|  Overview/Tasks

A browse window appears in response to queries. For example, if you query on name CWinApp and select Definitions and References, a browse window for the CWinApp class, with all of its definitions and references, is displayed.

By default, a browse window disappears when you move the focus away from the window. You can keep the browse window in view with the pushpin button at the top of the window, as shown in the following figure.

Fixing a browse window on your screen with the pushpin has these two effects:

  • The browse window remains visible even if you move the focus to another window, for instance, to edit a source file.

  • The browse window remains on top of all other windows in the development environment.
