Is there any way of create or altering VS Keyboard shortcuts

Question

Hi,

I have recently installed Reshaper....this is very good and helpful however it has changed all my keyboard shortcuts e.g. to comment out code it was ctrl+e then c, now it is ctrl+k then c.....this is a pain given that I have got myself into a natural swing of using all the shortcuts and now I have to think everytime I want to use them...

A solution is obviously to shut up and use the new shortcuts....I agree, but its unnecessary to change the way I work if a alteration solution is possible - so therefore its necessary to not change.

Thanks,

U.

Answer 1

It should be possible. Check out this MSDN article on how to alter keyboard shortcuts in Visual Studio.

Answer 2

Yes, just go to Tools->Customize and click the "Keyboard" button in the bottom left.

Answer 3

Hi,

You can tell Resharper to use the VS shortcuts instead. At least for those you already know, they will stay the same

Answer 4

@Mike mentions the Tools, Customize, Keyboard button. There's a 'Reset' button in there that will take you to a pre-Resharper state.

If you later want to go back to the Resharper shortcuts, you can use a button in Resharper's own Options dialog to apply them.

Answer 5

During installation of ReSharper you can set whether it uses its own shortcut keys or Visual Studio. Moreover, there is an option in ReSharper to associate/dis-associate the keyboard shortcuts after installation.

Answer 6

Select ReSharper menu -> Options -> Visual Studio Integration: Select None and Apply Scheme. However, I highly recommend you pick one of the two keyboard layouts and learn it. Also, unplug the mouse a couple of hours a day. It helps improve efficiency.
