I'm using the latest version of Rider by JetBrains for my C# projects. I like very much the color scheme of IntelliJ Idea and their shortcuts but my C# code in Rider gets highlighted by 3 dots when the IDE finds a quickfix. I want to change 3 dots rider's highlighting to the highlighting of IntelliJ Idea, or just remove the 3 dots. Do you know guys how can I achieve this ?
rider highlight
intellij highlight
These three dots does not come from a color schema, they are indicating some potential troubles in your code. Namely, it is "Replace built-in type reference with a CLR type name or keyword".
Disable this inspection in "Preferences | Editor | Inspection Settings | Inspection Severity | C#" as shown to get rid of the unwanted warning.

If you want to get rid of other warnings, hover your mouse of "..." and you will see the inspection name. Now, press Shift+Shift and type the inspection name. Click on the appeared option to open this inspection setting.
I have a project opened in IntelliJ and Git is also enabled for the project. What is the issue I am facing is, according to the following image, the red "branch pane" is missing from IDE and the only thing I see is the green area.
And also I see the blue area instead of "Git" it is showing "Version Control". So I need to know how I can get the branch pane back like the attached image.
Your IntelliJ IDEA is too old, it does not have this feature. To show the branches pane you need at least IntelliJ IDEA version 2020.1.
IntelliJ "Problems" view shows only few errors.
Any setting to show all the errors? or is there a limit to number of lines displayed in the Problems view that we can increase?
I'm using Community edition.
PHPStorm has a vertical line on what they call the "right margin" which is set by default to 120 characters or columns...
Given that PSR standards state There MUST NOT be a hard limit on line length; the soft limit MUST be 120 characters; lines SHOULD be 80 characters or less., it'd be nice if I could get another visual indicator at the 80 character mark...
I'm well aware that it says what line/column you're on in the status bar, but I typically hide most panels (status bar included) while coding.
Therefore, is there a way (feature or plugin) that would allow me to add a 2nd vertical line to indicate the 80th column?
It is not currently possible .. and no plugin comes into my mind.
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-99875 -- star/vote/comment to get notified on progress.
P.S. Considering that this is rather PHP/Python specific (other languages do not care about this) .. I would not expect JB to have it implemented in nearest future...
I suggest the following workaround, it works for me on PhpStorm 9.0:
Open Settings page (usually Ctrl+Alt+S), go to Plugins -> Browse Repositories
Find and install BackgroundImage plugin
Restart IDE, it may output an error, something like "unknown protocol d" - don't worry, go forth
Make an image with height=1px, and width=(desired width of additional margin). Give it, say, white background and paint one rightmost pixel to say, black. I took a screenshot of an editor and cropped it in PS, to avoid annoying search and adjustment of the image width. Every change of background image requires to restart PhpStorm.
Open Settings again, goto Other settings -> BackgroundImage
Set Enabled checkbox, browse your created image, and check the FileSystem radio button
Restart IDE again and change the margin and you will get two margins
The image is left-aligned, so when you resize an editor on x-axis (move the splitter between Editor and Project View or File System View, etc.), the margin will remain truthy.
Some side-effects - it appears also on console window, event log, perhaps somewhere else.
If the plugin doesn't work, check out this page (there said that most JetBrains plugins should work on all products on IntelliJ Platform, and some workaround if they does not): http://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/basics/getting_started/plugin_compatibility.html
ADDED: Doesn't work with scaling an editor (Ctrl + MouseWheel) - the scale of the image (fake margin), remains the same and the margin becomes not truthy.
In the latest PHPStorm, this is now possible. This would be PHPStorm 2017.3. The instructions on the ticket mentioned in the accepted answer explains it quite well:
Will be available in the next EAP build. You can set it up at
Settings|Editor|Code Style|Visual guides for all languages or on
"Wrapping and Braces" tab for a specific language ("Other" tab for
XML/HTML). You can change the visual indent guide color at
Settings|Editor|Color Scheme|General|Guides|Visual guides. Please
submit separate reports if you find any problems.
I personally found the setting in Settings|Editor|Code Style|PHP|Wrapping and Braces|Visual guides. It should be there for every language.
I recently converted to IntelliJ, love it.
How do I get panels, such as log output, IDETalk, etc. to wrap their contents?
IntelliJ is now at version 2016 and in this version at least wrapping is supported.
It is the squiggly line icon that is selected in this image:
Soft wrapping for Editor and Console has been implemented in IDEA 10 (which is not released yet). It's not possible in IDEA 9, sorry.
