Ctrl+R, Ctrl+R command not working

Question

I\'m attempting to use the Ctrl+R, Ctrl+R command within Visual Studio 2008 to rename a variable. I get an error message at the bott

Answer 1

For DevExpress:

• Open the Options screen (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+O)
• Go to Core → Features
• Set Default to Visual Studio shortcuts

Answer 2

For me, the issue was I hadn't started the Resharper evaluation which wasn't obvious because all of the Resharper extension options were accessible, but the clue was under:

Extensions -> Resharper -> Why Resharper Is Disabled.

Click "Start Evaluation" (in the same location as "Pause Evaluation" in the screenprint)

I expected the evaluation to start when I clicked "OK", but clearly it doesn't.

Answer 3

For me, this problem was caused by me not clicking 'Accept" on the terms and conditions page, but closing it. I did not realize it was the terms and conditions, and thought it was just a notice, or a 'readme' being displayed.

Answer 4

I was able to fix this by doing the following:

1. Go to Resharper → Options menu commmand
2. Select Environment → Keyboard & Menus
3. Select the Visual Studio option under Keyboard Shortcuts
4. Click Apply Scheme and Save

This will cause Ctrl+R, Ctrl+R to do a rename. (Select ReSharper options in the dialog box that pops up then.)

However, it made F2 no longer able to preform a rename. I was able to fix that by doing the following:

1. Go to ReSharper → Options menu command
2. Select Environment → General
3. Select the ReSharper 2.x or IntelliJ IDEA under Restore ReSharper keyboard shortcuts
4. Click Apply or OK

This allows both F2 and Ctrl+R, Ctrl+R commands to work for renaming a variable.

This seems to be specific to ReSharper being installed with Visual Studio, I don't know what the solution would be to fix this if ReSharper weren't installed.

Answer 5

You get this behaviour in Visual Studio (without R# installed) if the editor window does not have focus when you issue the shortcut. I've just tried it with R# installed and it does the same thing.

Give the editor focus (ie. by clicking in it) and try again.

Answer 6

For Resharper 6

You should:

• Select menu "Resharper" - "Options..."
• Select "Visual Studio Integration"
• Choose "Visual Studio" in both places
• Click "Apply Scheme"

It will either works or you will have a selection to do (Visual Studio or Resharper), if it is so, then choose Resharper.
