Visual Studio 2008: How to view “Advanced” properties in the Properties window?

Question

Whenever I click on an object in the Solution Explorer, in the Properties Dialog, all I can see are the "Misc" properties, usually File Name and File Path, but I need to see the "Advanced" section. Under Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> C#, there is a checkbox labeled "Hide advanced members". This was unchecked by default, and I've tried checking + restarting visual studio, unchecking again. Regardless, it's still hidden. I'm not even sure that this relates to Properties, but this was suggested as a solution before. How might I go about fixing this?

EDIT: I'm referring to the properties of files within the project, not the project or solution properties.

Answer 1

This is normally the case for projects and solutions - the properties window only has the file name and path.

Right click on the solution or project node and select Properties. This will bring up the properties pages for them, instead of the properties window (F4).
