Visual Studio 2008 - jump to line number shortcut

Question

I can go to a specific line number by double clicking in the status bar in Visual Studio. Is there a keyboard shortcut that does the same thing?

Answer 1

Ctrl + G works for me.

If it doesn't work for you, you can always map whatever shortcut you want under Tools | Options | Environment | Keyboard.

EDIT: Yes, as @Brian mentions, the command in this case is Edit.GoTo

I just realised that the default in C# settings for this command is Ctrl + G, whereas in VB Settings, there is no default keyboard short - it's mapped to show the immediate window - strange I think. I swapped the mappings so that the two environment behave the same.

Answer 2

Ctrl + G

Answer 3

Every IDE or even text editor I have ever used either uses Ctrl + L or Ctrl + G for this purpose.

I assume this could stand for Ctrl + Line or Ctrl + Goto

Answer 4

Yep Ctrl + G.
