The latest version of IntelliJ has introduced a new type of hint in debug mode. It looks like:
Does anybody know how to disable it?
Also: does anybody know the term JetBrains uses for this feature? I can't look up the location of the setting in the setting search box without knowing what it's called!
You may switch it off by unchecking the "Predict future condition values…" option in "Preferences / Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | Debugger | Data Views | Java"

I accidentally enabled rainbow variables in PhpStorm and it looks absolutely horrible. It sounds kinda silly but I just cant find the settings to disable them.
I have looked up the extension and followed the steps to uninstall but I haven't found anything related to rainbow variables https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/17748-rainbow-variable
I also uninstalled Rainbow Brackets and everything else relating to styling code or variables from the plugins page
And yes I restarted the IDE after those changes with no success. I'm currently on the version 2022.2.3 of PhpStorm.
If you have disabled that Rainbow Variables plugin and still seeing the functionality then it might be PhpStorm's Semantic Highlighting in action.
Settings/Preferences | Editor | Color Scheme | Language Defaults | Semantic highlighting and make sure it is disabled there.
Please note that Rainbow Brackets plugin turns the above option ON automatically and prevents disabling it (on IDE restart). This should be fixed in latest plugin versions:
2022.3.3 Fix #2541: [Rainbow variables] Ask to enable rainbow variables before turn it on
2022.3.4 Fix #2551: [Rainbow variables] rainbow variable does not take effect after IDEA is restarted
For PhpStorm 2022.3, it is here we can disable rainbow variables (even for .json file, where each line has a diffent color).
I found the same problem in IntelliJ. However, there're checkboxes in the IntelliJ settings -> Rainbow Brackets(yes, it has an independent setting bar). If PS has the same form of settings, you may uncheck the 'rainbow variable' box. screen shot
When I resized the window of IntelliJ IDEA or switch to another tab, it automatically rebuild the project. I have 2 modules in the same project, and it only auto rebuilds in 1 module :) . I want to know how to disable this. Thank you very much.
Probably rebuild is triggered by save action? Please check settings under "Settings/Preferences | Appearance & Behavior | System Settings"
I'm starting with rider and just started doing some of the built-in introductory tutorials.
Just at the beginning (I think it is third step) of the essentials tutorial I am instructed to do this (Can be read on the right) but no option is shown in the contextual popup realted to Checking expression to null.
Must I do anything special for this option to show?
The solution wasn't loaded correctly. The red exclamation mark in the right upper corner of the editor sais that solution analysis also has errors. In addition, we see lots of red code in the editor. It seems to be the reason for the corresponding action absence. Most likely, it means that you have incorrect MSBuld in Rider settings "File | Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | Toolset and Build." Please, check your MSBuild settings.

That gray blob right before 0. Please identify the feature, and, if possible, tell how to change the color of this hint.
I'm a fan of JetBrains IDEs, but only occasionally I use Java. Seen this feature some time ago, but totally forgot what it is :(
It is a parameter name hint. These can be disabled for that constructor with an intention (AltEnter) on the parameter itself or in Settings | Editor | General | Appearance. The color of the hint can be changed in Settings | Editor | Colors & Fonts | Language Defaults | Inline parameter hint.
My IntelliJ Idea editor leaves a sort of virtual space before string arguments when functions are called (see the string "street" below):
I call it virtual because there's no character to be deleted there, but it can be seen clearly and bothers me. I'm not sure if it's a feature or a bug. I'm using the Community Edition 2016.3 on Ubuntu 16.04.
This is new feature of IDEA 2016.3 called Parameter hints. And it usually looks like:
The idea of it is that editor shows parameter hints for literals and nulls used as method arguments. These hints make code much more readable.
If you find hints redundant for a certain method, you can tell the IDEA not to show hints for this method. To disable hints completely:
uncheck Settings → Editor → General → Appearance → Show parameter name hints.
or just press Ctrl+Shift+A to open Find Action menu and type there parameter hint. Then either click Toggle parameter name hints or Appearance: Show parameter name hints menu item:
The reason why you don't see parameter names may be your UI options. Set the appearance and colors to default values.
You may have changed the code style for Java source code under File | Settings | Editor | Code Style | Java (for Windows and Linux) or IntelliJ IDEA | Preferences | Editor | Code Style | Java(for OS X).
If this is the case you have likely changed either the spacing settings for method opening braces or the spacing settings for method parameters. Just from the image I can't tell which setting is specifically causing this to happen, so could you perhaps edit in a screenshot of the your editor's current code style settings?
