Dependency view
The dependency view gives an overview of how other objects use the current object and how the current object uses other objects. The view is selected with the View selector buttons and has sections for Usages (incoming references) and Usings (outgoing references)
Hold the Shift key and select one or more columns to sort. Multiple clicks on the same column reverses the order.
If you feel the view is a little cramped, you can open the view in a separate window by right-clicking the Dependencies view selector button or by clicking Ctrl + Shift + D.
