The Solution Explorer Contextual List
The lower portion of Solution Explorer shows contents of items selected in the tree view. Most often, it is used to view lists of code resources (methods, functions, variables, and relations) and in addition, media. Users can hover over an item in the contextual list to view additional information, if available. Users can also move code from the list into an open script editor (see the Script Editor chapter for details).
