	Hello, its painful I would like to look into code behaviour and only can jump into header .h file. I want to see definition in .cpp file. Can anybody explain what I did wrong in creating my project? Its also not possible in simple blink.ino digitalWrite() Also tried add existing file to src folder. Thanks in advance! Christoph

	This is improved by clicking vMicro > "Show/Hide Hidden Files" as a first step. For me, from my INO, "Go To Definition" takes me to the .c file, "Go to Declaration" takes me to the .h file. Once in the .h file, you can then right click > "Toggle Header / Code File". Then next time you press F12 in the .h file on e.g. digitalWrite() it will take you to the *.c definition. Let us know if this resolves your issue, or if I have missed something.

	Yes works like described, many thanks. However when I search through code its hard to get to the spawn of every code, like in the picture. The IDE does not show the row where uint8_t port gets decleared defined Christoph
