Imaging the situation when you writing some code and then you wish to continue your work in the terminal. Alt + F12 and you are in the terminal. After 1 sec you wish to continue to work under your code. So you need some shortcut that allows you return back to the code window (I would like to avoid using the mouse). What should I press for this case?
Terminal has an option to override IDE shortcuts which is enabled by default, this is done so that you can use common shortcuts in the terminal applications.
If you disable this option, you can use Esc to get the focus back to the editor, otherwise it will be intercepted and can be used in the apps running in the terminal tool window.
Shift+Esc will hide the Terminal tool window and move the focus back to the editor no matter if the option mentioned above is enabled or not.
For all the other cases Esc will work fine as mentioned in my other answer.

On mac in NetBeans 8.2 I have a panel with a run button.
It's a bit strange to me after Visual Studio that there is no Stop button there. Is there a simple way to add it?
It should do the same as Shift+command+fn+delete or Stop Build/Run
It's a bit tricky to restart it every time to test my changes.
I don't think it is possible to easily do what you want.
The only place the Stop icon/button appears in NetBeans is in the Output window, and that is not available for reuse elsewhere, so NetBean's View > Toolbars > Customize functionality won't be of any use.
However....it is trivial to specify a shortcut key for the action associated with the Run > Stop Build/Run menu entry:
In NetBeans select Tools > Options
Click the Keymap icon. All the actions will be listed, along with their shortcuts.
Type Stop in the Search field to locate the Stop Build/Run action.
For the listed action named Stop Build/Run click the ellipsis and select Edit... from the popup menu.
The cursor will move to the Shortcut field. You can now select any available shortcut. For example, in the screen shot below I pressed the ALT key, and then selected ALT+T from the drop menu of available shortcuts.
Then, you can just submit ALT-T from the keyboard to terminate a running application, instead clicking the Stop button in the Output window, or selecting Run > Stop Build / Run.
I know that you were asking for a toolbar solution, but in the absence of one perhaps a keyboard shortcut is a viable alternative.
I googled but have not found any solving documentation/thread regarding this:
Is there a way to set keyboard shortcut to go full screen in Webstorm Terminal tool window from Terminal window?
I know shortcut shift+Command+' but that doesn't work for me inside terminal. I know by double clicking it you can toggle it to full screen but wondering that is it possible to set keyboard shortcut to do it as I do this operation often.
Try the "Maximize tool window" command in the menu - Window->Active Tool Window->Maximize tool window
Or from terminal tool menu - Resize-> Maximize tool window
Warning! The following shortcut only works if "Override IDE shortcuts" option is disabled
To map a shortcut to this, open the Preferences dialog and type "Maximize tool window" to search the settings. It should find a match in the keymap section, and you can then use it to assign a shortcut.
It will warn you if you already have something assigned to your choice.
Warning! The following option will cause some problems in Terminal, for example, editing in vim (Esc key) etc.
Also, you can to checkout the "Override IDE shortcuts" setting in the Terminal section of the Preferences. This is enabled by default - I turn it off and find it resolves a lot of niggles I have with using the terminal. The shortcut above only works if it's disabled.
In Mac cmd+shift+fn+12 will do the trick
I mostly like zen mode - cmd(ctrl)+K,Z

Double press 'escape' from anywhere will bring you back to editor tab.
Is there a shortcut for focusing the Filter box in tool windows, specifically the Change Log?
See the attached screenshot to know which field I'm talking about. I searched the net and key map, but found nothing like that.
I have confirmed at Jetbrains that unfortunately it's not possible yet: http://devnet.jetbrains.com/message/5520523#5520523
Just start typing with the focus inside the tool window. IDEA invokes the search automatically. To select the item, press Enter. To cancel, press Esc.
This feature is called Tool Window Speed Search.
How can I exit fullscreen mode in Code::Blocks editor.
I was unable to find keyboard shortcut (using Google and searching in documentation).
I'm running Codeblocks on Ubuntu inside Virtual Box.
Aha! Shift+F11 does not work on some versions of Ubuntu. Use Alt+V to bring up the view menu, use the down arrow to move down to the Full Screen option and press the space bar.
Try shift+F11. It works for me.
Go to search-bar on start menu or run menu(press win key+ r) in Windows 7
Then type "regedit" without quotes, it will open registry editor.
Then click on Console folder, then look for where Program Files_CodeBlocks_cb_console_runner.exe is written.
Then on the right side box you'll see various icon names. > select the one that reads Full Screen > delete it.
Now you console output window will be changed to normal mode.
Run you program etc again to confirm.
Alt+M will do it. I have tested it.
I'm using Intellij IDEA 9.0.2
After each make, if i have errors, window "messages Make" is stealing focus from the main editor. Do you know how to correct this?
There is no way to change this behavior in the configuration. There is a keyboard shortcut which allows you to change focus to specific 'windows' within IDEA.
CTRL+SHIFT+TAB
CTRL is probably replaced with CMD on Mac and Super (windows key) on Unix. This will allow you to manually switch back to the editor tab of your choice, or any other window for that matter.
ESC does the trick for me in intelli 12.
