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.

Under the View menu, there is a Full Screen entry that I would like to see on the toolbar all the time. When I enter full screen mode, the icon is automatically placed on the menu bar but then it disappears when I leave full screen mode.
[Menu] View/Toolbars/Customize... doesn't allow me to drag the icon to the toolbar
When I use Eclipse IDE, I can simply double-click the tab to put it into full screen mode - if there was a way to configure Visual Studio to do the same, that would be ideal...
On the Customize window navigate to the second tab and find the toolbar you want to edit:
Use the Add Command... option and find the fullscreen command in the View category:
Use the Move Up and Move Down to position the button where you want it.
When you go into Customise..., click on the Commands tab.
Then click the toolbar button and scroll to "Standard".
Then click Add command, then View and then Fullscreen and it should be added!
I read the documentation about Firefox's page inspector. I didn't find any shortcut for inspecting an element directly without clicking the button 'choose element with mouse'. The documentation for opening the inspector itself even looks to be wrong.
You open it with cmd + option + i on OSX rather than cmd + option + c as described in the documentation.
Using Firefox v24
It seems that Ctrl+Shift+C always open the inspector in "choose element with mouse" mode. [Linux, FF 26.0. Also works in Chrome.]
It's not exactly the same flow as context menu -> inspect element but I find it more useful. The hover tooltip sometimes gives me all the info I need. And it's more reliable — just opening the context menu generates a mouse event while Ctrl+Shift+C doesn't. E.g. with CodeMirror which plays games with invisible elements, using context menu usually lands me in the hidden textarea or fake cursor, while "choose with mouse" mode reliably gives me the styled editor content I wanted to inspect.
Windows: Ctrl+Shift+C.
Mac: Cmd+Option+C.
Ctr + Shift + C and function F12 button is default inspect element button for every browser.
So if firebug isn't installed in your firefox then F12 button is the shortest shortcut for your goal.
I'm not sure about the way you do it in Mac OS, but on windows, if you select the element by pressing tab until you reach it, if you press the context menu key and then Q, you open the inspector on that specific element, like it happens when you right click on it.
I believe the context menu key is not a mac thing, but it seems that there are people that worked around to do it. See this question: How do I open the context menu from a Mac keyboard?.
On Mac (I'm using Yosemite though), it's Command ⌘ + Option + c.
On Linux (Ubuntu 18.04) and Firefox (version 72.0.2) it's CTRL + SHIFT + i , or hotkey F12.
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.
Within the last day, in Internet Explorer 8, the developer tools window will not show up.
When I hit F12 or use menu Tools -> Developer Tools I get the Developer Tools entry in the Task Bar but the actual window will not show up.
It has been running fine for a month or so. I have tried rebooting with no luck.
How do I get a window back on the screen when it moved far, far away?
From the article:
Switch to the application, say by clicking on its taskbar button or by
Alt+Tab'ing to it. Then type Alt+Space to call up the System menu: You
should get a window floating at the edge of the screen. Type M to
select Move, then press an arrow key to enter Move mode.
Additional remark by #WebSolProv:
It would appear that something happens with IE that causes the developer tools window to be shrunk to the height of the header bar and width of about 2 inches. By using this solution you can then move the the window into view and enlarge as usual.
If you are on Windows 7, Windows Key + Up Arrow Key will maximize the window.
Not related to the window issue, but in some companies, this could be due to policies. In such cases, at least for me, it worked after modifying the registry like this
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > POLICIES > MICROSOFT > INTERNET EXPLORER > IEDEVTOOLS
and then modifying the DISABLED value to 0, which was 1 for me previously.
I had same problem on Windows 7 when I went back to single monitor setup after having a dual monitor setup.
Use the Windows 7 keyboard shortcut for moving windows around the screen. You may need to repeat the same combination twice.
Windows Key + Left Arrow
or
Windows Key + Right Arrow
Deleting some registry keys worked for me. Try running this in a prompt
reg delete "hkcu\software\microsoft\internet explorer\iedevtools" /v windowpos
Select by Developer Tools window by ALT+TAB then press ALT+SPACE to show window menu and select Maximize or type 'X' character. The Winow will Show UP.
If the window is off page and out of reach by the cursor you can always right click the program in the task bar, click Move then you can use the arrow keys to move the window back into view
For me the menu item 'tools > developer tools' and F12 would not do anything, however the command bar 'tools' dropdown worked as well as the command bar icon.
Run IE and hit F12 , window appears in taskbar.Right click on taskbar and select maximize. vola!! it will appear
