Finding documentation in XCode 4.5
(1 answer)
Closed 4 years ago.
I was just getting along with XCode4. All of sudden i want to see some documentation. So i rightclicked the text it was not showing "Find Text in Documentation" option :(
I really found this option very useful in learning iOS from XCode 3. versions. All of sudden it is gone. I searched for it and couldnt find it.
So now each time i have to go to Apple Documentation Site and search for it.
Any solutions for that.
Open the Utility pane and click the Quick Help tab. Selecting text in the source editor shows quick help with hyperlinks to the docs. Alternatively, you can Option-click a symbol to see it in a popup/popover window and can click to open the full documentation from there as well.

How do I remove IntelliJ's blank line numbers?
(2 answers)
Closed 10 months ago.
Updated to Rider version 2022.1, and above class properties or methods I have this link called "usages". How to turn them off, they are driving me crazy. I don't know how these things are called, so googling didn't give any results. Glanced through myriad of settings in Settings window - also no idea.
You can hide all metrics by disabling "Code Vision" (CTRL+SHIFT+ALL code vision for a quick access in the settings).
You can also hide specific metrics by right clicking on it.
I searched the web for an answer to this but was not able to find it in official documentation, forum of IntelliJ or stackoverflow:
In IntelliJ: (How) Can I have multiple search results kept open?
I know there is the possibility of "Recent Find Usages" but this always does a new search. With a big code base this takes a lot of time. Or imagine you need to compare search results.
I now found a solution. See my answer...
When opening the global search dialog (ctrl + shift + f) there is a gear-wheel icon in the lower left. There you can choose to "Open in new tab".
This will keep the previous search result window open and just create a new tab for the new search.
This setting is at least active as long as IntelliJ stays open and also appies to all opened windows / instances of IntelliJ.
Found this answer in a discussion about Visual Studio Code feature request: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/16488

I need to fix the red flag marks on my vb.net projects. See here:
I believe it's one of the projects that isn't included in the build. I saw this post earlier but I can't find the general tab she was talking about. I also tried navigating the solution explorer but can't seem to find the right answer for this.
If you mouse over the icon, a tooltip should appear indicating the meaning of the icon. According to this MSDN article, this icon "represents an item that is not under Team Foundation version control".

How to disable parameter hints in IntelliJ IDEA?
(2 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
Am trying out IntelliJ IDEA 2017.1.3 (being an Eclipse user, there's been a lot of great nods to both Jetbrains and IntelliJ IDEA being sophisticated, so I have been fooling around with it all day and actually enjoying some features).
Wrote a simple unit test (which worked) but am noticing inside the editor that its auto-inserting my variable's value with a grey background following a colon ":" afterwards and also inside the assertEquals() method its adding a grey background for the word "expected:".
After placing my mouse cursor and clicking the second button, a dialog came up stating "Disable Hints" and I was able to get rid of them manually, but am wondering how to not have them appear by default.
Attached is a screenshot (a picture speaks a thousand words)! :)
How can I turn this off? Am using the macOS version of IntelliJ IDEA.
You can permanently disable them by go to Preferences.. > Editor > General > Appearance > Show parameter name hints (uncheck to disable)
I have 2 simple questions that I cannot find answer to.
First is in NetBeans when I type . operator behind a variable or method or whatever, small window with documentation will show up like on the picture. On the other hand I can't achieve the same result in IntelliJ. I followed steps on official website and this is what I get in IntelliJ after I press CTRL+Q. All I want is full documentation so for a begginer like me it would be easier to use and learn stuff.
[EDIT]: I tried it once again and I saw little yellow message "download missing driver" and it is working just fine.. this one is solved.
Second question is about MySQL database driver (or connector). In NetBeans, I just press right click on project and add the library I want. But I can't find solution for this in IntelliJ.
Thanks for every advice!
For the first question, I'm thinking what you mean is the suggestions after you type a '.'. In IntelliJ, the suggestions show only if you have config a right dependency in the File > Project Structure, and the Libraries tab.
And for the second question, also you should find File > Project Structure, in the Modules tab, Add new Database support(Hibernate such as) for you project.
Hope it helps you.
Ok, so I finally found the solution.
I went to Project Structure -> SDKs -> Documentation Paths and I added https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/ in there so now when I press CTRL+Q for quick documentation it shows exactly what I needed.
