What's the equivalent of Alt-left/right arrow key like Eclipse in IntelilJ?

Question

In Eclipse you can use alt+<- or -> to move between places you were. What is the equivalent in Intellij?

Answer 1

This is a two step process

1. Enable the Toolbar using View -> Appearance -> Toolbar
2. Right click on Toolbar (It would have appeared on Top) , Add to Main Toolbar (Back and Forward icons)

Answer 2

We can also change default shortcuts option to eclipse shortcuts option - File -> Settings -> Keymap -> select Eclipse in the dropdown.

Answer 3

I confirmed it's ⌘+⌥+←(→) on Mac OS X.
Command + Option + Left(Right)

Just for additional information.

Answer 4

Well, I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 and Intellij IDEA Community Edition 2020.1.3 and i could only make the navigation work by using: ALT+SHIFT+← or ALT+SHIFT+→

Answer 5

I got this from IntelliJ site, I'm sure it will be helpful:

To navigate backwards, press ⌘+[. To navigate forward, press ⌘+].

To navigate to the last edited location, press ⇧+⌘+⌫.

To find the current caret location in the editor, press Ctrl+M. This action might be helpful if you do not want to scroll through a large file.

However, you can press the ↑ and ↓ arrow keys to achieve the same result.

To highlight a word at the caret you are trying to locate, select Edit | Find | Next Occurrence of the Word at Caret from the main menu.

To see on what element the caret is currently positioned, press ⌃+⇧+Q.

To move caret between matching code block braces, press ⌃+M.

To navigate between code blocks, press ⌥+⌘+[ or ⌥+⌘+].

Answer 6

It is Ctrl+Alt+← and Ctrl+Alt+→. See this help page.

Answer 7

I would suggest just go and select eclipse shortcuts option instead of default provided by IntelliJ idea ide
