How to see XML comments from Reflector

I prefer to view assemblies using a reflector, although I have the source code with me specifically in the case when I move to a new project. But I think it would be nice if I could see the XML comments of the source code in the reflector.

Are there any add-ons that will do this?

Thanks in advance

XML comments are not compiled into the assembly - they go into a separate XML file. If this is your assembly or the XML file comes with the assembly that you are trying to parse, then Reflector will automatically select them. If not, you have no options, sorry ...

Edit: In any case, these comments will not be displayed next to your code - you will see them below the disassembly window, formatted in the documentation style.

Edit2: It seems you can display your XML comments, if you want - there is an option in the settings dialog box. I did not know this! :)
