I'm new to IntelliJ, coming from NetBeans. In NetBeans, on the bottom left side of the window, under the list of files in the project, there is a list of methods/fields in the current class.
With IntelliJ, I found that same window using CTRL+F12, but it's a popup. I'd like it to sit permanently on the bottom left instead. How can I do that?
You can open it by View->Tools windows->Structure
Alternatively you can press ALT+7 (Tested on Ubuntu).
ALT+7 (⌘7 on Mac) shall show up Structure which lists all the methods of current class open in editor.
You can get familiar with IntelliJ IDEA from this official tutorial

Am new to IntelliJ IDEA (am using 2017.1.3)...
By accident when I was debugging a sample unit test, I accidentally detached the Debugger's Variables tab from the entire IDE - its floating now. Is there a way to reattach this to be at the bottom and side by side of the Debug tab (like it used to be)? I tried a bunch of different approaches and when I hit my breakpoint it still floats (like a modal) outside IntelliJ IDEA. Can IntelliJ's views be customized (kind of like Eclipse's Perspectives and Views)? It seems like JetBrains calls views: tabs and calls Perspective: active window. Is IDEA customizable like Eclipse?
Attached is a screenshot of my plight...
Inside the window frame, grab the tab that says "Variables" with your mouse. Drag it into the debugger panel.
Sometimes I close folder/package in Project Tool Window and then I should click every folder in it to open them . How to avoid this and open all folders/packages quickly?
* on numpad
Also see IDEA guide about Title bar context menu and customize project window as you need.
Navigate to any folder / package by name! Use the shortcut Shift+Ctrl+N(on Mac ⇧+⌘+N) in the pop-up window type name of folder / package, and end of name add /, for example src/. See here guide for more understanding.
Use the great feature Speed Search for quick navigation:
And also use shortcut Alt+1 to open, Shift+Esc to hide Project Tool Window.
after every press numpad * folders will be expaned more and more
Can someone tell me how to open two or more file editor in eclipse kepler?
In before version like helios it can be open by shortcut ctrl + 8.
Which looks something like this in helios
But in kepler I am not able to do this.
Open your file and then Window -> New Editor
I see that in Kepler this feature hasn't a shortcut binding anymore. You can make this yourself by going to Preferences -> General -> keys and search for "new editor". Then click Binding and press the shortcut you want.
You can achieve this indirectly, like first opening both the files then click on your file header in your editor and just drag towards the right.
Eclipse will automatically creates two seperate views like you have shown.
Window / New Editor opens a second editor. It does not seem to have a default key binding.
When the second editor is open drag the tab to open the windows side by side.
What command is Ctrl + 8 bound to in your workspace ? I've looked at 3.8.2 but can't find it (even though I do vaguely remember doing something like this).
There is a way.
Window -> Editor -> Clone
Drag out window to console and it will divide in two parts ..then put both editor side by side.
I'm developing two GEF plugin and one RCP eclipse plugin, I have the next problem:
I have one plugin with multitab editor and i would like to open the editor of plugin on first tab and open the editor of second plugin on second tab.
I mean if I open the file in first tab it uses the editor A, but if I open the same file in second tab, it uses the editor B of second tab.
The rcp pluging only serves as a base for GEF plugins.
is it possible?
regards
I haven't tried it, but you can use the extension org.eclipse.ui.editors.documentProviders in order to implement your logic. Here is a link of the eclipse online help.
EDIT: The problem you would have is to synchronize the both instances, when you open them.Or you can use one with change listeners
I have just installed IntelliJ 9.0.2 on a machine running 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04.
How do I get another window to put on my second screen?
I would like to have both an editor and some tool windows on both screens.
All 'windows' inside of IntelliJ other than the code editor tabs have a "Float" option which pops open an independent window which you can drag to anywhere on your screen. This will allow you to manage your IDEA windows however you like.
IntelliJ also allow you to open multiple projects at once. When opening a project with one already opened, you are prompted as to wether you would like it in your current window or a "New Instance". If you choose new instance, it will open up a completely new IntelliJ with the other project in it. This will work for you if you have many projects you work on at once.
IntelliJ 14 and onwards you can select the settings cog and tick floating mode to detach menus, or drag editor tabs off the main window to detach them
If you're running on OSX you'll need to make sure it's not treating the screens as separate spaces, otherwise they'll snap back onto the same window as the main editor when switching between windows.
To do this untick Displays have separate Spaces in the Mission Control System Preferences.
IntelliJ 10 will have draggable & dockable editor tabs. A very nice feature. It's already present in the early access versions.
