I downloaded SSMS Tools Pack and the region functionality seems to be a bit quirky. For example, for 2 regions on top of each other, collapsing the top region seems to collapse the bottom region as part of it. Have you noticed this behavior? Also, if I just type:--#region test
-- some sql
--#endregion
Then the region doesn't seem to get automatically "activated" - ie it doesn't collapse and expand. There seem to be other basic quirks as well. Have you found these regions to be buggy as well - a nice thought but not ready for prime time?
Also, do you know if there is any momentum for SSMS to include built-in regions in an upcoming release? Seems like it would be really nice to have considering Visual Studio has had this functionality for over 10 years?
Region handling - code folding - is present in SSMS 2012, but it is awful, sorry to say.
What I would say is that if your code is long enough to warrant code folding, perhaps you should consider making it more modular - very long procedures can become a nightmare for support - just a thought 😛
