When performing, for instance, VAssistX.GoToImplementation on a symbol in my VisualStudio IDE, a modal pops up with the choices to pick and all keyboard keys are blocked except Esc (to close the modal), Enter (to chose the modal's selected item), up and down arrow keys to navigate and 1,2,..,N to select the Nth item.
My objective is to find a way to remap the key used to navigate the choices in this modal, preferably Ctrl+N for next down and Ctrl+P for the previous up. I have managed to make this work partially by remapping Edit.LineUp and Edit.LineDown respectively, but it works only for the modal that pops-up when you're writing something, for instance 'Foo' and the modal appears with 'FooA', 'FooB', 'FooC', you can navigate up and down with Edit.LineUp and Edit.LineDown in that modal. But this navigation doesn't work with the blocking modal generated by VAssistX.GoToImplementation, it seems to be different.
Any hacky way to achieve this? |

Is there a problem with using the Up or Down arrow keys?
Are you using Ctrl+N and Ctrl+P to navigate other menus?
I am just trying to understand why you are trying to do this, since it seems really quite odd.
It sort of reminds me of a request that came up from someone using VsVim, to make Visual Studio work like Vim, but they were trying to use different keys, and those really were movement keys when in command mode. |
