[Files in Solution]
I should like to use Placeholders (star (*) and question mark (?)) to limit the file list.
Example: "std*.cpp"
At present if I type a star all files are listed, no matter what's comes next. If I type a star later no files are listed.
This is unexpected. Try "*cpp" and "std*" to see what I mean.

[Symbols in Solution]
I should like to use Placeholders (star (*) and question mark (?)) to limit the symbol list.
Example: "*view.*default" to get symbols like:
CBaseView.GetDefault
CBaseView.SetDefault
CTestView.GetDefault
CTestView.SetDefault

No other switches in VA View, but you can use "/" to filter on path in the Open File in Solution dialog. The filtering is described and explained here:

by combining several search terms you can produce some quite powerful searches.

Thank you for the reply. That's exactly what I need!
Obviously the trick with the space and the minus works also for "List Methods in Current File Alt+M"

If there are more switches like the minus? Under the Topic "Documentation of Features" I only see some general stuff.

Are you aware that you can do similar thing with space? So "std .cpp" will do a similar thing like in your example.
You can also use minus to filter out things, e.g. "std -.h"
The same works in find symbol dialog. To get a similar list like in your example, just type "view. default"
