Do the selections within tools/options and tools/customize apply to the open
solution or does it apply to all solutions on my machine?

I'm thinking it probably applies only to the open solution but where are the
selections saved.

Even if the selections are global they must be saved some place.

Where are those selections saved??

Thanks in advance
 
So if I want line numbers, for example, in an asp.net solution I also get
them in my windows forms solution.



Interesting!

Solution-specific settings appear to be saved in the .slo file.

I don't know which setting are solution-specific, but by
experimentaion I have found that Debug -> Exceptions is
solution-specific.

You can experiment by changing some settings, close the solution,
delete the .slo file, open it and see if the settings are still there.

Seems like the logical thing to do (saving in .slo I mean)


thanks
 
.slo or .suo??

You are correct, .suo. Those are the user-specific things (.suo is
not added to source control by default, like .vbproj.user for
projects).
