iOS - Shortcut for jumping to definition in Xcode 9?

In previous Xcode version , I could jump to definition with simple Cmd + click on that method/variable . But in Xcode 9, I feel uncomfortable to jump to definition .

Does anyone has a better solution for jumping to definition in Xcode 9 ?

I am tired of selecting options from dropdown list.

Deleting everything under the Derived data and re-opening Xcode fixed everything for me.

There is short cut displayed on drop down menu, just use-

1. Control, Command and left mouse button

2. Command plus Right Mouse Click

instead of command left mouse button.

Ashish and Ghulam's answers were great but it still kinda bugged me that things had changed and I couldn't jump to definition as before. Then I found this...

Xcode9Beta2-Preferences->Navigation->Command-click on Code:->Jump To Definition:

Xcode9Beta2-Preferences->Navigation->Command-click on Code:->Jump To Definition

I don't know how Cmd + Option + Left Click worked for you guys, but the shortcut (at least for me) was Cmd + Ctrl + Left Click. I've tried on both Apple keyboard and MacBook keyboard and this is the one that did it.

When I ⌘-click on a symbol in Xcode 9 I see

That means you have to ⌃⌘-click on the symbol to skip the popup.

Nevertheless there is even a keyboard shortcut:

Standard hot key for jump to definition is ctrl+cmd+j. Set cursor to the class/method you are interested in and press this buttons to switch to declaration. Also you can try to press ctrl+opt+cmd+j. In this case definition will be opened in assistant editor
