Description Litrik De Roy CLA 2006-11-13 08:09:25 EST 
When you open a project the dialog "Should referenced projects also be opened?" pops up. Unfortunately the question only applies to explicitly referenced projects (listed under "Properties > Project References").

It would be nice if implicit references would also be taken into account.

Examples:

- Opening a feature project also opens any plug-in projects it uses
- Opening an update site project also opens any feature projects it uses
- and so on....

If somebody could give a hint of how/where to start looking, I might give it a shot... (just for the fun of it because I'm certainly no programming expert)

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
