I am working with Intellj IDE, but I found one thing really annoying.
I am using macOS and Magic Mouse, when I try to select part of the code it often instead of selecting code tries to move block of code like that
This thing is really annoying and happens very often, so I wonder how to disable this "useful" feature ? And left only simple selection without block movement.
Thanks
Disable the following checkbox: Settings > General > Editor > Enable Drag'n'Drop functionality in the editor

When debugging program in Idea (I'm using 14.1.5 Community Edition), it attempts to put the line I'm currently on close to the center of the screen. And it does so every single step. However, I find this default behavior very annoying, it looks like the code is jumping around.
I wonder if there a way to customize the debugger view in a way that the code would be fixed (as long as I'm not leaving one screen of code) and the current line highlighting would be moving around? (I didn't find it in the Debugger section of the settings.)
Many thanks.
You want to disable "Focus application on breakpoint" which is in the settings under Build,Execution, Deployment > Debugger - it's the first checkbox. It's help documentation reads:
If this check box is selected, on hitting a breakpoint, IntelliJ IDEA will show the location of this breakpoint in the editor and will attempt to bring its frame to the front.
This should do the trick.
There seems to be a a series of problems related to using the keyboard (only) on the mac - as opposed to resorting to the mouse. I am wondering if people have figured out workarounds for some of these issues.
Example 1: Hitting Enter does not work. Hitting tab does not work.Hitting space does not work. Only way to 'accept'/close the dialog is to mouse over and hit ok. Yuck.
Example 2: Using The Option button we can the "Do Refactor has D underlined - so clicking option-D should accept. However it does not work. Once again - only way is to click using the mouse
Example 3: In refactor dialog, one can not hit "return" or tab over or use "alt-r" to accept the Refactor. Once again - using mouse is the only way.
Example 4: In ANY open file dialog you have to type in manually the entire path. This one is confirmed bug by JetBrains, and I wonder if anyone has an idea of workaround
Click on the "option" key and the Mnemonics DO show up. I discovered this by accident.
When I want to close or open a function in xcode I always accidentally add a breakpoint, that is very annoying so I wonder if there is a way to remove/disable it. I have searched for a solution but they are just people asking how to remove a breakpoint. I have checked through all the settings but not found anything. Or maybe there is an option to change how to add breakpoints like double click to add as in eclipse?
Here is an image of what Im talking about:
I don't see any thing in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Xcode.plist to help. But there are always the keyboard shortcuts for Fold and Unfold
I am stepping through some code in VS2010. I noticed this icon in the side bar:
And since the apprearance of that icon, I am unable to use F10 to loop though code.
I tried changing many settings but nothing helps. I changed project properties, reset VS to default, but to no avail.
Im sure is a simple answer, but I am just not able to figure it.
UPDATE: Only happens if loop contains TRACE macro
If you want to remove bookmarks, Check in tools for "Clear Bookmarks" or here is the shortcut to remove all bookmarks "ctrl+k then ctrl+l"
On Eclipse, whenever I double click a tab, it fills the workspace (by hiding all other views like project tree, console, etc).
Is there any way to do this on Visual Studio?
Note: i'm not looking for full screen, just want a way to declutter the workspace but still have access to menus.
Are you after this?
Set shortcuts for the Window.AutoHideAll function and for the Window.ResetWindowLayout function. In order for the ResetWindowLayout to work, you have to export your settings (make sure you select "All Settings") with all windows expanded and then import them again.
ResetWindowLayout will restore all windows to the way they were the last time you imported your settings.
Not with double click on tab, but you can do the same with Shift+Alt+Enter key combination.
This keyboard shorcut was changed to F11 from 1.9.1 vscode version.

I was looking for that, as well, and I now just got used to using full screen (Shift+Alt+Enter), which hides a little too much, which you seem to think, as well, but does in fact still show the menus.
Looks like drby got it on this one. Just FYI. I pinged the VS team to ask about this and here is the response:
"There is no way to reverse the command automatically. For it to work as a toggle we would need to save which toolwindows were auto hidden and which ones were not when the command was run, which we don’t do (it would cause lots of interesting persistence questions, across profiles and VS sessions)."
The idea of a "Unhide All" command is what I suggested. So if you hide all then you can unhide all as well. There might be some windows you don't want to unhide but the 1 or 2 extra windows is better than not having an unhide IMHO.
