In Visual Studio, is there a keyboard shortcut to show the DataTip (that floating watch that appears on mouseover) in code editor window?

In Visual Studio, DataTip is the floating watch that appears when you hover your mouse over a variable and it shows its value:

datatip appearing when mouseover variable

Is there a way to do it from the keyboard instead of the mouse?

PS.: I now about the QuickWatch window (Shift+F9). I want a quicker watch than that. :)

I am using a visual studio extension (RevDeBug) to achieve the desired result. It has an option to display the value over the variables. You can find it here How it works
