How to show the use of a function in Visual Studio code?

Question

I use from Pycharm to be able to press ctrl + click on a function definition and see usage. Is there an equivalent in VSC?

Answer 1

you can use shift + f12 for a better view of usage

Answer 2

Exists, but VSCode does not support key bindings using mouse buttons. This means that it will not work the same as in PyCharm.

What you can do though is to use - I believe - Shift F12 or set some key combination to show all the usage features.

To do this, you can press Ctrl K , then Ctrl S and click on the link "keybinding.json" in the sentence: "For advanced settings, open and edit keybinding.json".
With keybinding.json , add the following entry there.

 { "key": "ctrl+shift+d", "command": "editor.action.referenceSearch.trigger", "when": "editorHasReferenceProvider && editorTextFocus && !inReferenceSearchEditor" } 

It should allow you to show the use of the function by pressing Ctrl Shift D. Obviously, you can customize it as you like.

I also recommend adding the following entry to close the dialog with the same key combination.

 { "key": "ctrl+shift+d", "command": "closeReferenceSearch", "when": "referenceSearchVisible && !config.editor.stablePeek" }
