Finding a CSS Class Definition
A couple of weeks ago I pointed out that you could easily find the definition of a property, method, variable, or class by right-clicking the item and selecting, “Go To Definition” from the context menu.
You can also use this feature in your ASPX files to find the definition of CSS classes. However, you cannot use this to find definitions of rules. And if the class is not defined, you will not see the menu option and you’ll get a green squiggly under the class and the tooltip will tell you that the class is not defined.
