like data access in my thing will just search your whole project, I'll throw it there.
0:30
and now we have access to that, so let's suppose were over here, we care a lot about this testing
0:37
so maybe we want to add that to our favorites and so on. So if you've got some big project, it's all collapsed right
0:44
you can jump back and forth between these various places. The other thing that you might want to do is you might want to add some bookmarks,
0:51
so over here, we got a bookmark and we can create a little bookmark right at that location, so these are the two tests
1:00
let's say we want to bookmark the two tests that are sort of the negative case, checking for errors
1:07
and then over here, we've got out two little bits, right we can just jump back and forth between those; and finally, if we have any break points,
1:15
we're over here, we set a break point here, set a break point there, maybe another break point there, we can get to those as well,
1:22
and notice this last one over here is a conditional one whereas these ones are normal. We could even edit it by right clicking,
1:30
go and change all of its info, if you really wanted, it's very nice, the ability to sort of save stuff and navigate around here.
1:39
Honestly I don't use it that much, maybe I should, actually I kind of like the bookmarks especially, quite a bit.
