At the time tracking tab, there is a Add work item type to the project... button. How to remove, or at least, edit added work item types?
Seems pretty straightforward to me as there's remove button on the same tab:

Is there a way to hide a field in TFS2015? We just needed to hide an unused field since it doesn't server us purpose anymore but we don't want to delete it.
If you just mean you don't want to see the filed in your workitem.
You could delete the control in layout page (Need TFS Power Tools installed).
After this your teams won't be able to see the field in work item page any more.
However this filed still could be used/filtered in work item query. If the hide in your question means this. Unfortunately, no this function for now. You may have to delete the filed instead.
I'm working on a huge project that has thousands of TODO items. So when I go to the TODO tool window in IntelliJ IDEA it shows all of them. How can I search for a specific one?
If you want to define which TODOs should be found, you are able to set filter and patterns.
In TODO panel click on Filter TODO Items and select Edit Filters
Here you are able to set filters and patterns which should be used. More about that is on their site https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/2016.2/defining-todo-patterns-and-filters.html.
Keep in mind that after you define a new filter, Intellij will start with Indexing (long proccess for huge projects:( )
Also Intellij IDEA TODO tool lets you select from which part you want to see a TODOs (top bar on uploaded image) or you can simply show all TODOs and start typing (classic searching).
First, expand all the todos (view the side menu or by pressing CTRL+numpad +. Then just start typing, and IntelliJ will take you to the first place the string you searched for appears, be it a name of a folder, file or the text of the todo comment itself. Like any other search in IntelliJ, you can use the ↑ and ↓ keys to jump between items matching your search string.
If you are using a mac, keys ⌘6 (command key and number 6 key) will do the magic.
Press alt+6 to search *TODO* comment.
You might also want to view only the TODOs you have added in your current branch. You can use the Default Changelist tab for this:
The Scope Based tab also gives you some useful options for narrowing down the TODOs too:
This is not the exact answer to the given question, but it helped for me, so maybe it will also help someone else :)
What I haven't notice earlier is that TODO Tool Window/tab has some child tabs on the top. For me, the most usefull one, was the tab „Current file”. I was made aware of this feature after looking in official IDE documentation:
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/todo-tool-window.html
I'm really impressed with the autocomplete feature of the IntelliJ IDE so far.
What I'd like to do, is cycle through the autocomplete suggestions I get when hitting Ctrl + Space without using the arrow keys (↑, ↓).
The reason for this is that I prefer to keep my fingers on the home row (I'm using IntelliJ's Vim emulator additionally).
For example, how would I select sortThis instead of sorted without using the arrow keys or the mouse?
Peter Gromov's answer brought me to a satisfying solution:
In IntelliJ's settings, for Keymap → Editor Actions → Down I set a custom shortcut: Ctrl + J.
This way I can cycle forward through the suggestions.
Setting a shortcut for Down with Selection or Scroll Line Down in the IdeaVim-specific shortcuts did not affect the selection of autocomplete suggestions though.
The answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/9713306/2370679 led me to discover that Ctrl+n & Ctrl+p allow navigation of the auto-complete options without having to modify any settings
For macOS the IDE will give a hint that "^↑ and ^↓ will move caret up and down in the editor". These clearly do not work.
There are a few extra steps that are needed after following #matthias-braun's solution.
Here is the full list of step that I use:
Go to Preferences -> Keymap
Expand Editor Actions (not Plug-ins -> IdeaVim)
Select Down
Click the pencil icon or right-click
Select Add Keyboard Shortcut
Press the shortcut (I use ^N)*
Repeat for 3-6 for Up (I use ^P)
Click Ok**
Go to Preferences -> Other Settings -> Vim Emulation
In the drop-down under the Handler column for the row containing Down, select Vim***
Do the same thing for Up
* If you are warned about the key binding already existing then remove it. You can always reset back to the defaults by clicking the little cog icon up the very top to the right of the drop-down menu.
** The Vim Emulation doesn't seem to be populated correctly until you reopen the Preferences.
*** I'm not sure why the Handler should be Vim. This seems backwards to me but it works.
If you're able to scroll up/down in editor with some IdeaVIM-specific shortcuts, they should also work in the completion list.
In this particular case, I'd just type another "t" so that "sortThis" becomes selected (and the only) variant.
I have done the same thing with mapping the arrows but in a more logical way:
I mapped them that when I press 'Alt' 'J' is left, 'L' is right, 'I' is up, and 'k' is down. that way I can have easy access to the arrows while my fingers are on the home row and I don't need to move them nearly as much...
I'm posting it just so people who search it on google can have that idea.
I know that I can declare actions in plugin.xml that specify style="pulldown" in order to make a pulldown style toolbar button, but I want to be able to do it programatically, using the IToolBarManager and IContributionItem interfaces.
I've looked through the interfaces, and the implementations of various things in eclipse, but I can't see how I'd do it. Ideally I want to add such a toolbar item from an IEditorActionBarContributor implementation.
Anyone got any ideas?
In answer to my own question, you need to create an Action object, and then call setMenuCreator on the action. Then when you add the action to the toolbar you'll get a drop down menu.
I'm using winforms and vb.net.
When I right click on a textbox I get the copy/paste/etc popup menu. This is ok. But How can I add something to this menu, and where/how would I intercept the event when one would click on the Item I add to it?
This context menu is baked into Windows, there is no documented way to alter it. Nor is there a message that you could trap to hack the menu. Replacing it is certainly an option, check my answer in this thread for sample code.
Be careful with this, stuff gets added to this menu in different Windows versions. Like "Insert Unicode character" in Win7. You definitely want to avoid this if it is likely that your product will run in an Eastern Asian country.
You'll have to add your own menu if you don't want to use the default.
You'll have to replace the existing default functions with your own code.
