Last Friday, Scott Hanselman announced the release of the Rockscroll Visual Studio Add-in. Rockscroll replaces Visual Studio’s code-view scrollbar with a miniature visual representation of your source code. This feature makes navigation in large source files that much easier.
Before Rockscroll, I’d oftentimes make mental notes of the scrollbar’s position while traversing code. That, and when spending a lot of time on a project I’d become so familiar with the source code that I’d begin to recognize most code blocks by shape. Rockscroll provides both of these mnemonic devices, but with less brain work. That is a good thing. Thank you, Rocky Downs. Can I have this in NetBeans? :)
