Question

My google fu is failing me. Visual Studio and Resharper helpfully provide closing brackets and the like. For example, typing “var foo = new Foo(” immediately inserts a ). Great! So I go to insert a bunch of other stuff. I know I can just type in the closing characters and it’ll gloss over fine, but when I do something like this…

var foo = new Foo(new Bar()
{
    Something = 48,
    SomethingElse = new Fred(new Bob())
};

Right after typing Bob the rest is generated. I want to be able to cleanly move to the end of that generated code and move to the next line without touching the arrow keys. A simpler example:

if (something)
{
    Something();
}

That last curly brace is made for me, but I want to go past it without touching the arrow keys. Is there any shortcut that I’m missing?

Answer 1

Just keep typing. Type the closing “)” (ReSharper will move past it), then the semicolon (ReSharper will enter it).
