Go to Usages of Symbol
ReSharper | Navigate | Show Usages
ShiftAltF12 (ReSharper_ShowUsages
)
This command allows you to quickly navigate to a specific usage of a symbol from its declaration or any other usage. You can invoke this command from the Solution Explorer, File Structure window, and other tool windows. The opposite navigation is available with the Go to Declaration command.
The list of usages that you get with this command is the same as that of Find Usages. But this command is more convenient for symbols with a limited number of usages, in cases when you are looking for a specific usage and want to get to this usage without opening the Find Results window.
tip
If you invoke this command and see that usage search takes too long, you can click Show in Find Results
, press Shift+Enter or + on the numeric keypad — the search will continue on the background in the Find Results window.
You can configure ReSharper behavior for the cases when a single usage is discovered. By default, the usage is displayed in a popup. If you want ReSharper to jump tho the single usage in these cases, select the corresponding option (Go to Usage: if there is only one result, navigate without displaying the list) on the Environment | Search & Navigation | General page of ReSharper options Alt+R, O.
tip
You can invoke Go to Declaration even if your caret is on a declaration to navigate through symbol usages.
Place the caret at a symbol in the editor or select the symbol in a tool window.
Press ShiftAltF12 or choose ReSharper | Navigate | Show Usages from the main menu. Alternatively, you can press CtrlShift0A, start typing the command name in the popup, and then choose it there.
If there are multiple usages, they appear in a popup with their contexts. 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
.
You can also list and study symbol usages in the Peek Definition view.
To do so, by default you can Ctrl-click the declaration or any usage with the middle mouse button. If you want to disable this, clear the Use Ctrl+Middle Button Click Peek Usages checkbox on the Environment | Search & Navigation page of ReSharper options Alt+R, O. Or you can always invoke this command from the main menu: ReSharper | Navigate | Peek | Peek Usages.
Search the desired symbol using one of the following commands:
Search Everywhere/Go to Type Ctrl0T
Go to Symbol AltShift0T
