The IntelliJ IDEA short-cut to reformat source code is Ctrl+Alt+L. This happens to lock the screen in KDE (Gnome too?). How can I disable this so IntelliJ receives the key sequence?
Under the K menu, go to the Control Center.
Regional & Accessibility |
Keyboard Shortcuts |
Shortcut Schemes tab,
Global Shortcuts tab.
In the search box, type "lock", which should narrow the visible shortcuts and show the Ctrl+Alt+L one ("Lock Session").
Underneath, click None.
Click the Apply button.
On KDE Plasma 5 go to System Settings | Desktop Behaviour | Screen Locking
Here you will find a "Keyboard Shortcut" option. Change it to something else or set to none
On Kubuntu 11.10 it's well hidden:
Start System Settings
Under Common Appearance and Behavior, select Shortcuts and Gestures.
Select Global Keyboard Shortcuts in the left-hand panel.
Select the KDE Component: Run Command Interface (important, otherwise you won't see the ctrl-alt-L mapping!)
Select Lock Session
Edit the setting, either choose a different mapping or 'none'.
I eventually found how to disable the lock screen key binding (Ctrl-Alt-L) in the System Setting app.
System Settings->"Keyboard Mouse->Keyboard Shortcuts
I had to choose the KDE component: Run Command Interface.
I'm running KDE on Fedora Core 9.
For Linux Mint:
System Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> System -> Lock screen
It's easy to disable all global keyboard shortcuts in KDE for specific applications. I've done it in KDE 4 and now I've done it in KDE 5 again. So in KDE 5 right click on your application's window title -> More actions -> Special Window Settings (or Special Application Settings) -> Appearance & Fixes -> Ignore Global Shortcuts -> Force, Yes. It's much easier than to look for each shortcut one by one.
You can check such configurations in System Settings -> Window Management -> Window Rules.
Instead of disabling anything, you can also use ctrl+meta+alt+l in most applications where this problem exists. KDE knows the meta key (aka the 'windows key'), but the applications seem to ignore it and consider it to be just ctrl+alt+l.
I know, old question, but I didn't easily find a decent answer. If anybody is wondering how to disable it on Ubuntu (while the Windows_key + L shortcut will still work):
Go to Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts tab -> System -> select Lock screen and press backspace to clear it.
For KDE Plasma 5
1 - click on K menu, type keyboard, choose Global Keyboard shortcuts
2 - Choose the KDE Session Manager in KDE component , at Lock Session, do what you want, disable the shortcut or choose another!
For Ubuntu 16.04 System settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcut -> System -> LockScreen -> click-it and make changes
I changed my to ctrl+alt+H from ctrl+atl+L
Here is the Screen shot which tells where the above instructions will lead you to.
Keyboard -> shortcuts
Another option is to change the Idea keymap to use Default for KDE.
You can go to File -> settings -> keymap and then select the Default for KDE option from the drop down
Also you can change it with the configuration file.
The following files store the keyboard shortcuts of KDE Plasma 5 and of some of its associated applications such as Konsole and KWrite.
~/.config/kdeglobals
~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc
~/.config/khotkeysrc
~/.config/kwinrc
~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/katepart/katepart5ui.rc
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/konsole/konsoleui.rc
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/konsole/sessionui.rc
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/kwrite/kwriteui.rc
Let me add descriptions for the files.
Standard Shortcuts (System Settings > Shortcuts)
~/.config/kdeglobals
Global Shortcuts (System Settings > Shortcuts)
~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc
"Custom Shortcuts" (System Settings > Shortcuts)
~/.config/khotkeysrc
Konsole
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/konsole/konsoleui.rc
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/konsole/sessionui.rc
KWrite > Settings > Configure Shortcuts... > KWrite
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/kwrite/kwriteui.rc
KWrite > Settings > Configure Shortcuts... > Kate Part
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/katepart/katepart5ui.rc
For those who prefer visual answers, here's where this settings can be found
IMPORTANT Note that there are two values: Global and Global Alternative. I had to unbind the Global Alternative shortcut to resolve a problem with IntelliJ.
Ubuntu 20.04 + KDE plasma:
Use Global Shorcuts -> System Setting Module menu -> Lock session. Set to "Custom -> None"

The KDE 5 terminal emulator Konsole has a great feature Split View that allows me to make full use of my big monitor. However, I cannot find a way to use keyboard shortcuts, rather than clicking mouse, to switch between the active views (see: The Konsole Handbook). This apparently reduces the work efficiency. Anyone has an idea how to enable this? Thanks a lot in advance.
What works on version 19.08.2 is Ctrl+Shift+Arrow. You can use up, down, left, right as required.
Ctrl+Tab can be used to switch between all views including in other tabs. It is like Alt+Tab of window managers that you can switch between last ones relasing the Ctrl and using this shortcut again.
You can use the shortcut Shift + Tab.
the shortcuts are called Focus (Above|Below|Left|Right) Terminal. by default they are mapped to Ctrl+Shift+Arrows.
to change these shortcuts, go to Settings -> Configure Keyboard Shortcuts -> Search for "focus".
Shift+Right/Shift+Left should work to navigate between the Konsole tabs.
shift + tab worked for me to switch across multiple tabs that are open in an active split-view screen on a Konsole application in CentOS versions > 6.x
Intellij provides "Switcher" which not only switches between recent files but also tool windows.
Some tool windows are not being assigned to a shortcut which forces you to open it every time going trough Switcher dialog instead of just doing a simple shortcut.
For example here gradle does not have a shortcut
Although it is shown as tool window under number 5
How do we manage these shortcuts?
Go to Settings -> Keymap -> Other and find Gradle, assign shortcut as you wish (i.e. Alt + 2). It will work. Note that a hint on button (in this example 2:Gradle) will appear after restarting.
I googled but have not found any solving documentation/thread regarding this:
Is there a way to set keyboard shortcut to go full screen in Webstorm Terminal tool window from Terminal window?
I know shortcut shift+Command+' but that doesn't work for me inside terminal. I know by double clicking it you can toggle it to full screen but wondering that is it possible to set keyboard shortcut to do it as I do this operation often.
Try the "Maximize tool window" command in the menu - Window->Active Tool Window->Maximize tool window
Or from terminal tool menu - Resize-> Maximize tool window
Warning! The following shortcut only works if "Override IDE shortcuts" option is disabled
To map a shortcut to this, open the Preferences dialog and type "Maximize tool window" to search the settings. It should find a match in the keymap section, and you can then use it to assign a shortcut.
It will warn you if you already have something assigned to your choice.
Warning! The following option will cause some problems in Terminal, for example, editing in vim (Esc key) etc.
Also, you can to checkout the "Override IDE shortcuts" setting in the Terminal section of the Preferences. This is enabled by default - I turn it off and find it resolves a lot of niggles I have with using the terminal. The shortcut above only works if it's disabled.
In Mac cmd+shift+fn+12 will do the trick
I mostly like zen mode - cmd(ctrl)+K,Z

Double press 'escape' from anywhere will bring you back to editor tab.
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
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.
