Sometimes pinning a DataTip in Visual Studio 2010 is not very easy using the mouse, e.g:

enter image description here

If the DataTip is very long (as shown above), it can be quite tricky to move the mouse cursor from the variable to the “pin” icon. Sometimes the DataTip will disappear as soon as the mouse is moved outside of the DataTip area.

Is there an easy way to pin DataTips, e.g. a keyboard shortcut?

    (In addition to Werolik’s answer)

    It seems, that by default no keyboard shortcut is defined to pin a DataTip. But it is possible to define a custom shortcut:

    • go to Tools –> Customize… –> Keyboard…
    • search for commands containing PinToSource
    • set a custom shortcut key combination
