Go to Base Symbols

Navigate to a base symbol

1. Place the caret at a symbol in the editor or select the symbol in a tool window.

2. Press Alt+Home or choose ReSharper | Navigate | Base Symbols from the main menu. Alternatively, you can press Ctrl+Shift+A, start typing the command name in the popup, and then choose it there.

3. If the symbol has only one base symbol, ReSharper will navigate to it directly.

   If necessary, you can change the default behavior so that even the single symbol is displayed in the list. To do so, clear the Go to Base/Inheritor if there is only one... checkbox on the Environment | Search & Navigation page of ReSharper options (Alt+R, O).

4. If the symbol has more than one base symbol, they will be listed in a drop-down. The list may contain items in both bold and regular font. Bold indicates that an item has direct inheritance, while the regular font is used for indirect inheritance.

   You can do one of the following:

   • Click the desired item to open it in the editor.

   • Select the desired item by pressing Up and Down and then press Enter to open it in the editor.

   • Start typing to filter results. Note that you can use CamelHumps here. If necessary, press Esc once to clear the filtering.

   • To view and analyze the list of matched items in the Find Results window, click Show in Find Results , press Shift+Enter or + on the numeric keypad.

   • To show the matched items on the type dependency diagram, press Alt+Num+ or click Show on Diagram .
