How can I find particular file in IntelliJ IDEA? - intellij-idea

I need to find test.xml in IntelliJ IDEA. How can I do that? Keyboard shortcut if any?

cmd+shift+o (cmd+shift+n in older versions) leads to the file open dialog (on mac).
You can use * chars as wildcards. If there is more than 1 file with the name, you will see the directory of the file for each entry to help you make the choice.

In Windows:
Ctrl + Shift + N
or
Navigate > File...

My IntelliJ version is,
IntelliJ IDEA 2016.2.4
For me, cmd+shift+n doesn't work.
But,
command + shift + o
works perfectly for me.
The above shortcut will give you the dialog box to search a file.
For more help,
On the main menu, point to Navigate, and then choose Class, File, or Symbol respectively, or use the following shortcuts:
Class: ⌘O
File (directory): ⇧⌘O
Symbol: ⌥⌘O
Source : JetBrains.com

Just hit quickly Shift Shift in a row to reveal a pop-up window to search for everything. You can then start typing to search for files. It's a fuzzy finder, so to match e.g. SomeClassWithALongName.java you can just type: sclwlna (or other letters combination, which has the same order of occurance in the target file name).

Well, this is very frequently asked a question by users who switch OS. I recently switched from Windows to MAC.
To open file shortcuts go as follows
Windows : ctrl+shift+n
MAC : command + shift + o

command + E
It Will Open Recent Files

IntelliJ IDEA: Can't type { and [

So I have a problem where in IntelliJ IDEA I can't type In
<br>{ --(Alt Gr + B or Ctrl + Alt + B)
and
[ --(Alt Gr + F or Ctrl + Alt + F)
<br>
I did try to edit shortcuts but there are no shortcuts that match mentiond ones
And when I try using SquareBrackets I get a message a little bit like this: "Cannot perform refactoring. Caret should be positioned at the name of local variable or expression to be refactored"
How can I fix this problem?
It worked for me by going to Ctrl+Shift+A (actions) -> Registry... and then disabling "actionSystem.force.alt.gr"
Worked for me:
While focus is on PyCharm then Ctrl+Shift+A (actions) -> Registry... and then enabling "actionSystem.force.alt.gr"
An other solution (not related to Jetbrain's suite).
This solution suits you if :
The problem is sporadic (occurring at irregular intervals and eventually disappear)
AltGr combinations seems not works on some other windows app
In this case this is a well known bug in Windows, just close all your RDP sessions and the AltGr will start acts as it should.
Guys I found a solution to BOTH of the problems So here are the solutions:
This applies for:
KeyBoards Without [ and { keys (I just English-UK ones have those keys)
and IntelliJ IDEA Deafult KeyMap (May work for some others)
For the "Can't type [ in IntelliJ IDEA":
1.Press Ctrl + Alt + S ,Alt Gr + S or Goto: File > Settings > KeyMap
2.Extend Folder:Main Menu, then folder Refactor and THEN folder Extract
3.Right-Click onto Field...
4.In the pop-up menu Click on Remove Ctrl + Alt + F
For the "Can't type { in IntelliJ IDEA":
1.Press Ctrl + Alt + S ,Alt Gr + S or Goto: File > Settings > KeyMap
2.Extend Folder:Main Menu, then folder Navigate and THEN folder Bookmarks
3.Right-Click onto Implementation(s)
4.In the pop-up menu Click on Remove Ctrl + Alt + B
Hope that helped You :D
There are related issues on YouTrack: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-177327, https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-91975
Problem should be fixed in IDEA 2018.3.
By the way, you could try to add "actionSystem.force.alt.gr=true" option using "Help | Edit Custom Properties"
win10
Pycharm 2018.1.3
ctrl+shift+A
Registry
ENABLE "actionSystem.force.alt.gr", which was disabled initially
SOLVED for me!
In my case it was caused by LaTeX plugin for IntelliJ IDEA. After its installation the 'Toggle Star' option key was set 'alt+shift+8' which coincides with { of my keyboard. Hence the solution is analogous to your own answer:
1) Open Keymap (double-shift and type keymap)
2) Expand: Main menu > LaTex
3) Right-click 'Toggle Star' and remove the mapping.
4) Apply + Ok
If your problem is happening all over Windows and you have two different active Keyboard Layouts, for example English and German, this is what worked for me (don't ask me why):
switch to english (win + space), and type a { there (shift + Key to the right of P).
now switch back to your original language and it should be working again
I had the same problem but with PyCharm.
Unfortunately none of the mentioned answers worked for me. I am on an MacBook using a German layout keyboard. The Problem for me was a changed default setting in the terminal settings. I had to disable "Use Option as Meta Key". On a German Keyboard many "special" characters like [],#, {}, etc. are alt(option) Key-Combinations. I think this is true for other european keyboards as well. (I know for the suisse and the danisch for sure)
In my case, another application was using Alt Gr + 7 && Alt Gr + 8 shortcuts for other processes. So if previous solutions are not helpful, make sure that shortcut is not being used by another program.

