Advanced Resource Tab

Advanced Resource Tab is an extension for Blend for Visual Studio that was designed to help its users get more control over the default resource tab by implementing an additional tab window.

It can be implemented only in the 2012 and 2013 versions of Blend for Visual Studio in order to enhance its capabilities.

With Advanced Resource Tab, you will get an enhanced version of the Blend for Visual Studio 2012 resource tab with a proper order of all your project resources. By default, the resource tab of Blend for Visual Studio provides users with resource dictionaries that aren't in any useful order.

Having a lot of resources in the solution can be both nerve-wracking and time-consuming since they force the end user to spend time looking for the necessary resource.

Advanced Resource Tab can help users sort their resource dictionaries in the resource tab, while also providing buttons to expand or collapse items, a quick search function and a filter for resources. It can be used to include subresources in the search results and after filtering them, and offers users a shortcut to the search field, thus enhancing the default resource tab window and making it more accessible for Blend users.
