Intellij provides "Switcher" which not only switches between recent files but also tool windows.
Some tool windows are not being assigned to a shortcut which forces you to open it every time going trough Switcher dialog instead of just doing a simple shortcut.
For example here gradle does not have a shortcut
Although it is shown as tool window under number 5
How do we manage these shortcuts?
Go to Settings -> Keymap -> Other and find Gradle, assign shortcut as you wish (i.e. Alt + 2). It will work. Note that a hint on button (in this example 2:Gradle) will appear after restarting.
Is it possible to change Alt+Enter (Show the list of available intention actions) keyboard shortcut in IntelliJ/Android Studio?
I have browsed through File->Settings->Keymap and couldn't find it, though I remember that I was changing it before.
You find it in the Keymap settings under
Other->Show Intention Actions
In VB6 you can easily go to next procedure by pressing CTRL+Page Down and also previous procedure by pressing CTRL+Page Up.
However I can't find any way to do that using Visual Studio 2010 programming VB.NET; I want to scroll down or up to go to the previous or next procedure using a keyboard shortcut.
Yes, keybindings do exist and you're in luck; the keybindings below relate to Visual Studio 2010's Visual Basic.
It's come to my attention that these default keybindings aren't available in some installations of Visual Studio. If this is the case for you then proceed with the key-binding instructions below this section.
Visual Studio 2005, 2008, 2010
Next Method or Type: CTRL + ↓ or CTRL + PAGE DOWN
Previous Method or Type: CTRL + ↑ or CTRL + PAGE UP
All keybindings for Visual Studio 2010's Visual Basic can be found here, and more keybindings for other programming languages in Visual Studio can be found here
Same keybindings for other versions:
Visual Studio 2012, 2013, and 2015 (and any other version without the default keybindings)
Visual Studio 2012/2013/2015 Does not appear to have any Edit.NextMethod or Edit.PreviousMethod keybindings and the same behaviour can be observed for some installations of other Visual Studio versions, instead you'll have to assign your own:
TOOLS >> OPTIONS >> ENVIRONMENT >> KEYBOARD >> Select Visual Basic 6 from the Apply the following keyboard mapping scheme dropdown:
Find Edit.NextMethod and Edit.PreviousMethod in the Commands box:
Click within the Press Shortcut Keys box and press the shortcut keys you want to assign on the keyboard. In this case, let's copy the shortcut keys from Visual Studio 2010:
Once you've done that, click Assign and then do the same for the other command; the shortcut keys will now work
The Default key-binding is slightly misleading; it only applies if you open a file with Visual Studio that is not supported by the IDE, therefore you should be careful that you do not add a keybinding under this.
I want to change the default keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+Enter) for the Browser Link feature in Visual Studio 2013 to another key, but i can't find any options in the keyboard list.
if at all possible, how can i change it?
There is a user voice for this feature:
Make shortcut for "Refresh Linked Browsers" changeable
Like I said in the title of this question, is it possible to attach a keyboard shortcut to collapse all items in the solution explorer with Visual Studio 2012?
In previous version; 2010, I was able to create a macro to enable this feature but in Visual Studio 2012, there is no more support for macros.
I'm able to right click onto item in the solution explorer and choose 'Collapse All' but I prefer to just typed 'Ctrl+Shift+C' to do the same job.
FWIW, this is the best I've been able to come up with so far.
Alternative 1
Press Ctrl+¨ to put focus in the search box above the Solution Explorer.
Press Shift+Tab to move focus to the toolbar.
Use the left arrow to move focus to the left, until you hit the Collapse All button (four times. YMMV).
Alternative 2
Press Ctrl+Alt+l (or whatever your personal shortcut is) to focus the Solution Explorer.
Press Shift+Alt to focus the Solution Explorer toolbar. This puts the focus on the Home button on the toolbar.
Use the right arrow to move focus to the right, until you hit the Collapse All button (three times).
Press Enter.
Alternative 3
Press Ctrl+Alt+l (or whatever your personal shortcut is) to focus the Solution Explorer.
Press and hold the left arrow until you've reached the top node (the Solution node).
Press the up arrow to put focus in the search box above the Solution Explorer.
Press Shift+Tab to move focus to the toolbar.
Use the left arrow to move focus to the left, until you hit the Collapse All button (two times. YMMV).
As you can see in the screenshot below, there is an option called Collapse All and a shortcut key next to it.
Now this shortcut key will not work for you !
Unless ofcourse, you set it up using Tools > Options > Keyboard. The command name is CollapseInSolutionExplorerAction. Search using this command name and assign a shortcut key of your choice.
That's it and you are ready to use your shortcut key !

Visual Studio 2012 / ReSharper 8.0.1:
The command is 'ProjectAndSolutionContextMenus.Project.ReSharper_CollapseInSolutionExplorer'.
I suggest you to try CodeMaid extension for Visual Studio. It provides a command "Collapse All Projects Recursively" that has customizable shortcut (by default, it is Ctrl+M,-). It has some other nice abilities, like switching between .cpp and its .h files, joining lines, etc.
I have searched on the net a way to do this when I have first install VS2012 ..
I have just found the solution, so I share it :)
you can do this by adding your visual studio version to an existing Extension ...
Download the extension for VS 10
Change the extension from vsix to zip
extract it and open the file extension.vsixmanifest
Find this xml section : SupportedProducts
Add this :
<VisualStudio Version="11.0">
<Edition>Ultimate</Edition>
<Edition>Premium</Edition>
<Edition>Pro</Edition>
</VisualStudio>
you can also try version 12 for visual studio 2013 ...
zip it, and change the extension from zip to vsix.
Now you can Install it.
after install it, Goto Tools -> Customise and click on the keyboard button.
Search "CrossProjectMultiProject.CollapseProjects" and assing the shortcut you like.
Have a nice codding.
Please +1 if this help you
ps. sorry for my bad English, im French ;-)
