I'm having a annoying problem since I update IntelliJ IDEA Community to this version:
IntelliJ IDEA 2017.2
Build #IC-172.3317.76, built on July 15, 2017
JRE: 1.8.0_152-release-915-b5 amd64
JVM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o
Linux 4.8.0-53-generic
There is a problem with "Main Menu/Navigate/Class" action. When a trigger this action using keyboard shortcut or menu access, most of time the "Enter class name" window is showed, but closes immediately.
Sometimes the action works ok, but most of time, not.
I'm using linux Mint 18.2 (Cinnamon).
It's a known issue, please follow it here for updates:
IDEA-173000 Navigate | File and Class popups disappear
Workaround (add the following via Help | Edit Custom VM Options):
-DactionSystem.xWindow.remove.focus.from.nonFocusable.popups=false
Downgrading to 2017.1 version is another option.
UPDATE: the issue is resolved in 2017.2.3 release.
According to the release notes it's fixed in the latest release - 2017.2.3 (build number IU-172.3968.16) - 173000 is in the list: https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/IDEADEV/IntelliJ+IDEA+2017.2.3+Release+Notes?fromIDE
What ultimately worked for me was adding -Dfocus.follows.mouse.workarounds=true to my custom VM options (Help > Edit Custom VM Options).
I found this in https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-173000, mentioned above.
I use a tiling window manager (i3) which I suspect is related.

UPDATE
The bug mentioned in #s0xzwasd's answer has now been fixed in Ij 2020.3.01

Today I updated to Intellij CE 2020.3 (IC-203.5981.155), and the icon in my dock displays like so:
I would assume EAP stands for Early Access Program, but have I chosen (or rather chosen not to leave) the stable update channel, and have never had an EA version of Intellij or any Jetbrains IDE on my computer. Why does the icon display like it does?
More info:
I am using a MacBook Pro running macOS Catalina version 10.15.7 (19H15).
Please follow IDEA-256564 to stay updated. It's already fixed and should be available in the next update.
Scene Builder does not open in my Intellij. I've tried different JDK versions, but I just cant get it to load up in my IDE. It was working before I had to reinstall my OS. I don't get an error or anything, the Scene Builder window is just blank. It works if I run it standalone though.
I'm on Ubuntu 20.04.1. Using JDK 11 and Scene Builder for JDK 11. I tried with JDK 14 and I still get the same issue. I attached an image of the screen I get.
Any help? Intellij asked me to download the Scene Builder kit, then it asked me to download JavaFX. I did. Then I ended up here. JavaFX was included as a global library though so I didn't quite understand that.
What should I do?
You should go to setting-plugins- search for javaFX and install JAvaFX Runtime for Plugins.
Restart again and the problem will be solved.
The solution for me was 'Settings> Plugins> search JavaFX' to enable and disable this plugin, then restart intellij idea
You can run the SceneBuilder from outside Intellij and simply select your FXML, which works better in some cases, because there are some problems with the BuildIn Version (at least on Windows)
You can download it from Gluon.

I am currently using IntelliJ Ultimate.
Build #: 223.8617.56
Runtime version: 17.0.5+1-b653.25 aarch64
VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o.
To fix the missing SceneBuilder issue, I completely disabled the JavaFX Runtime for Plugins plugin and restarted IntelliJ.
When I did that, I received 2 banners to install JavaFX and the proper JDK.
I want to select a new home directory for JDK, as I want to use a newer JDK. However, when selecting NEW -> JDK in the Project SDK settings, a Windows XP style dialog opens up, in which I can only select files and not directories. When I select an arbitrary file in the directory I really want to select, nothing happens.
This is the dialog I get:
This also applies to other projects, I have already invalidated my Caches and I'm sure it has worked once upon a time. This is the result I receive from "About":

Note that I have the same post on the IntelliJ support forum.
Deleting the file ide.general.xml solves the issue. It is not an elegant solution, because this seems to be a bug on the side of IntelliJ (see this ticket).
The problem is, that when syncing settings via the settings repository on Linux and Windows, weird things happen.
I have Intellij IDEA. Below are the details about it.

I have latest scala plugin for IntelliJ installed as well.
But when I try to create the dotty project using the documentation here, I couldn't see the option. Below is the screen shot.
Do I miss any settings?
Choose SBT first, then on the next step you will be able to select Dotty:

Sometimes when running IntelliJ it completely blocks all keyboard inputs in the program. E.g. I can click around a document with the mouse, I can even right click + paste. I cannot, however write anything through the keyboard or navigate with the arrows inside a document or between documents for that matter.
The only keyboard related actions that work seem to be system related; alt + tab, ctrl + alt + delete, caps lock etc. also when tabbing to another window the keyboard works fine, so it is not a hardware issue.
This seem to occur when a popup is active and I tab out of IntelliJ and back in, but I am not certain that this is the case.
I would like to stress that it is not merely the currently open document that I cannot modify, since I CAN insert text and remove it using mouse commands only (the file is not write protected or anything like that), it seem to be a complete block of all keyboard inputs in IntelliJ.
The only workaround I have found is to restart IntelliJ.
I am running Ubuntu 13.10. More or less all projects I work with in IntelliJ are maven projects. It happens roughly once a day when using IntelliJ as main IDE.
This seems to be an IBus issue. The bug is not localized yet but it's clear it is not in IDEA - rather in IBus or possibly in Java X events handling code.
Workarounds:
IBus can be disabled for IDEA by unsetting env. variable XMODIFIERS. So, add the following lines to $IDEA_HOME/bin/idea.sh at almost the end of the file:
...
XMODIFIERS=idea.sh
export XMODIFIERS
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------
# Run the IDE.
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------
...
Have been reported that run ibus-daemon -rd is not recommended as it may cause JVM crash. However, it also seems to work.
http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-78860
I ran into the same issue with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and IDEA 14+. I'm currently running IDEA 14.1.3.
The XMODIFIERS fix seemed to work for a while, but then the issue returned.
Changing Setup->Language->Keyboard input method system from iBus to none did not fix it for me.
What finally worked was switching JDKs from
java version "1.7.0_79"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.5.5) (7u79-2.5.5-0ubuntu0.14.04.2)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.79-b02, mixed mode)
to
java version "1.7.0_75"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_75-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.75-b04, mixed mode)
using
export IDEA_JDK=/home/don/apps/jdk1.7.0_75/
