from @Nicolab

Suggestion: it would be more efficient to make a ctrl+click like in Eclipse IDE for "go to declaration"

as

atom#18

@Nicolab 4h?

[Nicolab]

@resistdesign just a typo (corrected since)

ctrl-click is already used to have multiple cursor so it should be better to map it on something else, without the click... since all something-click are used in atom or by the OS

[Nicolab]

alt-clic ?

[Nicolab]

Great !

Thank you @yongkangchen

I think this should be reopened as alt+click event is not triggered in the latest Atom, it instead highlights the options in the topbar. Pressing ctrl+alt+click triggers the event but I don't think it's a good way of doing it.

Also alt-click is not working in ubuntu, because alt-click triggers window move (affects not only ubuntu I assume). Maybe ctrl+shift+click will work?

I would like to suggest revisiting this binding. It would be great to allow configuring the keystrokes for go-to-declaration since alt-click also collides w/ sublime style column select.

@n3bulous +1. Please allow the mouse binding to be configurable. I too use the sublime-style column select and this busts it (or vice versa, if you please)

[fynnit]

how about alt+cmd+ click?

😀 OK OK stop this!!!.
All other editors is using Ctrl + Click. Do not invent the wheel again.

Hey, just to put it out there. I've created declarations package, it's the base package for declarations and is pretty neat and consistent across providers

Subscribing for Ctrl + Click possibility (configurable?)

Is there a way to disable this? I'm constantly double clicking a word and I'm used to already press ctrl while double clicking to do ctrl+c to copy, which then will go to definition instead of copying.

+1 for ctrl + click.
Even if ctrl+click is used for the multiple cursor feature, I think we can have have a goto-definition on this same shortcut like in Wbestorm (or any Jetbrains IDE).
