Question
When you type something and there's some problem you get a tiny red rectangle at the end of the symbol/word that has the problem and when you hover the mouse over it, you get a button and when you press the button you get a list of possible actions to fix the problem, including adding using statements or refactoring.
Is there a way to open that menu with the keyboard so I don't have to reach my mouse?
Solution
While shift+alt+f10 works there is an alternate shortcut i find easier to type:
ctrl+.
OTHER TIPS
I believe Ctrl+. also works...that's what I've been using all these years...fewer keystrokes
Found it, in the tooltip: Shift+Alt+F10
