How to "Go to definition" of a function using Visual Assist?

906 Views Asked by At

I am using Visual Assist for last couple of months. Alt+G is very useful and fast in finding definition of anything under cursor.

But I am not able to figure out how to Go to definition by manually putting the function-name or class-name as text input (as we do while searching using Ctrl+Shift+F or Ctrl+,).

What I am doing right now is using Ctrl+Shift+F and trying to look for definition from the long list of string search result. :(

I hope my requirement is clear.

Thanks to the Whole Tomato Software support team, I got the answer upon raising a ticket.

Keyboard shortcut to "Go To Definition" with text input is:

Alt+Shift+S

It is very fast and accurate.

To get an exact or strict match, use .symbolname. as text-input in Find Symbol prompt.

I think you may have been looking for the shortcut VAssistX.GotoImplementation instead. Edit it to a hotkey of your liking in Options -> Environment -> Keyboard -> Search for it and 'Assign' a hotkey after you press it. This is what I was looking for. At any rate I am adding this here in case the internet searchers (/googlers) stumble upon it.
