I am sure there is some case for nested classes, but I can't think of any and I don't do it. Structures yes, and if I could think of a good reason to nest a class I suppose I would consider it. Probably won't happen. Large array initializations? I don't have any thoughts about. Sounds like stub data to me.

>>Yes, C sharp has partial class files but I do not use them for general classes. I do not like looking in partial classes to find the code, I like it organized in a single code file for a class. However, I also keep my code limited in a class to what the class should be responsible for and refactor out any base code, etc. I do not have classes that contain thousands of lines of code. I use regions only to collapse specific areas like Viv mentioned that allows me to scroll much easier when needed or to just view some methods or ??.

Using ReSharper helps navigate code but sometimes for instance if I have many properties in a class, collapsing the region around the properties makes the file more manageable to wonder through. I don't view it as hiding code, but rather just part of organizing.
