I have the following files in a project (for a class which implements a COM interface): a.h, a.cpp, b.cpp, c.cpp.
Now, if I select a method of this class in the VA View which is defined in b.cpp, right-click on it and select Goto from the context menu, VA takes me to the method declaration in a.h, but not to b.cpp, where I would like to go. I didn't find any way for VA to take me directly to the implementation of the method in b.cpp. Is this normal?

I have the same problem. It would be massively more useful to go to the actual function implementation instead of the declaration in the header.

Pressing Alt-G takes me to the header, but once in the header this key combination does nothing. Strange that it works for you.

Goto Definition and Goto Declaration in the Context Menu of the IDE, ie Right+Click in the source window, are IDE commands. They are not VA X commands.

The Go button to the right of our Definition field, and Alt+G, is a VA X command. You must be on a symbol to use Alt+G. Learn more at:
