Press F1 when editing code and get a context help panel. What is the keyboard shortcut for closing the context help panel?
The button that collapses the context help panel is roughly 4x4mm -- a tiny click target. I cannot find a keyboard shortcut for closing the context help in Qt documentation.
To close just the Help pane after pressing F1, press the following keys:
F1, Ctrl-2
Pressing F1 with the Help pane open opens the help content in the IDE's Help mode which fills the full edit area. Ctrl+2 switches back to the edit mode; the Help pane is closed when you switch back. I tested this in Qt Creator 5.0.3.

I am using Android Studio 1.0.2 on mac.
When fn+F1 pop the documentation, how can I use hotkey to hide it?
(Press F1 again doesn't hide it)
At the top right of the image, I wonder what is the key after Shift?
Use Shift+Esc to close the area.
Just found out Shift + Click on the title bar can hide the tab.
So I guess the icon might not be a key, it means click.
I'm novice with Xcode. Could you please hint me which Xcode shortcuts to show
documentation of an object;
which methods are available for the object.
Thank you in advance!
If you press Alt and press on an element once the inline documentation will be displayed in a small box. If you press Alt twice, the documentation will be opened in a new window. The screenshot shows the sincle tap:
For other shortcuts you can access and change the xCode shortcuts in Preferences -> Key Bindings
For me the tool you can find on this website is the best for all shortcuts on your mac. After installing, you always can display all shortcuts of a program. You press CMD and you get the shortcuts of the program which is acutaly selected:
Is there an Xcode keyboard shortcut to jump directly to main editor window?
Cmd+J seems to be the closest, but it displays a UI for selecting which editor to open, or to open a new assistant editor.
There is a command in Xcode > Preferences > Key Bindings that is called Move Focus To Next Editor (Navigate Menu).
With it you jump to the main Editor and if you are in the main Editor you jump to the next editor until you had focus on all editors then you jump back to the main one.
Take a look at the official and this blog about Xcode shortcuts.
Xcode also has a pretty complete "Key Bindings" section in its preferences.
No there is no XCode Keyboard shortcut to jump directly to main editor window. But yes ⌘+J allows you to move to editor window. I am attaching a picture of probably all the shortcuts for XCode 4. I found this on a blog... The picture is quite big so you will have to zoom.
It's kind of annoying to have to use my mouse to close the windows that appear when when summoned by my keyboard e.g. I find usages of an object by hitting Shift+F12, or any of the other dockable windows that appear for various other reasons.
Ideally these would close when I hit escape, but this does nothing. Alt+F4 wants to close the entire visual studio.
Is there any keyboard shortcut to close these windows?
To be clear, this is the kind of window I'm referring to:
According to Default Keyboard Shortcuts in Visual Studio 2015, you can use the following:
Shift + Esc - Window.Close (window must have focus)
Ctrl + F4 - Window.CloseDocumentWindow to close the current tab
It appears #inksmithy has answered the question, even though it doesn't work for me. I reckon it's because I'm using ReSharper and he isn't.
For what it's worth, I just discovered Ctrl + Shift + F4 works for me.
I've decided to mark #inksmithy's answer as correct but if that doesn't work for you try my one.
Set Focus to docked window (e.g. [Ctrl]+[g] for immediate window)
Press context menu key (at the right side of the space key)
Press the key to hide that window, indicated by _ in the contextmenu
(depends on your language)
On the above shown asking popup window on Mac, how can I select another button (left button) by using keyboard.
Without clicking mouse button, I want to make left button highlighten.
Is there any shortcuts?
Go to Preferences -> Keyboard. At the bottom, turn on "All controls" under "Full Keyboard Access".
The alternate option will be highlighted with a blue ring. Hitting space will activate this. If there are multiple options, hitting tab will alternate between them.
For English/Mac OSX 10.10:
Go to Keyboard in System Preferences, and then select 'All controls'. Space will select the alternate option if two options. If more than two options then tab will alternate between them.
PS: I would much rather the option of using arrow keys and enter. Interested to know if anyone knows how to hack this?
After reading Tricon's answer, I got the way!!!
Just see the following shortcuts.
Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard & keyboard input (I don't know the correct English menu, I'm using Korean "탭이 초점을 이동하는 방식 변경 (^F7) )
Once you do ^F7 (In case of mac book, Control + fn + F7) on a popup window, you can travel over buttons on any popup windw!!!
Thank you Tricon for giving me clue :)
In Catalina in Keyboard -> Shortcuts press Use keyboard navigation to mve focus between controls. Then you can use Tab to highlight another button and use Space to actually press it.
