Move line Up/Down shortcut in Visual Studio 2012

In VS2010 I had a shortcut set up Alt+Up/Down to move lines of code up or down, just like I used to have in Eclipse in my Java days.

Now since Power Tools and macros (which is how I set up this shortcut in VS2010) are not available in VS2012, how do I get this to work?

I've seen somebody mentioned that Resharper can do this, but for the love of fire and water, I can't find the command names in the list of commands that can do that. I have tried ReSharper_MoveUp/MoveDown and that does not move lines up/down:

Move_Up command did not do the trick

This moves blocks of text up and down. I just want line-by-line up or down, no fancy logic there. Before

What I have

After ALT+Up (when cursor is on WriteLine line) I would like to see this:

Line moved one up, inside the bracket, indented

I have seen these threads: What's the equivalent for eclipse's ALT+UP/DOWN (move line) in Visual Studio?, Visual Studio: hotkeys to move line up/down and move through recent changes, but none of the suggested solutions work in VS2012.

Any other ideas?

UPD 7 Nov 2012: . Extensions are catching up with Visual Studio 2012. Now I know at least 3 extensions that provide this functionality:

UPD 15 Nov 2012: Just stumbled across another extension that claims it does what is required here. Have not tried it though: LineMan Extension

UPD 10 May 2015 Just installed VS2015 RC and this is built-in already: MoveLineUp/Down

Install ReSharper.

Open Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard (as shown in a picture)

  1. Find "ReSharper.ReSharper_MoveUp"
  2. In "Use new shortcut in:" choose: "Text Editor"
  3. Click in "Press shortcut keys:" and press your shortcut (for example Alt+ArrowUp)
  4. Press "Assign" button Same with with "ReSharper.ReSharper_MoveDown"

P.S. Works fine for single lines and multiple selected lines, but removes selection after moved 1 line. Hope there are way to move multiple lines multiple times in one selection.

If you have Resharper, then you can hit Ctrl + Shift + Alt + ↑ to move the current line up. or Ctrl + Shift + Alt + ↓ to move one line down.

This works in VS 2012 Premium with Visual Studio keyboard scheme in Resharper 7 (7.0.97.60 to be precise).

Edit: This is mapped to 'ReSharper.ReSharper_MoveUp'/'MoveDown' commands.

You can use Move Line Command extension.

Just follow formula349's comment:

I was able to get this working with 2012 as-is.

Rename the package to .zip and unzip all files into a folder. Edit the extension.vsixmanifest file and look for the SupportedProducts XML node. Change the Version="10.0" to Version="11.0".

Re-zip the folder contents and rename back to .vsix. Works great!

Update: huzzah, Productivity PowerTools VS2012 is now available and offers this functionality (along with another personal favorite, Tools.AddEndTokenAtTheEnd.)

MoveLine Extension (compatible with VS 2012; I had to manually restart my VS in order to see the commands in VS's keyboard shortcut tool.)

For those who arrived on this question using Visual Studio 2013 or above, the feature is built right into the program. Just use AltUp and AltDown to move the line with your cursor—or the selected lines—up and down.

If you wish to rebind it in Tools > Options > Environment > Keyboard, the keys are Edit.MoveSelectedLinesUp and Edit.MoveSelectedLinesDown. You may need to remove your new combination from other existing keys first.

While a lot of people seem to be recommending misc. Visual Studio Extensions and Resharper, I would like to point out there is a native hotkey that accomplishes this goal. I came to this question trying to find the answer, as my Resharper replaced my default hotkeys with their MoveUp and MoveDown versions.

And while Resharper's hotkeys do move things up and down, they are not what the original poster are looking for, and they are not what I wanted. These hotkeys move methods and blocks of code, not individual lines.

Visual studio has two hotkey commands to move your selected lines upwards or downwards. These hotkeys are:

  • Edit.MoveSelectedLinesDown
  • Edit.MoveSelectedLinesUp

I am using Visual Studio 2013 however, so I am unaware if these exist in an older version. If 2012 does not have these hotkeys then perhaps an extension is the only solution.

Either way, I had an issue locating the exact hotkey within visual studio's list and it took me a good while to find these, so I hope that my solution manages to help someone else in a similar situation to my own.

Shift+Del and then Ctrl+V

Shift+Del does the cut (same as Ctrl+X) operation on the current line on which cursor is positioned.

Then you can use Ctrl+V to paste it at any place you like.

Good thing is that you don't need to select the complete current line, just the cursor needs to be positioned on the line.

One downside to using this shortcut is that you won't be able to see the line moving ( up or down ) lively in front of your eyes.

ReSharper's move up and move down shortcuts are smart - instead of just moving the current line (which can easily result in broken code), it will move the current statement up and down in the list of statements that make up the method body. This is much more powerful than just moving a single line of code.

But this doesn't help you get your statement inside the if block. Here you need to do one of two things.

Firstly, move the statement if1 the if block, then use Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Right to push it down in scope. The statement will now be inside the if block, and you can use up and down to move it around in there. You can also use Ctrl+Shift+Alt+if0 to pull it up in scope, outside of the if block.

Alternatively, you can put the text caret on the outside of the closing brace of the if block and use Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Down to move the brace down, stepping over following statements, including them inside the if block.

These keys can do a lot more than just move a single statement. If you put the text caret on a method or class declaration, Up and Down will move the entire method or class declaration up and down. If you put the text caret in the parameter list of a method, Left and Right will rearrange individual parameters (and then Alt+Enter can invoke the Change Signature refactoring).
