How often do you use ‘Go To Class/File/Symbol’ feature in IntelliJ IDEA? Pretty often I would guess. But do you know everything you can do with it? Let me go through a couple of often overlooked gems.
Do you know that when you search for file or class you can preview an image (Ctrl-Shift-I) or see a quick doc (Ctrl-Q)?

It is also possible to open multiple items in the editor (multiselect with Ctrl or Shift) or run multiple selected tests right from the search (Ctrl-Shift-F10).

And you can open all search results in the ‘Find’ tool-window to process them one by one later.


Did I mention your favorite feature? No? Please, share it with everyone!

At JetBrains we not only bring you new powerful features that make your life better, but also take care to polish the good old stuff to perfection. Let’s take a look at the Move refactoring for ActionScript classes, Flex components and all other types of top-level declarations (namespaces, functions, variables and constants), that has just got a little smarter. By the way, this refactoring also works for inner declarations (also known as helpers or file-local declarations), defined in ActionScript file out of the package statement.

What could be a better way for the IntelliJ IDEA team to conclude the year 2011 than to release a bugfix update? And that’s exactly what we’re doing.
To upgrade to the new version, simply use the “Check for Update” action if you’re already running version 11, or grab the complete installer from the download page. And of course, the release notes for the new build are also available.
Happy New Year, and see you again in 2012!

When working with big projects we always come back to 10-20 items/files where we do the most of our work.
IntelliJ IDEA helps you collecting all these items in one place — ‘Favorites’. It’s easy to add a file, a class or a method to the Favorites by simply pressing Alt+Shift+F. You can also drag and drop items to the Favorites.
And now with ‘Favorites’ being a separate tool-window, just press Alt+2 (or Cmd+2) whenever you need to access one of your precious items again.
