Finding Usages of a Symbol
Shift+F12
This command allows finding all usages of a specific symbol in the solution. You can start the search from the declaration of the symbol or from any other usage.
To find usages of a symbol
Place the caret on a symbol in the editor editor or select the symbol in the Structure tool window.
- Do one of the following:
In the main menu, choose
.Right-click and choose Find Usages in the context menu.
Press Shift+F12.
If a single usage is found, JetBrains Rider will navigate you to the usage directly in the editor editor. Two or more search results will be shown in the Find Results window, where you can conveniently explore and analyze the usages.
Finding usages of generic types
When searching for usages of generic types such as IFoo<string>
, you may actually want to find either all usages of IFoo<>
or usages of the exact generic substitution IFoo<string>
only.
By default, JetBrains Rider allows you to disambiguate the search results by showing an additional popup.
