Up until version 10, intellij enabled searching text in the console window. From version 11 this option is not available anymore.
Is there any configuration to enable that? A plugin maybe? This is very useful for me and I miss this function...
-- EDIT --
I'm using the community edition of Intellij
Override the keymap for Ctrl+F to "Find" which was mapped to some other find.
To be more specific, in Settings - Keymap go to Main Menu - Edit - Find - Find... and make sure that a Shortcut is assigned here.
Press Ctrl+F in the console:
Check you key map settings. Like in my case - I have eclipse key mapping and there is CTRL+F set to "edit\Replace" not to "edit\Find", and the "edit\Find" has no key binding at all, that's why it is not working in console.
Go to File -> Settings -> Keymap -> Main menu -> Edit -> Find -> Find... (right click on it) -> add keyboard shortcut.
It's not set by default so you have to set it manually.
CTRL+F is by default for Replace that is not supported in console for IntelliJ.
Click on console and Use CTRL+K it is used for find in intelliJ
I was encountering the same issue while I was using vim in IntelliJ 2018.3.4.
After I disabled the Tools -> Vim Emulator, I could then search in Console using Ctrl+F.
Updated
In macOS, I just could use Command+F without disabling the emulator.
Perhaps that's why developers are using macOS more.
For those who have vim plug-in enabled.
Go to Editor->Vim Emulation and check keymaps. Make sure Ctrl + F is handled by IDE and not by Vim.
After setting that, I am able to search the console by Ctrl + F and keep vim enabled.
I'm using Eclipse key mapping in IntelliJ. The shortcut to search the console is Ctrl + Shift + G. By default it would search the word where the cursor is pointing.

