Navigate file by its structure

Last modified: 23 May 2024

With JetBrains Rider, you can navigate the structure of the current document using the Structure window, which greatly simplifies navigation in large files. The window is synchronized with the editor: as you switch to another editor tab, the window displays the structure of the corresponding file.

JetBrains Rider: Structure window

You can see the VCS status colors in the Structure tool window and the File Members popup if your project is under version control. It helps you track changes in files. The names of modified objects become blue, and the names of the newly added objects appear highlighted in green.

Right from the Structure window, you can access even more actions. To check available commands, you can right-click any symbol.
