I'm using PHP Storm in my work. And there was one feature that made code more readable. But it gone somewhere and I can't bring it back. It lookde like
Thanks a lot
Go to Settings -> Editor -> General -> Appearance
and find checkbox Show method separators

I'm editting a .tsx-file and are reaching upon this bonkers file-formatting:
... If I enlarge the window a bit, then it makes more sense:
But I would still like to change it, so value and onClick aren't aligned all that way to the right. Ideally, it would try to align them with the opening bracket (as they do), unless the opening bracket is more than 35 characters, from the line start. Or something like that.
Now, I assume that it's the TypeScript-formatting that dictates the Code Style for a .tsx-file. But when I open the settings: Editor >> Code Style >> TypeScript then there are BAZILLIONS of settings.
Which leads me to three questions:
Does anyone know what I need to change, so object-attributes doesn't follow the opening-brackets width?
Could I find the name of what I'm looking for, in some smart way? I tried hovering over the massive space, hoping that the little yellow light-bulb could shine some light on, what I was after.
Are there any presets, to be found somewhere? So I don't need to engineer a new Code Style, if I dislike the default.
Make sure that the following option is disabled:
Settings (Preferences on macOS)
Editor | Code Style | TypeScript | Wrapping and Braces
Function call arguments: Align when multiline
NOTE: It is possible that the default value has been changed somewhere since the previous version as I have seen a few questions for the same option but different language (PHP and JavaScript).
HINT 1: Did you know that you can paste your own code in the preview area and start changing options to see how they will affect it? It helps locating the right option a lot.
HINT 2: There is a special popup that shows formatting rules applied to the code. It does not show all possible options but can give you a hint what to look for. To invoke it:
Use Help | Find Action... (or Action tab on Search Everywhere -- they use to be different popups but are using the same popup nowadays)
Type adjust to filer actions
Select and invoke "Adjust code style settings" action
It will give you a popup with applicable rules (it's a limited set: may not list all).
An example for PHP code:
I've just started to play araound with PHPStorm and I can't get the live templates to work. For example there's one for a public function..'pubf' then tab to expand however when I tab mine out it looks like this...
<pubf></pubf>
What's going on? Is there a setting I need to enable to get it to work?
Thanks
Just for a little more clarity:
Even though you're under the PHP branch, you still need to apply the abbreviation to an application. Click the "Define" link and check the PHP box.
It was a question of scope for the template, just needed to select the appropriate file types.
Try:
Settings / Emmet and changing the default 'Expand abbreviation with' from tab to say custom
Make sure the context is selected underneath your template text. There is a small 'Change' link there where you set the context. I had to choose all contexts.
I have a file from our repository where I ran auto-indent (because it was a mess), and now the whole file is marked by blue changebars (down the right hand side of the editor window), making it difficult to find my changes.
I am already ignoring whitespace changes in the diff window (as described here: Intellij and changes tab), is there a way to also do this in the editor window?
I couldn't find a way to completely ignore whitespaces, but IntelliJ (I'm using version 2016) lets you set an option to color whitespace-only changes differentely:
Editor -> General -> Different color for lines with whitespace-only modifications
which helps tremendously.
At the moment [idea 13.5] it seems that is not possible to ignore spaces in the standard editor. You can open a support ticket
We also faced this in the company due the different codestyles used, at the end we settle for:
setting a common codestyle that everyone editing the code should [actually must] follow
reformat the whole codebase to the given codestyle
recommit the formatted code [without any addition or deletion, just the reformat]
It took just a bit of time, but at the end now we are working far better. In this way from that moment onward, we would have all the time the code that would aesthetically the same trough next versions.
You can completely disable the highlight of whitespace modified lines in :
Settings -> Editor -> Color Scheme -> VSC -> Editor Gutter -> Whitespace-modified lines
And then uncheck the background color :
Essentially, you want Intellij to use the --ignore-all-space or --ignore-space-change upon a merge.
My developer team also deals with this challenge because we have different code formatting preferences. The result is every merge is painful for no reason. The team loves being able to have their code formatting, but this negates it.
As of now there is no solution. Intellij has the technology to ignore whitespace, so fixing this is really just adding a check box on the merge diff screen or even in the version control settings.
There is a feature requests IDEA-107714

Try this,
View --> Active Editor --> Show whitespaces
this is guaranteed to solve your problem
After installing the new Eclipse Indigo, the outdent does not work anymore when I press shift+tab on a line. Is there any setting which activates this again?
Problem still actual for Eclipse Kepler
in Main Menu -> Window -> Preferences -> PHP -> Formatter -> {your formatter profile} -> Edit -> Identation -> General Settings:
change tab policy to Spaces and indentation size to 4 (or any desired amount).
Source: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=210108
Okay, so I am currently using Eclipse Luna Service Release 1a (4.4.1) and I was experiencing this problem too after switching from whitespace tabbing (4 spaces) instead of standard tab spacing.
The problem for me was that the area I was trying to de-tab/outdent/shift-tab (or whatever you want to call it) had a mix of 4xspaces and actual tabs in it.
Check if this is the case for you. If it is, you should do the conversion from one to the other. To do this, highlight everything in the effected area, then CTRL+F and replace all instances of however many spaces you are using, with "\t".
Make sure that the "Regular expressions" flag is checked.
SHIFT+TAB only seems to work correctly if only tabs or only spaces are used for indentation and won't do anything at all if there is a mix.
Also, naturally, ensure that the correct settings are applied for your tab policy in Main Menu -> Window -> Preferences -> PHP -> Formatter -> {your formatter profile} -> Edit -> Identation -> General Settings.
The functionality works fine and as intended for me since I did this. Make sure to restart the IDE as I have observed that it will subtly tend to stick to old tabbing habits in strange ways if you do not.
It may have something to do with the formatter settings (preferences->java->code style->formatter). I've experienced today the same problem on Eclipse Juno and managed to solve it by setting the indentation size to 4 and the tab size to 4 in the indentation tab. It might be worth to give it a go and play with these settings.
For those who none of the other answers worked, just try to install PDT (Php Development Tools). It has the right hot keys for performing this action. I solved this way.
I've just upgraded to IntelliJ IDEA 10, and it has started doing something extremely annoying. While writing documentation in a .txt file it has started giving me word suggestions as I type. This is, instead of helping, just irritating me while also consuming system resources. I haven't been able to find a way to turn this off in the Settings window. Perhaps there's a way of telling Idea not to do this for certain file types or in code comments?
Goto
Settings/Preferences -> General -> Editor -> Code Completion
and untick Show the parameter info popup to something like 1000 (ms), then it give you time to carry on typing before the pop up.
Or disable settings such as Show suggestions as you type
For intelliJ 2016.2.2, it defaults to auto insert code suggestions which is very annoying. Even when typing space, it overrides what I'm typing and puts something random in. Here's the solution:
Go to Settings > Editor > General > Code Completion
Then, UNCHECK the box that says "Insert selected variant by typing dot, space, etc." See screenshot below
