How ​"your&​quot; Visual Studio 2005 looks like?

Here ya go:



Not much is changed, just added compile/build/run to menu bar for easy access (I only use VC++ for class and don't use debugging unless I need to, so I run without it most of the time).

C# is set up in the stock configuration because I feel no need to change it.

why you guys dock solution explorer on left isnt more comfortable on right?

It's on the right on the school computers here, and I have it on the right in VC#...  I've just never taken the initiative to move it in C++ (because the side it's on doesn't make a difference to me.

Now, it would be a different story if I ever did Winforms development in VC++...  having everything reversed would mess with my head.

I keep mine docked on the right, but a friend of mine keeps his docked on the left.  I asked him why once, and he said that he finds it more comfortable to have the brunt of the code he's working on in the middle of the screen, instead of on the left-hand side. 

It's interesting, I don't use the left dock, all my tabs (Solution explorer,Props, Class view,toolbox etc) are docked to the right.

Does anyone else do this?

I dock the solution exporer and class view on the left because those are the things i use the most often and i find i have to move the mouse less distance to get to them than if they are docked on the right.

Here is a screenshot from my VS2005 environment at work:

Mine looks like the default "General development" settings, so posting a screenshot would not be much use. I only change the font to Consolas and some of the spacing options for the C# text editor (I prefer "if( x )" instead of "if (x)", and the latter is the default setting), but everything else is default.

With Team Foundation, CodeRush, Refactor & the Vista Aero Glass theme for Winblinds.

I doc SS to the right also (i'm right handed). I'v been mulling over getting coderush but I just don't code as much at work as I used to. 

Mine is simply the standard Micorosft Visual Studio C# Express Edition, so I won't post it. When I get my new computer (in about 6 - 8 months I will have 3 monitors and I will use them for a better setup). I'm not sure whether I will have to take a computer qualification in the next few years, if I do, I will probably invest in a full version of Visual Studio, in which case the setup would be much better.

Well my Blog post pretty much says it all for how mine looks like
