SSMS - Can I create a default layout?

Using SSMS 11 to connect to a SQL Server 2012 instance. 1. When I first load up SSMS and log-in, is it possible to have specific nodes in the object explorer expand? I always expand the tables node in a few of the databases that I am constantly accessing, along with the SQL Agent Jobs node. 2. Whenever I add a new table via T-SQL, I refresh the cache with CTRL+SHIFT+R, but I also want to refresh the object explorer tables node without having to use my mouse to right click on "Tables" and hit refresh. In the object explorer, is there a shortcut key to refresh the node you're currently working in? These sound like minor things, but they'd dramatically improve workflow since I encounter them regularly every day.
