Hi, this is exciting that they are finally getting this added into VS Code
for at least C++! I agree, python would be one, and I would also like to add
Javascript to the list as well.
There is just not great official ways of doing this with NVDA, so glad they
are finally addressing this.

Subject: [program-l] NextMethod and PreviousMethod in Visual Studio
Hey folks,
I remember a conversation a while back about someone asking for a keyboard
shortcut to move to the next or previous method in a file. I remember that
Python and C++ were the languages that requested this.
I just heard from the C++ team that Edit.NextMethod and Edit.PreviousMethod
will be available for C++ with 17.3 Preview 1. If everything goes according
to schedule, that release should be out in early May. The Python folks are
looking into this as well, but I don't have a timeline for that.
They don't have keyboard shortcuts assigned to them by default, so if
they're methods you want to use, you can either get to them from the main
menu (They're the last entries in the Edit menu and they don't have
accelerator keys, so I'll see if I can get that fixed. For now, Alt, E, Up
Arrow, Enter will get Previous Method and Alt, E, Up, Up, Enter will get
Next Method), or you can bind them to whatever keyboard shortcuts you want
in Tools\Options under keyboard. (Let me know if folks need a tutorial on
rebinding keyboard shortcuts).
The C++ team would like to know if there are any issues with their
implementation, so once it's available, please let me know if anyone has
feedback.
