| I don't understand what you mean. What is "navigate pages"? Where are you finding this command and how are you triggering it? |

I don't know of any way to do that. If you are using VS2003 or above then you might find using a combination of VA's navigation commands (Alt+Left Arrow, Alt+Right Arrow) and the IDE's navigation commands (Ctrl+-, Ctrl+Shift+-) helps.
In my experience they tend to remember slightly different things, so the two together should give you more "records" to move through. |

I am not sure off hand, I would have to hunt up the answer. Are you really trying to navigate backwards 20 steps?
That seems like a *lot* of navigation, and it seems that you could be doing this movement more quickly and easily via a different method, perhaps an IDE bookmark? |

Dear Feline,
The reason is I was asked for continue a big project.
There are many source code needed to be trace to understand whole architecture.
So I used "Find reference" and "Navigate" to do it. |

This makes sense. I am just wondering if navigate backwards is the best method of getting back to where you started. Instead of navigating lots of times would it not be easier and quicker to jump directly to where you want to go?
Have you considered IDE bookmarks?
Another option that might help is showing VA View and turning on "Include modified methods" - right click in the top half of VA View to turn this on. |

Dear Feline,
Yes, that is why I need to change navigate limitation.
The bookmark isn't a efficient tool.
Because I traced the source code with a lot of different file.
I will try your suggestion way, but I just trace without any modification.

Are you trying to return to a "random" position, or are you trying to return to the last place you made a file edit?
There is a slightly related discussion going on in this thread: http://forum.wholetomato.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6991 |

I am trying to return to the last place which is one of "Find reference" results.
It could be a "random" position. |

I have put in a feature request to increase the number of places that VA remembers:
case=10390
For now have you considered setting a breakpoint? You can then ask the IDE to list all breakpoints, and jump to the one you have just set, to help you return to where you started from. |

Dear Feline,
It is good idea.
But my case is included several projects in one solutions.
EVC doesn't support list all breakpoints in different projects. |

You might find this idea useful:
http://docs.wholetomato.com?W189
but it will require adding marker lines to your files.
Using Embedded Visual C++ 4 here I have a workspace that contains two projects. Both the breakpoint dialog and the named bookmark dialog - under the IDE's edit menu, are listing files in both projects at the same time.
I am not sure why this is working for me but not for you. |
