Go to Declaration

Last modified: 23 September 2024

Use this command to navigate to the declaration of a symbol from any symbol usage. You can invoke this command from the Solution Explorer, Structure window, and other tool windows.

To navigate in the opposite direction (symbol usages) you can use the Go to Usages of Symbol command.

If the item you navigate to belongs to the current solution, JetBrains Rider opens the corresponding file in the editor and places the caret at the symbol declaration. If it is in referenced libraries, JetBrains Rider navigates according to the settings defined on the Tools | External Symbols page of JetBrains Rider settings CtrlAlt0S.
