Alt-G is my most used VA command, but for a while now, the result window is not constant, so going through several symbols, it opens each file in the same window. I used to be able to go back with Ctrl-Tab but I can't anymore an it drives me bonkers.

I have searched all VA and VS options but can't find how to keep them persistent as it has been working for me for years. Is it a new feature that can be turned off? Or should I revert to a previous version?

I am using VS 2013 Pro and VA_X.dll file version 10.9.2086.0 built 2015.12.16

Thanks for any help

Hello ericgen,

It sounds like you would like for files to stop opening in the 'preview' window so that they will stay open?

If so, navigate to the ( Tools | Options... | Tabs and Windows ) menu, then un-tick 'Allow new files to be opened in the preview tab'.

Please tell me if that helps your issue.

Actually, you can even set Visual Assist to override the preview window settings in the IDE.

This is really useful for those who like to customize when the file preview tab is used.

The setting in the Visual Assist options menu is described here:
