Hi. I'm writing a function for a project that has many authors. I thought it would be nice if there was a tool (VS add-in) that would enable me to insert a comment in the form of a flow chart so that I wouldn't have to write a lot of text comments.
Is there such a tool available for VS2005?

I know there are tools that generate flow charts from the code (such as Crystal), but that's not what I want.
I want to insert my planned flow chart so that others could see what I meant to do and not how I implemented, which would help the debug process.

Thank you.

Not directly into the code files, no. They are just plain-text.

Of course I didn't mean to insert the flow chart directly into the code.

I meant for the IDE to keep some kind of reference at the point of my choosing (function header for example) to an image. When I hover or click on the reference point the image is displayed. Or something of that nature.

Thanks.
