Go to next method shortcut in VSCode

Does VSCode have shortcut to move to next method definition in the same file? I can't find anything like this in settings.

IntelliJ has this feature, for example, you can find this as Next Method in settings

I would like to have few notes about others solutions and my own:

  • Malks solution is great for MacOS this worked for me cmd+shift+.

  • Mishkin using a specific extension probably is the ideal solution, however it didn't work for me in MacOS tried to remap to my own shortcuts and config it still nothing worked.

  • Lex solution takes you to a specific line (which can be directly achieved by CMD+L in MacOS).

Eventually the best solution for me at least is to start picking up the basics of VIM motions and install the Vim extension.

in my setting.json:

"editor.linernumber": "relative"

now in insert mode writing k+{line-number} will take me to the line immediately I want to go to

Without vim motion is possible you will use CMD+L.

However, we would like to move from one function to the other in-which we will:

this highly dependable on your language thought (you can config and create your own binding).

In python you can use: ]m and [m . (readthis)

and so on.

Another option much easier than picking-up VIM-motions, is to use this extension Jump (Publisher: Wenfang Du)

It will send the cursoer to start/end of a specific word (you can use it mutliple times to reach a specific function).

OPT/ALT+Q OPT/ALT+W: is the default to jump to end of a word (change this shortcut to somethign faster).

Another option is to use Go to Symbol in Editor default hotkey is Ctrl+Shift+o. Then type : for sorting.

Old question, but I found interacting with the breadcrumb useful. ctrl-shift-. takes focus to the breadcrumb and up and down arrows move through the outline, with the bonus that the editor follows.

To achieve this I have developed an extension that provides two key commands to navigate up and down through the members in your file.

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=mishkinf.goto-next-previous-member#overview

Visual Studio Code Extension to navigate through the functions, variables, and classes using quick and easy keycommands similar to functionality provided by IntelliJ IDE's (next/previous function) or Resharper (next/previous member)

Let me know if there any features you would like added.
