Currently the dialog popup showing references presents only the name of symbol that we are looking for and a name of a file where it's located.
It would be much more helpful if a line of code containing that symbol would be presented there like in References dialog or at least a name of the caller, e.g. [ClassName].[SymbolNameWhichCallsTheReference]
Also the filtering option should narrow down available locations, in other words the search should filter out the files, not the name of the symbol that we are looking for (it's useless). Searching over names of symbols would make sens if you put there name of the caller as requested above.
Additional nice thing to have would be an option to switch from the popup to standard References dialog. That might be useful if there are plenty of references.
Hi Arkadiusz,
Thank you for your feedback and providing screenshots. We agree that your suggested improvements for the "Jump to References" navigation provider will be useful. We have added these ideas in our backlog for future updates and will inform you of our progress.
As concerns importing results provided by a navigation provider to the References window, CodeRush for Roslyn provides this functionality. To do this, please click the appropriate button in the left-top corner or use the "Ctrl + P" shortcut:
Indeed, I missed "Display data in a separate window option". Thanks for that. One minor issue is that "Show parenting … " options are selected then. See the screenshot
I meant that they _aren't_ selected
Arkadiusz,
To process your last post more efficiently, I've created a separate ticket on your behalf: References - Save current grouping on importing results of the 'Jump to References' provider. Please let's continue our discussion there.
