Is there any shortcut to reformat the code in all the open files in IntelliJ? I'm specifically looking for a way to reformat all the open files inside editor and not all the files in project.
The closest that I could recommend is to select the root folder from the project explorer and press alt+command+L(MAC OS). Reformat Code window pops up. In the pop-up, select the scope as Open files and Click run. It formats all the open files

IntelliJ IDEA jumps in project structure to folder where the file is located when I open it.
How to stop this? I don't want to see how project structures always jumping.
Use Find Action. ⌘+shift+A On MacOS. ctrl+shift+A on Windows/Linux.
Search for "Always Select Opened File"
Make sure it is off
I have started using Intellij and I am trying to find a feature that was in eclipse. I often navigate to a file either through the code or through a CTRL-N search. When I have the file I found open, I want to see which project and which folder of the project the file is in. I found a way to open the file in Windows Explorer which tells me what I want but I would rather stay in intellij and see the folders on the left expanded to the location of the file. Does this exist in intellij?
Thanks
On the heading of Project Explorer panel their will be a circle with 4 lines inside it.
Press that it will take you to the place where you file is inside the project

I am using PyCharm 2020.1. When I create a new file, PyCharm automatically opens it in the editor. Also when I move a directory, PyCharm opens all the files inside the directory in the editor.
Sometimes it's tens of files opened at once. This behavior is frustrating and I would like to turn it off, but have not been able to find where in Preferences to do so.
Someone please help me figure out how to stop newly created files and files inside moved folders from automatically opening in editor. Thanks.
I don't think you can't open a new file via PyCharm, unless you create it via the Terminal tab on the bottom, for example:
touch test.py
When you move a directory into a new directory, there should be a checkmark on a popup saying "Open moved files in editor", so you probably have that checked.
Would specifically like to edit /etc/hosts without leaving the Intellij window. How can I open this file while working on some arbitrary project in Intellij?
Clicking on the File menu (Left hand corner) then clicking Open does the trick, just like most applications.
To set a shortcut for that File Open click you can click on File then settings (Ctrl+Alt+S) and then under Keymap search for File Open. Right click open and you should see the add shortcut dialog. I'm a bit surprised there isn't a default shortcut for this.
There's a small feature I have been yearning about in intellij idea and I will give it a try in this forum, maybe it is already possible.
In brief: I want a button that opens the working folder of the project I am working on.
Since this is the folder I put my settings files I am doing the following operation dozens of times a day -
open the run/debug configuration.
go to my activbe project tab.
copy the working directory.
open run (win+r).
paste the folder path and press enter.
X dozens of times.
Is there a way to add a button somewhere that opens my working folder?
BTW: I know that in the project settings - External tools - I can add actions. but there is no workingFolder in the macros. is there a way to add the working folder? (eventhough a button would be better)
Thanks a lot.
If you need to manage files, why not do it right from IntelliJ? If you have to go to explorer, right click any file or folder in the project panel, and there's a "Show in Explorer" option in Windows (no default key mapping). There's also "Show Path" (ctrl+alt+F12), which lets you open Explorer to any parent directory of the selected file all the way up to the drive. Finally, "Copy Path" (ctrl+shift+C) will copy the absolute path to the clipboard. (This is in IDEA 10.5, but I know Copy Path has been there a long time.)
