Visual Studio debugger leaving some clutter

[mps727]

Whenever I step through my code, visual studio will step into things like string, and the new operator. When it does this it also leaves a tab for the file open at the top. Is there a way to configure it to only step into code that is loaded in my project explorer? I've searched but found nothing.

You need to state your problem more clearly :) what do you mean by step into?

[mps727]

When I push the Step Into button. F11. I want it to only step into code that is in the solution explorer, and step over everything else.

[tomtetlaw]

what is stepping?

[mps727]

When you place breakpoints in your code so that you can step through line by line to debug problems.

[tomtetlaw]

oh right, i dont think so, does it close those windows when you stop debugging?

[mps727]

Nope it leaves them all open and then I have to close them manually. It's really annoying.

try going to Tools>>Options>>Debuging there might be something there.

Then you should "step over" instead of "stepping in", so press f10.
Ór you could step out of the code with shift-f11:

Debugging
Debug.Autos 	CTRL + D, A
Debug.CallStack 	CTRL + D, C
Debug.Immediate 	CTRL + D, I
Debug.Locals 	CTRL + D, L
Debug.QuickWatch 	CTRL + D, Q
Debug.Start 	F5
Debug.StartWithoutDebugging 	CTRL + F5
Debug.StepInto 	F11
Debug.StepOut 	SHIFT + F11
Debug.StepOver 	F10
Debug.StopDebugging 	SHIFT + F5
Debug.ToggleBreakpoint 	F9
Debug.Watch 	CTRL + D, W
Debug.EnableBreakpoint 	CTRL + F9
Make Datatip Transparent 	[CTRL]

I know, I was just hoping there would be a one-button solution, because I DO want to step into all of my project's code so I hit f11, but sometimes it will step into code that I don't want it to.
