Do you know where ‘Go To…’ can get you?

January 19th, 2012 by Anna Kozlova

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! :)

Favorites tool-window in IntelliJ IDEA 11

December 29th, 2011 by Konstantin Bulenkov

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.
