Jetbrains changed the toolbars in IntelliJ 13.
The Navigate Back & Forward arrows, shown here, used to be in the top toolbar and easily clickable.
Now the only way I can find to access these fields is to go to Navigate -> Back or Navigate -> Forward.
Does anyone know of a way to add these back/forward locations into an always visible toolbar like they were located in IntelliJ 12?
For some reason the toolbar is not visible by default.
In the View menu, select Toolbar. That should fix it.
I am using Idea 13 and my toolbar already has these buttons:
The icon groups are:
file | undo/redo | cut/copy/paste | font size | back/forward | compile/run | vcs | config | help | jira | tasks
You should be looking at the back/forward buttons in the 5th group.
If you want to make the toolbar visible, it's one of the checkable options on the view menu.
IntelliJ IDEA 15
Show toolbar
Method 1
View > Toolbar
Method 2
Press Shift 2 times > write "toolbar" and click on the "switch button" to change "OFF" in "ON":
The toolbar already contains the "Back" and "Forward" buttons.
Configure toolbar
Method 1
File > Settings... > Appearance & Behavior > Menus and Toolbars > Main Toolbar > select one row and click on "Add After..." if you want to add a new button (E.g.: if you accidentally removed the Forward button and you want it back)
Method 2
Right click on the toolbar > Customize Menus and Toolbars...
Use the approach that is described in Method 1
To enable toolbar in intellij 2019.3,
Just go to the "View" tab and check-enable "Toolbar"
*be noted that shortcut keys(ctrl+alt+ left/right) are not working
Here is just a reference image, where to find the top right bar in the settings.
(Note: This is PyCharm)
The Conan's answer helped me with the same issue. 2Conan - make your comment as an answer. It helps with TS issue. Just for sure posting his answer here ...
OK, you can do this. Turn the toolbar on, with View > Toolbar. Right click it, and choose Customize Menus and Toolbars. In the Navigation Bar Toolbar folder, add the icons from Main menu > Navigate > Back / Forward, choose OK, then go and turn off the toolbar with View > Toolbar again.

I would like the debugger menu (with the step over and step into etc) buttons up in the top menu next to the run/debug/stop buttons. Is there any way to make this happen? I can move then entire debugging pane up top. But that is not what I want. I just want the icons up top like other IDE's have.
this is a different question than How do I move the toolbar in IntelliJ?
I am not asking how to move the existing toolbar, I'm asking how to add the debug buttons to the toolbar up top.
It's not possible at the moment. Feel free to create feature request on YouTrack: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/IDEA.
2022 UPDATE
It is possible now as JetBrains has added highly-customizable functionality for controlling commands in menus and toolbars.
For Windows/Linux: File | Settings | Appearance & Behavior | Menus and Toolbars
For Mac: IntelliJ IDEA | Preferences | Appearance & Behavior | Menus and Toolbars

I am using Intellij Idea 2017.2.4 and two buttons on the bottom toolbar have disappeared. The two buttons are "Run" (Alt+4) and "Debug" (Alt+5). I can find them in the pop-up menu in the bottom left corner of Idea either and pressing Alt+4 and Alt+5 doesn't work even though the default keymap setup has not been changed.
Is there a way to get them back without having to reinstall Idea?
It looks like they re-appear on the bottom toolbar and in the pop-up menu when I right-click a file and select either run or debug. The key bindings work again as well.
In IntelliJ IDEA, I want to show a most recently used tab after dragging a tab like eclipse. For example,
a.java
b.java
c.java(Current)
...
d.java(Previous) -- hidden by dropdown
In case 'c.java' was dragged, the editor shows 'a.java' instead of 'd.java'.
I want it to behave same as 'Activate most recently opened' setting for closing tabs. But it doesn't work for dragging in case the previous tab is hidden by a dropdown menu. Is there any setting for it?
No, there is no setting for it.
I can't figure out how to re-open the tab on the left (solution viewer) in IntelliSense Idea.
Anyone know ?
In the left bottom corner you will find a small icon. You can either move your mouse over it and select Project or click on this icon to toggle the visibility of all tabs (which you can click on to open the corresponding view).
You can also use the shortcut Alt + 1 to toggle the Project View.
Is it possible to run IntelliJ Idea in a true full screen mode on a MAC?
No toolbars, no side bars, no buttons, just code.
If it is possible please let me know.
You can do it in the View menu by disabling the following items:
Double clicking on the editor tab will hide all the open tool windows (second double click will restore them).
It's also possible to disable editor tabs in Preferences | Editor | Editor Tabs.
