Find (search for) table in DBML designer quickly?
We have a design with 150+ tables and in the .dbml layout has lines everywhere and it's hard to find individual tables.
Is there a way to search in the dbml layout instead of scrolling around trying to locate a table (Ctrl+F don't work), Running Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate?
One thing you can do is go to the Properties
window (while you have your DBML file open), and select the class generated for the table you're interested in from the dropdown list at the top of the Properties
window.
Doing so should focus the DBML file visual designer on that table corresponding to that class. Doesn't work always, but it's quite helpful when it does work!
