+7  Q: 

Is there a way to maximise the current tab in Visual Studio?

I sometimes need to use Visual Studio when I have limited screen real estate (remote desktopping from a laptop for example). It would be really useful to be able to make the currently selected code tab maximise to take the whole screen for a limited time.

Is that possible? Is there a keyboard shortcut?

+15  A: 

View->Full Screen (Shift + Alt + Enter)

Does that work?

I can't believe people are not familiar with this, but every time I work with other devs, they are amazed by it or, more amazing, hate it. Show me the code!
