Intellij IDEA: Pass java command arguments

I need to pass arguments after java but before class name at application startup in IDEA.

In "edit configuration" section "program arguments" adds options after class name.

I need this because of some features like --add-modules for java 9+. For example I want to make IDEA runs this*:

java --add-modules java.xml.ws com.pany.MainKt

But for now it does this:

java com.pany.MainKt --add-modules java.xml.ws

*All other arguments generated by IDEA are omitted for brevity.

You can set the VM options in the Edit configuration pane. Those will be added before the classname.

JVM arguments must be added to the "VM options" field:

java <some intellij stuff> <VM options> <Main class> <Program arguments>
