Currently when you mouse over a bracket, VA will display the context in a tooltip. I find this really helpful, and would like to see a similar functionality applied to precompiler keywords such as #else and #endif which will show their context in the tooltip when moused over, as when dealing with codebases which abuse ifdefs, discerning which #endif is for which #if can be confusing.

This makes a lot of sense, I have put in a feature request for this:

case=103327

For now, if you place your caret on one of the lines you are interested in and press Ctrl+] you should be taken to the matching #if statement. This is mapped to the command Edit.GotoBrace for me, in case it is not mapped the same on your system.
