ide

When I right-click in my class library, I get some quick options to create things, like an Item from the popup list (New Item...), a User Control, etc. E.g.

alt text

Now in my web app project, I'd like to be able to get the User Control listed in the right-click menu just like Component and Class, so I don't have to click New Item... then choose it from there.

alt text

Is there a way to do this in the configuration? I can't seem to figure it out in VS.
