I am coming from Dreamweaver into PhpStorm 8.0.2 (on Windows 8.1).
How do you set it up so that when selecting a variable, you do not select the dollar ($)? This needs to include variables separated by underscores.
I have tried the various settings to do with CamelHumps, and had mixed results, but still not ideal.
For example, double-clicking the variable $foo_bar, I would like it to select foo_bar.
With "Honor CamelHumps", it will select $foo_bar.
Without "Honor CamelHumps", it will select foo or bar depending on which word you double-click on.
File | Settings | Editor | General | Smart Keys | PHP -> Select variable name without '$' sign on double click
It's now fixed - there is an option to allow selecting of $ in variable names - see https://stackoverflow.com/a/42624161/4879058
you should click exactly underscore sign when double clicking to select foo_bar

When programming in Go, I tend to use assignment statement using the operator := often.
But I find it difficult to type these two characters :=. Is there any short cut or a autocomplete way to type := ?
GoLand or IntelliJ IDEA with Go plugin has a handy shortcut to declare a new variable:
Type : where do you want to define a variable.
Press Tab to apply Live Template.
You can configure an abbreviation or expand shortcut via Preferences/Settings | Editor | Live Templates | Go | Variable declaration.
How to use automatic line wrap and code formatting together in PhpStorm? My PhpStorm version is 2019.3.1
My SQL statements and my Strings look like the pic below.
What do I have to do, that the automatic wrapped lines do NOT jump to column 1 in the editor?
What do I have to do, that the automatic wrapped lines do NOT jump to column 1 in the editor?
Configure it accordingly (affects soft wrapped lines only, obviously): Settings/Preferences | Editor | General | Soft Wraps | Use original line's indent for wrapped parts
I have two java source files. Both represent the same class (semantically), but they were formatted differently.
For example, one of them contains the following line:
return Boolean.valueOf(Boolean.getBoolean("abc"));
While in the second file it looks like 2 lines:
return Boolean.valueOf(
Boolean.getBoolean("abc"));
In both cases, when I apply formatting (Ctrl+Alt+L), these lines do not change.
Is it possible to format them in some canonical way: that is, to get the same code if the only difference is formatting?
Equivalently: is there any way to remove all ignorable whitespace? Such a 'dried-out' program would then be easily restored using 'Reformat code'.
You should be able to do this if you turn off "Wrapping and Braces | Keep when reformatting | Line Breaks" in the Java code style settings.
Go to File > Settings > Ediotor > Code Style > java
in tab Wrapping and Braces uncheck line breaks
Apply and make (Ctrl+Alt+L) again.
I know how to convert indent for a single file. I go to edit -> convert indent -> space/tab.
But I want to do this for all files under a directory.
I try click on a directory and then go to edit -> convert indent, but the options are grayed out.
You can use the shortcut Ctrl+ALT+L (Windows/Linux) or ⌥⌘+L (MAC OS X) and select the Rearrange entries option to reformat the code in the current file or reformat a module or directory.
You can also Right-click a module, file, or directory from the context menu and select Reformat Code and also select the Rearrange entries option.
This will convert the indents for all files/directories selected:
This works on most of the Jetbrains IDES (iDea, PyCharm, WebStorm, RubyMine, and so on.)
It seems there is no such dedicated option in IntelliJ, but you could just work around it using a "low-level" Replace All action.
Open the Edit → Find → Replace in Files... dialog
In case you want to convert spaces to tabs, you should
Enter in the Find field (i.e. four spaces (or whatever number of spaces the project is currently indented with))
Press the Regex search modifier (Alt + X)
Enter \t in the Replace field
NB: In case you have valid strings with 4+ spaces in them, they will get replaced too. In most use cases, however, this is not happening.
In case you want to convert tabs to spaces, you should do the same as above, but swap the Find and Replace field contents
NB: Again, if you have valid strings with tabs in them, they will get replaced too. I haven't had this use case, because I've only needed to convert in the opposite direction.
You will probably also want to set a File mask in order not to replace spaces in code-irrelevant files
I have the following gray line that limits the number of characters a single line can accomodate:
I'd like to change the line length (this fill probably affect where this line is currently shown right now) for different files: for js, php files etc one line length, for HTML template files another. Is it possible? If not, how can I change at least for all file types?
This is now possible as the bug linked by #LazyOne has been resolved. You can now set different right margins for different programming languages.
The setting is under Settings | Editor | Code Style | <Your language> on the Wrapping and Braces tab at the very top of the list.
Default value can be set at
Settings/Preferences | Editor | Code Style --> Right margin (columns)
Since end of 2014 (after IDEA-59662 ticket was implemented) most languages have an option to adjust that value in language-dedicated section. For example: PHP
For unsupported languages .. or those that do not have such option -- you may try going with .editorconfig file and EditorConfig Support plugin -- should work.
For those who are from 2018:
Settings/Preferences | Editor | Code Style | Hard Wrap At
Or Settings/Preferences | Editor | Code Style | Your Technology(ex. PHP) | Hard wrap at
