Can't jump to closing parenthesis

Post by Thenrich » Fri 02 Mar 2018 19:36

I can't jump to the closing parenthesis. It's supposed to work in SSMS by using ctrl-] or ctrl-shift-] and they don't work in SSMS 17.5. I am not sure if SQL Complete is doing something here since I think the functionality is part of Intellisense. It doesn't work also if I disable SQL Complete.

Also shift-F12 doesn't do it. It seems SQL Complete's 'Jump Bteween Syntax pairs' is only for Begin & End pairs. It would be nice if it also works for parentheses.

We will review this when developing the next product versions.

It was broken by Microsoft itself in SSMS. Though, we will make it to work with the means of dbForge SQL Complete in the next version 6.0.

I would like to see brace match coloring and ctrl-] keyboard shortcut support, the same way these work in dbForge Studio.

Could you please describe it in more detail?

Also, please check that you are using the latest build 5.9.66 https://www.devart.com/dbforge/sql/sqlc ... nload.html

I am using 5.9.66. Using ctrl-] has no effect on braces. I want to do brace matching.

Thank you for the reply.

Please note that, in SSMS, this feature belongs to its own functionality. This is not the feature of dbForge SQL Complete. You can manually add the shortcut in the native settings of SSMS.

Look at your own answer on On Thu 05 Apr 2018. Is it broken or not? The keyboard shortcut for GotoBrace is already mapped to ctrl=] but it doesn't do anything. You said it will be fixed in 6.0. Will it?

We do apologize for the confusion.

This is still the issue of SSMS itself and will can't intervene into it.

An SSMS add-on should technically be able to do anything in the text editor.
