Visual Studio variables/methods outline and dropdown options?

Eclipse has something like this showing you the outlines of method declarations, imports, variables...

Outline

Is there something similar in Visual Studio 2010? I can't seem to find it.

Another thing is the context menu dropdowns.

In Visual Studio, I have to click on the underlined word:

enter image description here

And wait for that little blue underscore to pop up then I have to carefully hover over it like so:

enter image description here

for the drop down menu to pop up. Then I have to click on it to bring up the options.

In Eclipse I can hover over the underlined word and get the options about half a sec later OR hover over it and press F2 immediately to get the options.

Does anyone know if such features are available in VS2010?

For your first question, there is a window called "Class View" that may be similar to what you want. You can access it via CtrlWC.

For your second question, if your cursor is on the identifier that is underlined, you can type either of the following in order to open that same context menu:

  • Ctrl. (that's a period or dot)
  • AltShiftF10
