Class Completion: Finish incomplete properties

If you write a property declaration, completes the remainder of the declaration for reading and writing that property. If unchecked, class completion applies only to methods. (Not applicable for C++ development.)

Explorer categories

Controls how source elements are categorized in the Structure view or Project Manager. If a category is checked, elements of that type are grouped under a single node in the tree diagram.If a category is unchecked, each element in that category is displayed independently on the trunk of the diagram. The folders in bold take precedence when a conflict exists and an element can appear in two folders. For example, a private field would be listed in the private folder if both Private and Field were checked.If a folder is checked, the glyph to the right of the check box shows whether the folder is expanded. Click there to expand or close a folder in the Structure view. The change goes into effect when you click OK.
