I’ve recently switched to a Macbook Pro and am doing my .NET development using VMWare Fusion. I love it and it’s working very smoothly.
So far the biggest headache I’ve encountered is that I couldn’t figure out how to execute the Alt+Insert “Generate…” Resharper shortcut.
I found a few different posts with suggestions, neither of which worked for me for some reason.
If they don’t work for you either, then maybe you can try what I did: Manually map the Fn+return combination to the Insert key within the VMWare Fusion preferences.
Step 1. Open the VMWare preferences panel from the “VMWare Fusion” menu,
Step 2. Navigate to the Keyboard & Mouse panel and then the Key Mappings subpanel,
Step 3. Click the + on the bottom left to add a new mapping,
Step 4. In the From: area, select input textbox and enter Fn+return (will be displayed as “Num Pad Enter”). Then choose “Insert” from the To: dropdown.
Now I can open the “Generate…” Resharper command with the Fn+option+return key combination. Much better.
