Custom comment markers in intellij - intellij-idea

When you have todo: in your comments, intellij can detect it and show it in the todo list. How can I make some custom markers to be recognized? For example, config:.

Look in Settings, in Editor / TODO. You can set patterns and other options for this feature there.

This is like a TODO. See the official IntelliJ documentation; https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/2016.1/using-todo.html.

Quick insert TODO line

Is it possible to setup IDEA to be able to quick insert // TODO lines? For example keybinding or code completion pattern? I didn't find anything.
Check out Live Templates feature of IntellyJ. I hope it'll satisfy your needs.
Here's a link to tutorial video on how to create one.
Since 1.3 Android Studio ships with a set of live templates.
One of which does exactly what you want.
In order to activate it, simply type todo followed by a tab. Also works with fixme and stopship.
Live Template fixed my problem.

Quick Helper Annotaion in Java Editor

I'm trying to develop a eclipse plugin, which displays a Quick help annotation in the Java Editor.
The Quick Help icon should appear at every place, a type statement is missing in the Java-Code.
I'm a total noob in Eclipse plugin development. I read a few things about it and understand the idea with Extension points but I don't get how to add a annotation in the Eclipse Java editor.
Are there any examples or tutorials available for this problem/topic?
I don't know how to start and appreciate any help or hints.
I finally made it by placing a Marker and specifying a markerResolution for him.

Intellij idea deprecated no strikeout/strikethrough

I'm using IntelliJ IDEA v12. When I import a project, there’s a strikeout/strikethrough line on the method which has the annotation #Deprecated, but I used alt+enter to disable it. So, how can I reactivate this feature? I want to display that strikethrough, thanks!
Open Settings -> Type Inspections to go to inspection settings -> Type Deprecated to find out all deprecated related inspection settings -> Check Deprecated API usage.
IntelliJ had a bug in 2018.3, 2018.2.2 (182.4129.33). It was fixed in builds 191.65, 183.3691.
Setting -Dide.text.effect.new.metrics=false in the .vmoptions fixes the problem.
In addition to Ionghua's answer .....
If you find that IntelliJ is still not striking out deprecated methods, even though you have enabled the inspection as above, check to make sure that your code is not ignoring deprecation warnings with #SuppressWarnings("deprecation").
In addition to longhua's answer... and vegemite4me...
Another possible source for this problem might be custom color themes.
If you are using a custom theme, make sure that it contains strikethrough. I was using monokai-sublime and there is no strikethrough for #Deprecated annotations. When I changed the color theme from monokai to darcula strikethrough worked as expected.
I found that the only thing that worked for me with version 2019.2 192.5728.98, runtime 11.0.3+12-b304.10 was to use Help | Edit VM Options and add -Dide.text.effect.new.metrics=false

How to disable code formatting for some part of the code using comments?

I'd like to selectively disable the IntelliJ IDEA code formatter for a portion of code just like I can in Eclipse. Does IntelliJ support this feature, and if so, how do I use it?
Since version 13 it's possible to wrap the code with
// #formatter:off
...
// #formatter:on
IntelliJ IDEA v.2018+:
File > Settings > Editor > Code Style
IntelliJ IDEA v.2016+:
Preferences > Editor > Code Style
IntelliJ IDEA v.14+:
Preferences > Editor > Code Style > Formatter Control
You can change the formatter control markers, as long as they're in comments.
Ensure formatter markers in comments are enabled, as shown in the following figure:
Note for Carlos' answer of #formatter:off and #formatter:on to work, you may need to enable the preference first:
Discovered via How to config intellij-idea not format some part of the code?
IDEA-56995 Disabled code formatting per region using comments
In xml files, use:
<!-- #formatter:off -->
<!-- #formatter:on -->
Obsolete answer from 2010:
No, it's not possible right now, I've submitted a new issue which you can track.
As a temporary solution you can use external formatter plug-in for IDEA which can utilize Eclipse code formatter (I didn't check whether this particular option is supported).
It's currently not possible to exclude entire files (like regression test data xmls) from formatting. See https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-167112
