Persisting Language Filters

Fred Chateau - 05 Jan 2004 00:25 GMT
I find I spend an exorbitant amount of time selecting the C# language filter
while browsing help pages in VS.NET 2003.

Is there a way to permanently set the filter so that the default on any help
page is set to a specific language?

On a related subject, whenever I enter terms or phrases in the search pane,
they are missing the next time I open the IDE and attempt a new search. Is
this normal behavior or do I have a setup problem?

In my experience, if you have a project open in Visual Studio, the topic
filter will be set in accordance to the language of your open project.

You do not have a setup problem. Search terms do not persist between IDE
sessions.

I seem to have the same problem that Mr. Chateau encountered, and so
are two fellow programmers I checked with. I have VS 2003.Net, and
Msdn Lib. 04/2003.

I can't tell when exactly I first encountered this persistent filter
issue, but I know for sure that it used to work properly at some
point...I read all the postings above, and tried to repair the
documentation, but still nothing fixed the problem.

Thanks,
Amidan Roth,