IntelliJ Producs go to last opening bracket when pressing Alt + Gr + 8 ([)

I have IntelliJ Idea 15 IU-143.381 and Webstorm WS-143.381
Given you have the following code:
int[] i = new int[3];
at some point (fixed after restart but coming again quite quickly....) I cannot do this simple thing, because I am on a German layout keyboard. For inserting a [ does not work any more.
I need to press Alt Gr + 8 to type a [.
This results into jumping to the last opening }
for example. I have typed this:
public void foo(){
int
On pressing the [ the cursor moves from after int in the second row to the position after foo(){. This is continued till you are up in the class's opening brackets [in Java]. I have tried it in Webstorm with JS and there it is the same. Anyone has an idea how to fix this?
I am on Windows 10 64-bit, German UI and keyboard layout.
Reset IntelliJ/Webstorm/another Jetbrains product's settings by deleting the user preferences folder (for exemple C:\Users\[user]\.IdeaC-[version] in Windows), then when you are told about "smart keyboard shortcuts", then just ignore it and it will never reappear again.
Just remember that this will reset your other preferences too.
I had the same issue with Android Studio 2.0, which is based on IntelliJ. I'm using a Swiss German keyboard layout, on which in have to press Alt Grü to write a bracket [, and Alt Gr! for a ] respectively.
For some reason this matches the keyboard shortcut for "Move Caret to Code Block Start", which was registered as Ctrl[. Same for "Move Caret to Code Block End" with Ctrl]. Looks like IntelliJ cannot handle this correctly.
To fix the issue, I simply removed those shortcuts in File > Settings > Keymap.

How to auto-indent code in the Atom editor?

How do you auto-indent your code in the Atom editor? In other editors you can usually select some code and auto-indent it.
Is there a keyboard shortcut as well?
I found the option in the menu, under Edit > Lines > Auto Indent. It doesn't seem to have a default keymap bound.
You could try to add a key mapping (Atom > Open Your Keymap [on Windows: File > Settings > Keybindings > "your keymap file"]) like this one:
'atom-text-editor':
'cmd-alt-l': 'editor:auto-indent'
It worked for me :)
For Windows:
'atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-l': 'editor:auto-indent'
The accepted answer works, but you have to do a "Select All" first -- every time -- and I'm way too lazy for that.
And it turns out, it's not super trivial -- I figured I'd post this here in an attempt to save like-minded individuals the 30 minutes it takes to track all this down. -- Also note: this approach restores the original selection when it's done (and it happens so fast, you don't even notice the selection was ever changed).
1.) First, add a custom command to your init script (File->Open Your Init Script, then paste this at the bottom):
atom.commands.add 'atom-text-editor', 'custom:reformat', ->
editor = atom.workspace.getActiveTextEditor();
oldRanges = editor.getSelectedBufferRanges();
editor.selectAll();
atom.commands.dispatch(atom.views.getView(editor), 'editor:auto-indent')
editor.setSelectedBufferRanges(oldRanges);
2.) Bind "custom:reformat" to a key (File->Open Your Keymap, then paste this at the bottom):
'atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-d': 'custom:reformat'
3.) Restart Atom (the init.coffee script only runs when atom is first launched).
Package auto-indent exists to apply auto-indent to entire file with this shortcuts :
ctrl+shift+i
or
cmd+shift+i
Package url : https://atom.io/packages/auto-indent
I prefer using atom-beautify, CTRL+ALT+B (in linux, may be in windows also) handles better al kind of formats and it is also customizable per file format.
more details here: https://atom.io/packages/atom-beautify
You can just quickly open up the command palette and do it there
Cmd + Shift + p and search for Editor: Auto Indent:
This works for me:
'atom-workspace atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-a': 'editor:auto-indent'
You have to select all with ctrl-a first.
This is the best help that I found:
https://atom.io/packages/atom-beautify
This package can be installed in Atom and then CTRL+ALT+B solve the problem.
On Linux
(tested in Ununtu KDE)
There is the option in the menu, under Edit > Lines > Auto Indent or press Cmd + Shift + p, search for Editor: Auto Indent by entering just "ai"
Note: In KDE ctrl-alt-l is already globally set for "lock screen" so better use ctrl-alt-i instead.
You can add a key mapping in Atom:
Cmd + Shift + p, search for "Settings View: Show Keybindings"
click on "your keymap file"
Add a section there like this one:
'atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-i': 'editor:auto-indent'
If the indention is not working, it can be a reason, that the file-ending is not recognized by Atom. Add the support for your language then, for example for "Lua" install the package "language-lua".
If a File is not recognized for your language:
open the ~/.atom/config.cson file (by CTRL+SHIFT+p: type ``open config'')
add/edit a customFileTypes section under core for example like the following:
core:
customFileTypes:
"source.lua": [
"conf"
]
"text.html.php": [
"thtml"
]
(You find the languages scope names ("source.lua", "text.html.php"...) in the language package settings see here)
If you have troubles with hotkeys, try to open Key Binding Resolver Window with Cmd + .. It will show you keys you're pressing in the realtime.
For example, Cmd + Shift + ' is actually Cmd + "
You could also try to add a key mapping witch auto select all the code in file and indent it:
'atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-alt-l': 'auto-indent:apply'
I was working on some groovy code, which doesn't auto-format on save. What I did was right-click on the code pane, then chose ESLint Fix. That fixed my indents.
If you are used to the Eclipse IDE or the Netbeans, you can use the package eclipse-keybindings (https://atom.io/packages/eclipse-keybindings):
This Atom package provides Eclipse IDE key mappings for Atom. Currently, the Eclipse shortcuts are directly mapped to existing Atom commands.
To format all lines from a file, just use: Ctrl+Shift+F.
Ctrl+Shift+i worked for me in PHP under Windows ... but some files did not react. Not being the brightest it took me a while to work out that it was the include files that were the problem. If you are using echo(' ... PHP ...') then the PHP does not get re-formatted. To get over this, create a temporary PHP file, say t.php, copy the PHP part into that, reindent it (Ctrl+Shift+i ... did I mention that?) and then copy the newly reformatted PHP back into the original file. Whilst this is a pain, it does give you correctly formatted PHP.

