Go to definition not working if there is a new line after a (

[MangelMaxime]

Describe the bug**

If there is a new line after a ( we can't "Go to definition".

Steps to reproduce

1. Copy/paste the this code

module Repro =

    type Replacer () =
        static member Replace(value : string, a : string, b : string) = ""

    let x = Replacer.Replace("", "", "")

    let y = Replacer.Replace(
                "", "", "")

2. Try to "Go to definition" by doing Ctrl + Click on Replace of the line let y
3. See nothing happen

Link to sample reproduction

Expected behaviour

We should be able to go to definition.

Happening as well with the following code:

// Errors.fs

module Errors =
    exception AuthError of message: string * code: string

// Main.fs

let login =
    promise {

        let! optionUser = Models.UsersModel.getUser ("[email protected]", None)

        let user =
            match optionUser with
            | Some u -> 1
            | None ->
                let error =
                    Errors.AuthError( // This is not recognized
                        message = "Provided email not found",
                        code = "Error.NOT_FOUND_EMAIL"
                    )

                1
                // raise error

        return user
    }

It is really strange that the order of match options affects the syntax colors aswell, which makes me suspicious. Sadly I can't find what exactly does cause this behaviour, I've seen it happens with exceptions and classes inside modules in other files.

This is still active in 5.10.1.

I have the same issue with third-party libs. He find the signature but not the definition.

[baronfel]

@yuri-potatoq I think your example might be slightly different - that's a type alias, and those are often wonky in tooling APIs and typically require some special handling.

Thank you to quickly help me. I see the difference with previous one, but what about this another case? Basically, this happen with all implementations that i'm currently using in this sample project.
