There is a bug in latest intellij that "escape" no longer closes popup "diff" windows such as
compare to clipboard
compare with Git
show History
I would like to do a workaround by closing the window via something like Option-F4 or Control-W. But where is the Keymap entry for closing these windows? I have searched on close and there is no entry.
The last fallback is to go the snail way - to mouse over to click on the red "close window" button: but any mouse movements are slower than a keyboard shortcut.
Updated information Note: the normal "close window" keys (i am on Mac) do not work.
Here is the IJ bug entry https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-142932
Another update Here is key bindings: notice there is NO Close Editor Tab instead only Close All
I'm using OS X Yosemite and pressing Cmd + F4 has the desired effect of closing the window. Cmd + F4 is bound to Window / Editor Tabs / Close.
The short answer:
The related key binding is "Close" under "Editor Tabs" menu,
Then you can customize the keyborad shortcut as you want.
File > Settings > keymap >

I want to jump through files in the project window using the up / down buttons. Now I press the down button, then press the enter button and the focus goes to the code editor window. But I do not want the focus to go away, I want to continue jumping through the files, pressing the down button and enter when I want to open the file. I can do this using this combination: down arrow, enter, F12, down arrow, down arrow, enter, F12 ...
Is there any way to tweak this to avoid using F12?
I'm using Intellij idea 2020.3
I'd suggest reassigning shortcut combination Main Menu | Window | Active Tool Window | Jump to Last Tool Window to anything more suitable for you, e.g. ESC and be sure that you don't use the same shortcut for other actions and operations.
Is there any default keyboard shortcut to close all tabs except the active one? It can be done by right-clicking the tab and choosing Close Others but I'd like to do this using only my keyboard.
ctrl+shift+a and write Close Others. Select the one with Editor Close Actions.
Or assign it your own shortcut.
Open Settings > Keymap. Search for Close others (or find it under Main menu > Window > Editor tabs.
It's not possible to access the tab context menu using the keyboard.
There's an open issue against IntelliJ for this.
Their suggestion is to add that action (tab > close others) to a quick list and you can then invoke the quick list action via a keyboard shortcut.
How do i trigger the cmd + click behaviour (Go to Class, go to declaration etc) in IntelliJ when my current keymap uses Eclipse (MacOS)?
I'm currently switching from Eclipse/STS to IntelliJ. So far, i've changed the keymap to use Eclipse (MacOS), so most of the familiar keyboard shortcuts i use still works.
control + click does the functionality that i want using Eclipse (MacOS) keymap but this also triggers system behaviour of right click, so menu pops out the same time that the go to class/variable triggers. Is there a way i can set or use cmd + click to trigger the desired behavior?
Go to Preferences > Keymap.
You have to copy the Eclipse (MacOS) keymap to a new name, in order to make changes: select the Eclipse (MacOS) keymap, press the Copy button and give it a new name, e.g. Eclipse (MacOS) 2.
Then click into the filter field, enter declaration, then in the tree area do right-click on the Main menu > Navigate > Declaration line in order to activate the context menu. The result should look like this:
Select Add Mouse Shortcut from the context menu, a dialog opens. Perform into this dialog the key + click combination you wish to add, in your case cmd + click:
Confirm the new Mouse shortcut with Ok, then close the Preferences dialog also with Ok or Apply. Done.
Note: you can delete the ctrl + click mouse shortcut, if you wish to not use it by mistake, by selecting Remove ^Button1 Click in the context menu.
I love intellij's file tab but I can't seem to find a way to shortcut closing a tab similar to the behavior of ctrl + w in chrome. I can't find the option in the keymap editor. Am I missing something or is this not implemented?
I found this page but it doesn't include the action name. I would use ctrl + f4 but my window manager has that reserved and I would rather change it.
Open Settings by hitting Ctrl+Alt+S
Click: Keymap
Search for: Close
Under Main menu > Window > Editor Tabs, find Close.
Right-click and click Remove Ctrl+F4.
Right click and click Add Keyboard Shortcut
Add your new custom Keyboard Shortcut.
IntelliJ will tell you if the shortcut clashes with another shortcut performing a different action.
Alternatively, open/edit your Linux Window Manager Settings and remove the Ctrl+F4 mapping to allow other programs like IntelliJ to make use of it.
For PC-based keyboards, the shortcut to close tabs is CTRL + F4,
not to be confused with ALT+F4.
Current tab can be closed with:
Ctrl + F4
Works on Intellij Ultimate 2016.3
On mac OS, Intellij 2018.3 version, 'Command + W' does close the file tab.
As we can see in the image in this discussion:
Go in Settings >> Keymap >> Main menu >> Other >> [Close Active Editor] and change to Ctrl+W.
I'm on version 2020.1 and this has changed to Ctrl+4
What is the cloud9 keyboard shortcut to move between the editor tab (#1) and the terminal console (#2)?
I am aware that I can open a terminal tab and switch to it using the keyboard, but I want to see both the editor and terminal in one view.
It is ALT + S on the current version of Cloud9
To make certain keyboard shortcut work on c9.io in Chrome, which would otherwise do something else like close tab or reload page, click the menu button of Chrome > More Tools > Create Application Shortcuts....
Now the IDE is an actual program and all the default browser shortcuts are disabled. Ctrl + W (Close tab) and Ctrl + Shift + Q (Close Chrome) and F5 (Refresh) and the likes can now be used as keyboard shortcuts :)
To add on #Kronenbourg's exact answer (which IMHO should be accepted) - as of May 2015:
Shift + Esc / Esc - Goto workspace (files tree) / Exit workspace (to the last place, Editor/Terminal)
ALT + S - switch between code and terminal
In conjunction with CMD + { / CMD + }, which navigate right/left in current context (Editor, terminal) tabs, you should be able to reach anywhere with the keyboard.
Also useful in the context is CMD + O to open file.
HTH
It's Shift+ESC on open source, but unfortunately this doesn't work on c9.io.
I accidentally found out that ctrl+~ works to switch between terminal and editing window and then back. Maybe it's not the most convenient shortcut but it works.
Alt+s
This shortcut is listed in the top menu, under:
Window > Navigation