How to make IntelliJ IDEA insert a new line at every end of file?

How do I make IntelliJ IDEA insert a new line at every end of file,
so that GitHub doesn't complain for example?
Change your Editor settings:
Settings → Editor → General → Ensure line feed at file end on Save
For MAC users:
Preferences > Editor > General > Ensure every saved file ends with a line break
IntelliJ IDEA 2016.3
Approach 1
File > Settings... > Editor > General > Ensure line feed at file end on Save
Approach 2
Help > Find Action... (Ctrl+Shift+A) > type "Ensure line feed" > switch the toggle to ON (using the mouse click or Enter) for "Other: Ensure line feed at file end on Save" line
Possible alternative with a number of handy features is EditorConfig
Just submit an .editorconfig file to your repo
[*]
insert_final_newline = true
And it will work natively not only in Idea, but in all major IDEs (some require a plugin).
Now all team members would have same configuration, eol, eof, and no more tabs vs spaces :)
For Mac Users: IntelliJ Idea version 2020.2
Option1:
IntelliJ Idea -> Preferences -> General -> Ensure an empty line at the end of a file on save
Option2:
⬆️ + ⌘ + A or Or just click on Help from menu bar -> Find Action and then type Ensu and choose Ensure an empty line at the end of a file on save
General -> Save Files For IntelliJ IDEA 2020.
Check the Bottom Right Corner:
In latest versions of IntelliJ, the setting has been renamed to 'Ensure an empty line at the end of a file on save', and it has been moved under Setting>Editor>General>Save Files
This should have been a comment, but I wanted to add the screenshot as well so wrote as an answer.
As Rider (IDEA's cousin for .NET) is driving me crazy, this might be helpful for those writing C# as Ensure line feed at file end on Save alone won't work. It needs
File → Settings → Editor → Code Style → C# → Line Breaks and Wrapping → Line feed at end of file.
I don't remember changing it and I haven't imported any settings for sure, so I guess it's by default disabled.
With the IntelliJ Idea version 2020.3:
Go to File > Sttings > Editor > General > On Save
And then select/deselect "Ensure every saved file ends with a line break"
With the Intellij version 2022.3.1
Preferences (cmd + ,) > Editor > General > Ensure every saved file ends with a line break
Check, apply, and click ok
intellij

Keyboard shortcut for going onelevel up in midnight commander [mc]

Is there a keyboard shortcut for going one level up in the directory tree in midnight commander (mc), which will save me from going all the up to the ..?
As shown below - say I'm in a directory that contains tonnes of stuff, and its painful to scroll all the way up. Its clickable, but nothing beats keyboard shortcuts!
If you go to Options->Panel-Options and tick the "Lynx-like motion" option you can use left-arrow to go to the parent directory and right-arrow to enter a directory.
Does Home, Enter count as a keyboard shortcut?
Short answer: No.
Longer answer: Ctrl + PageUp goes to the last diretory - not the parent, but this may be what you want in most cases.
(https://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/2420)
Without changing the default setup Alt + Y and Alt + U go to previous and next directory in history, which may be enough on most cases (Alt + H to see the full history). If not, you always have Home, Enter.
Alt + Arrows are used to move between windows on byobu/tmux.
To add a custom shortcut (like Backspace) to your user config:
echo 'CdParentSmart = backspace' >> ~/.config/mc/mc.keymap # Globally in /etc/mc/mc.keymap
Here more related handy shortcuts.
In /etc/mc/mc.default.keymap find and uncomment CdParentSmart in [Panel] section. If it's not there, add it. And set a key you want. Behavoir similar to Total/Double Commander would be CdParentSmart = backspace. So it will backspace command line, if it's not empty. Or will level up from any place, if command line is empty.
The file should be edited when MC is not running, as it is resetting it to currently loaded settings on exit.
