My background tasks view appears with the following garbled or distorted text. I can almost make out the names of some of the tasks, but clearly this is not intended and not optimal. It's been this way for as long as I've had IntelliJ IDEA (I think my first was version 11. I'm currently on 12.1), but haven't yet attempted to address it.
Is this some font setting I've gotten wrong, and what can I do to fix it?
It's a known bug, please follow:

Using Intellij Ultimate v 2017.1.1 on OSX Sierra, when I do a search in file, using CMD+f, I get an unusable full screen search dialog. Has anyone seen this ? Images attached.
Before clicking CMD+f (all is well)
I try to search for something:
Any help appreciated. The Internets has so far yielded no help.
This issue is already fixed, please see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-170295 for details.
It was caused by the Swing MigLayout misbehavior when system DPI was extremely high.
This can happen if you accidentally paste a huge block of code into the finder, try CMD+f and then CMD+a and finally delete.
I´d like to know how can I stop execution in smalltalk. I entered an infinite loop and don´t want to loose the code that´s written. I tried using pause button but doesn´t seem to be right.
Normally, even if you are unable to stop execution, you should be able to get the code changes you made back from the .changes file. If you can restart the image, there is a 'recover lost changes' menu entry. Always first make a backup copy of the changes and image files before trying this. (In Pharo/Squeak. Other smalltalk have similar possibilities)
it depends on the dialect and possibly keyboard settings.
try CMD-. or CTRL-., which works in most dialects.
Just started to use jEdit (I'm a die-hard vi/vim user) and I've come across a question already that I cannot find anywhere.
I want to display any comments in my source code not just in a different colour (I already have that) but also with a highlighted background colour. Unfortunately the shop I am working at currently has a policy of never deleting code but instead commenting out and adding to. Works fine with a few lines of code but occasionally I come across programs where hundreds of lines have been commented out and if it's first thing in the AM I sometimes find myself altering code that has already been commented out.
I know there is the ability to "fold" comments but I'm looking for a colour background alternative.
TIA

I have moved the Debug tool frame to the right side of my layout. This is nice except for one problem. The layout of the tabs internal to the tool (i.e. Frames, Variables, Watches) are laid out horizontally. The result is that I cannot see the Frames and Variables tabs at the same time because there just isn't enough room. This would work fine if I could simply layout the tabs vertically, so that Frames sits just above the Variables tab.
I have looked all over to find a setting that would allow this, but I can't find it. Is it possible? Perhaps it is not.
I don't think that this is a feature of IntelliJ. I don't see it in IntelliJ 12. Since it's a community-driven IDE, you could always make a feature request of it and see how well it takes.
I'm trying to get wxCheckBox to have sensitive label like it is in some other toolkit's.
It is often too delicate to aim on little box so whole area with label would be much convenient way to change a state.
But I can't find a way to do it.
Any help would be appreciate.
wxWidgets 2.8, Ubuntu 10.04
I can confirm this is a bug in wxWidgets GTK for wxALIGN_RIGHT check-boxes. If we take a quick look at the source code for the wxCheckBox we can see that right aligned controls are created as two seperate parts, a label and a check box and that the label is never connected to to respond to click events. If you create a ticket on the wxWidgets bug tracker then I am sure someone will fix it.
