Navigate neighboring files and projects

Last modified: 16 May 2024

Use this command to navigate project structure around the current file. In the popup that opens, you can see the project where the current file belongs, folders and files at the same directory level, and you can jump to these files or create a new file or folder.

You can invoke this command from the main menu (ReSharper | Navigate | Go to File Nearby), but it is probably more convenient to pick it from the Navigate To popup Alt0`. Or alternatively, you can assign a custom shortcut to this command ReSharper_GotoFileNearby.

This command is a good alternative to locating the current document in the Solution Explorer ShiftAlt0L. In the popup that this command opens, you can see the immediate neighbors of the current file as well as navigate any items through the solution hierarchy.

If you choose a code file, it opens in the editor; choosing a project file .csproj/.vbproj will locate the corresponding project in the Solution Explorer.

In addition to navigation, you can use this command to create new folders and files from existing templates anywhere in your solution:
