Keyboard Shortcuts in Visual Studio for faster coding

Question

Visual Studio autocompletes brackets and tags and then shifts the cursor inside a bracket/tag upon creation. I usually have to hit END then ENTER to continue past the tag, it would be really useful to 'jump' over the closing tag/bracket and possibly to the next line.

enter image description here

Is there a fundamental keyboard shortcut I'm missing here in order to accomplish this?

Can't find this in the MSDN VS Keyboard Shortcut manual either.

Amol, don't understand why you downvoted. It's a fairly difficult thing to Google and it isn't in the Keyboard Shortcut list either. I've checked. — Daniel van Flymen, Dec 10 '14 at 08:20

The keyboard shortcut you are looking for is Ctrl + Shift + Enter.

Pressing this will take you to the next line instead of inserting an enter, allowing you to move the cursor outside of the tag.