Couldn't find the simple solution on SO, so thought I would add this here for anyone looking in the future.
My symptom was that I could copy and paste within the IJ editor, but not from the editor to another application or from another app to the editor.
This was on Windows 10 with IntelliJ IDEA 14.1.6.
I have found the best solution yet (for me in any case). I have tried everything! Including adding and removing Keymap options. And this is actually where the problem lies...sort of.
When you have the Vim plugin installed, Ctrl + c and Ctrl + v is allocated to Vim.
To change that, go to Setting>>Other Settings>>Vim Emulation and set the Handler to IDE. Apply and OK, and Voila!
My solution (thanks to a similar issue reported with Android Studio) was to run IntelliJ as an admin.
Steps to always run IntelliJ in admin mode:
Right-click on IntelliJ icon in start menu search (or wherever you started it) -> Open file location
Right-click IntelliJ shortcut -> Open file location (yes, again to get to the .exe, not the shortcut.)
Right-click idea.exe -> Properties
Compatibility tab -> check Run this program as an Administrator
Right-click idea64.exe -> Properties (if you run IntelliJ in 64 bit mode)
Compatibility tab -> check Run this program as an Administrator
Same problem drove me completely insane but this
https://www.quora.com/Why-doesnt-Ctrl+V-and-Ctrl+C-work-in-IntelliJ-IDEA-14-0-2-on-Linux
worked for me:
You might try Ctrl+INS for copy and Shift+INS for paste and see if they work. They are the traditional cut and paste and have been around a lot longer than Ctrl+c/Ctrl+v.
i don't know why, but this worked!
To make copy/paste through shortcut keys working with Vim Plugin you need to change some settings of Intellij IDE's editor regarding vim emulation, you need to follow these steps for it:
Click Menu File > Settings... (or use shortcut Ctrl + Alt + S)
Select Editor -> Vim Emulation and find the shortcuts and change their Handler column value to IDE as shown in the screenshot below.
The Shortcuts will start working, happy coding :)
Another solution i've found
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=173201
was:
Try to minimize Idea window and move it on the same monitor where is the code that you want to copy and paste it. After this small minimize and move exercise the clipboard starts working.
Ctrl-Shft-V starts working after this for me!!!!!
Try to enable "Use national layouts". Settings- Keymap.
For some reason it worked for me.
PyCharm - Setting>>Vim Emulation Set - Control + V/P/A to IDE
I have recently started using Intellij and I noticed that by default, when you do ctrl+c for copying something when you have nothing selected, it copies the entire line into the clipboard overriding what I had in there before.
This is really annoying yet I cannot seem to figure out how to disable it. I am aware that there is a paste history you can use however this is not what I am after, I just want to disable it like you can do with sublime text.
Is there a way to disable this behaviour so that when I press ctrl+c and nothing is selected it just leaves the clipboard alone?
Since version 2021.2 there is a dedicated Don't copy/cut the current line when invoking the Copy or Cut action with no selection setting for this in Preferences | Advanced Settings on the Mac, Settings | Advanced Settings on other platforms.
For older IntelliJ Platform based IDE's the setting is more hidden:
Invoke Help | Find Action... (Ctrl (Cmd on Mac)+Shift+A), type Registry and select the Registry... item that appears. Enable the editor.skip.copy.and.cut.for.empty.selection option there. Be careful with the other configuration options, because it is possible to break your IntelliJ IDEA installation with an incorrect setting.
In Mac OS X:
Press cmd+shift+a.
Type registry and press return to
open the Registry.
Enable the editor.skip.copy.and.cut.for.empty.selection option.
Click Close.
I suppose it should be same as in WebStorm, or someone might be searching WebStorm solution as I did:
Open the settings: File > Settings > Advanced Settings (bottom of the list).
Start typing "editor".
Check the editor.skip.copy.and.cut.for.empty.selection
Click "OK" or "Apply"
On: WebStorm 2022.3.1
in PHPStorm -> From the Help menu, select Edit Custom Properties.
and paste
editor.skip.copy.and.cut.for.empty.selection = true
I just upgraded IdeaVIM to use the newly added support for window management. The problem I'm having is that the keybindings aren't working at all. I've tried editing the keymap manually, adding back the default bindings, but they're not in effect.
When I hit C-w I get some help in the modeline letting me know which keybindings are available at that prefix (l for window right, h for window left etc) but when I hit the second key nothing happens!What's going on here? I'm running ideavim 13.1.3.
NOT exactly the same problem but for me
Vimidea / Vim plugin was not working on Pycharm / Rubymine / Intellij
Finally found the solution!!!
(ON MAC)
Just make sure that you don't have a conflict with the Keymap to refactor->extract->variable and vim emulator!
Go to settings->Keymap->MainMenu->Refactor->Extract->Variable
And remove the shortcut
Now run the shortcut to make the VimEmulator to run, in Mac just hit:
Cmd+option+V (option is the key next to command)
If its still doesn't work it means that you cannot exit insert mode - make sure to bind the escape key to:
settings->Keymap->Plug-ins->ideavim->Exit Insert Mode == escape
Actually using the shortcut to start/stop VimEmulator is a great idea when you ask your team-mate help with your code and he/she is not used to working with Vim.
Just hit cmd+option+V and you are back to using the idea without Vim and again to start working with Vim again :)
You can enable/disble it through: shift-cmd-A, then type ideavim and you'll see a switch on there
I'm switching over from Eclipse to IntelliJ. In Eclipse, Ctrl+O in the editor, shows a hover popup that allows to search for a method in the class you're editing.
What is the equivalent shortcut for that in IntelliJ?
Use Navigate (View in older versions) | File Structure Popup (Ctrl+F12 on Windows,
⌘+F12 on OS X). Start typing method/symbol name to either narrow down the list or highlight the desired element. Press Enter to navigate to the selected element.
I prefer to use the Structure view. To open it, use the menu: View/Tools Window/Structure.
The hotkey on Windows is Alt+7,
⌘+7 on OS X
Do Cmd+F12+Fn Key on mac in IntelliJ if clicking Cmd+F12 starts.
On linux distributions (#least on Debian with plasma) the default shortcut is
Ctrl + 0
If you are running on Linux (I tested in Ubuntu 10.04), the shortcut is Ctrl + F12 (same of Windows)
command+fn+F12 is correct.
Lacking of button fn the F12 is used adjust the volume.
By default, most of distribution uses Ctrl+F12.
Some OS distribution (in my case Xubuntu) which uses Xcfe, overrides Ctrl+F12 to "Workspace 12" switch.
You can type "this." and wait a second, a popup with methods and properties will display.
Not a shortcut, but it works for me.
PS: if you are in a static method, type the class name.
For Mac Users if command + fn + f12 or command + f12 is not working, then your key map is not selected as "Mac Os X". To select key map follow the below steps.
Android Studio -> Preferences -> Keymap -> From the drop down Select "Mac OS X" -> Click Apply -> OK.
Ashkan Kh. Nazary you can use
Ctrl+N
or
Ctrl+Shift+N

I'm just swapping from eclipse to IntelliJ, and I can't find this particular feature.
In Eclipse, when the cursor is inside the brackets of a method-call and I press Ctrl+Space, it tells me which parameters this method takes. Is there something similiar in IDEA?
Use Ctrl+P (Cmd+P for Mac), it should show something similar.
You may also find the reference card (PDF) handy.
Except CTRL+P (or CMD+P for Mac)
There is new feature in IntelliJ IDEA EAP:
Parameter name hints
Settings > Editor > General > Appearance
preview:

I'm using:
IntelliJ IDEA 2016.3 EAP
Build #IU-163.5219.11, built on September 27, 2016
Yes - just press CTRL-P.
Display the parameter-helper automatically, by adjusting the "Autopopup"-timer in IntelliJ / PhpStorm settings.
Navigate to:
File -> Settings -> Editor -> General -> Code Completion -> Autopopup in (ms)
Set it to whatever you like. Etc. 5 ms.
Ctrl+P if the keybinding is set to "default".
