Thank you very much.

If I can make one comment on what you said:

Often, after I have located the variable in the outline view, I want to click on the "where" used references to jump to the code. I'm not sure how a flyover would work for this.

Hi Sam,

I have opened enhancement request 8938 to track the request for a toolbar
button to collapse the outline view. This sounds like a very simple thing,
so it should be low-hanging fruit for us.

I have also opened enhancment request 8939 to track the request to make it
easier to find the definition of a variable. I have pointed to this thread
and mentioned some of your suggestions such as find in outline view, or
enhanced context assist.
I am proposing a flyover that would appear when the mouse hovers over a
variable. The flyover would show not only the definition of the variable
but also where it came from.
Of course, getting around to implement this will be subject to available
resource.

I hope this helps,
