If a symbol is defined in your source code, you can click and go to its definition on the Quick Info window. No need to hit `F12` on your keyboard any more! Even more, _Codist_ also tells you where the symbol is defined if you hover your mouse over it.

***Use enhanced symbol signature style** is a new setting in version 6.6, enabled by default, which optimizes the display of symbol signatures with a reorganized layout. The layout is especially optimized for long and complex signatures, yet ordinary short symbols can also benefit from it. The following is an example for the style. A large icon on the top-left part of the quick info can be clicked and brings out a menu for symbol analysis. Next to the icon is the name of the symbol with larger text size. Clicking on the name can jump to its definition. The parameters for the method are listed next. The reorganized layout never breaks the parameter type from its name, so it is easier to find out and locate each parameter type and name. Beneath the signature is the containing type of the symbol, as well the kind of the symbol. And the member type (return value) of the symbol is under the containing type.
* A **Context menu** with many symbol analysis commands will show up when you right click the signature of the symbol definition or any symbol that appears in the XML Doc.

***Use alternative style** option moves the glyph of the symbol to the bottom-right of the quick info, and [removes individual hyperlinks within the symbol signature parts](https://github.com/wmjordan/Codist/issues/102), which comes with Visual Studio 2019 update 3, in order to make it easier to use the _Click and Go_ feature on the symbol.
