I'm wondering if this is just my ReSharper setup, but as of updating to Visual Studio 2015 with ReSharper Ultimate 9.1.3, using the Shift+Alt+L shortcut while editing a .resx in the designer does nothing.

Has anybody else experienced this, and is there any config that will get this working or is it a bug?

Thanks

This was caused (for me anyway) because my keyboard mapping had magically changed back to UK mapping from US (I want US).

The other day I had another issue that caused Resharper key mappings to go awry and followed some advice on another post (I can't find it at the moment) that want along the lines of:

  • Open Tools > Options > Keyboard and hit Reset
  • Open Resharper > Options > Keyboard & Menus, select "Visual Studio" and hit "Apply Scheme"

This should wrest control from Resharper back to Visual Studio and give Resharper the freedom it needs to wrest control back from VS.. ugh, but it worked

  • Hmm, I just tried this without any luck. The problem I have is specific to the .resx editor in Visual Studio 2015. I tried it out on a colleagues machine and it has the exact same issue, so I believe it's a resharper bug. – unenthusiasticuser Oct 15 '15 at 13:22

    Yeah I completely agree there is something a little off with Resharper and VS2015 – Paul Carroll Oct 19 '15 at 05:56
  • Still running into this sometimes here in the future (with VS 2017). Your second suggestion (via Resharper menu) worked for me. – Eric Pohl Jul 17 '17 at 16:25
  • They are actually two parts of the same process. Glad to hear you've got it fixed though! – Paul Carroll Jul 18 '17 at 20:33
  • this has also worked for ctrl+shit+t "go to file", thank you @PaulCarroll – Saif Asad Jun 03 '18 at 00:06

Maybe have a look to Stackoverflow - How to locate a file in Solution Explorer in Visual Studio 2010?.

Tools (in Menu) -> Options -> Keyboard -> goto input Show commands containing and type SolutionExplorer.SyncWithActiveDocument. Goto Press Shortcut Keys and press Shift + Alt + L click on Assign button.

You may get a warning that the shortcut is already in use.

    To make sure this works I unassigned all other shortcuts that used "Shift+Alt+L" – Tom Dec 18 '20 at 16:29
  • The shortcut `CTRL + ALT + L` was by default assigned to `View.SolutionExplorer` in my VS 2022. If you can't find the current command where the hotkey is assigned to there's a Shortcut Browser in ReSharper under: Extensions > ReSharper > Options > Keyboard > Shortcut Scheme > Usability > Enable Shortcut Browser (experimental) [Press left Ctrl key 3 times within 1,5 seconds to show up] – FireEmerald Jul 27 '23 at 09:05
