No this is not possible, because the RobotCode language server only knows robot files and if you import a library into a robot file, robot framework only get line numbers from python.
The trick here is, instead going to the python function/method and try to find all references from here, you can also use "Find All References" from a keyword call in a robot/resource file and you will get all location where this keyword is used in robot/resource files
Thx for the quick reply. I know that I can still workaround this by using search tool, or going to a usage in a robot file and using "Find All References", but this is still a bit frustrating. Is there any chance to see this feature implemented? Is it conceivable that the language server listens to python files only for this purpose?
Listen also for Python files is easy, but finding the exact position of a declaration can be tricky since the RobotFramework Libdoc tool, which RobotCode uses internally, only provides the start line numbers of the methods/functions in the Python file. Additionally, there are dynamic libraries like remote libraries that do not provide a line number and so on.
I have changed this issue to an enhancement so that we don’t forget about it and can take a closer look at it later.
When I use "Find All References" from a function implemented in a python file, the usages in robot files are not found. Is this feature implemented? If so, is there something to configure? If not, could this feature be implemented?
Note: I'm able to navigate from robot file to python file with "Go to Definition"
