Visual Studio Tab out of brackets/quotes?

resharper, visual-studio-2012

Solution

The easiest way to jump out of the automatically inserted quote or bracket is to type the closing quote or bracket, i.e.: `"` followed by `"` or `(` followed by `)`. You could also use the right arrow key. If you have resharper then you can use `CTRL`+`SHIFT`+`ENTER` to auto complete the current statement.

If you are a fan of keyboard shortcuts to move around your code then try the VsVim Extension.

Problem

I'm primarily a Java developer and I've recently started developing apps for Windows Store using Visual Studio 2012. When I started coding several years ago, I used Visual Studio 2008. I didn't think anything of certain features until I started doing Java in Eclipse. Anyway, in Eclipse, I can press "tab" to jump out of quotes or brackets. The only Visual Studio 2012 feature I could find remotely similar to this was included in Visual Studio 2012 Productivity Power Tools. It allows me to do Shift+Enter anywhere on a line, and it'll add a semicolon to the end of the line and go to the next one. While this is useful, it's not ideal in many situations. I am also using Resharper and have found no such setting in there. Thanks
