How auto-place the ALL_BUILD and ZERO_CHECK and INSTALL projects from CMake into a Visual Studio filter
Raw
CMakeAutoVSFilters.md

For anyone else curious I found the answer.

In the CMakeLists.txt add the following commands:

set_property(GLOBAL PROPERTY USE_FOLDERS ON)
set(PREDEFINED_TARGETS_FOLDER "CustomTargets")

Now the ALL_BUILD, ZERO_CHECK, and even INSTALL projects will all be placed in a Visual Studio Filter called CMakePredefinedTargets

You can assign your name to this folder with:

set_property(GLOBAL PROPERTY PREDEFINED_TARGETS_FOLDER "_CMakePredefinedTargets")
