Default Keyboard Shortcut Schemes

All ReSharper actions can be invoked with keyboard shortcuts. Most of the actions have default shortcuts, which you can use out of the box. For the rest of the actions, you can assign a preferred shortcut keys if needed.

ReSharper provides two default keyboard shortcuts schemes.

  • Visual Studio This scheme aims to minimize conflicts with Visual Studio's own keyboard shortcuts.
  • ReSharper 2.x/IntelliJ IDEA This scheme shares the majority of shortcuts with those used in IntelliJ IDEA and its derivative web development IDEs. It provides a common keyboard-centric experience among all JetBrains development environments.

Whatever scheme you choose, you can always change individual keyboard shortcuts later.

If you want to change the shortcut for any single command, go to Tools | Options | Environment | Keyboard, find the command by its alias (see the right column in the tables below), press the new shortcut keys, and click Assign.

In this section, all commands are divided into several groups for your convenience:
