Navigation Overview#

PHP Tools provides three ways to efficiently navigate the PHP source code. All the approaches integrate with the existing Visual Studio Code user interface.

The navigation may not be able to locate symbols in invalid PHP files, because syntax errors generally change the meaning of code.

Go To Definition#

PHP Tools supports the Go To Definition feature invoked by the F12 key.

Go to Symbol#

PHP Tools supports the Go to Symbol feature invoked by the Ctrl+Shift+O key.

Open Symbol by Name#

PHP Tools supports the Open Symbol by Name feature invoked by the Ctrl+T key.
