Sorry if this is not the right place to ask. I looked around and stackoverflow made the most sense to me. Plus it is a question that can be answered.
The specific task that I want to accomplish is I am working on an app in nw.js (it's like electron). To reload the app I right click on the page and the usual context menu comes up (the one with "inspect") and there is an option to reload the page.
When the debugger is stopped on a breakpoint that context menu doesn't show up. So in order to reload the app I have to move the mouse somewhere on the screen to close dev tools and then mouse back to the window to reload it. It makes working so much more tedious and while it only takes a moment it feels like an eternity.
Are there any flags in chrome or plugins or nw.js settings that will save me from doing this 763,000 times a day?

Earlier The Panel of vscode used to close when I killed the terminal. But after I reset my pc and reinstall vscode, this is not happening. I after killing all the terminals I have to click on the "Close Panel" Button to close it.
How can I close the panel automatically on killing the last terminal?
Thanks for help in advance.
So the lower panel (or right/left panel if you moved it) should always automatically close if the terminal-view has had all of its terminals closed.
Now, with the above said, their is one exception, which is a common exception: When you show there panel with a view — i.e. the problems view, output-logger, etc... — with the terminal-view, the behavior of the panel changes. In the context I just described, the panel will not automatically close.
To solve the issue, remove all other views that share the panel with the terminal view. Then you should find that you get the expected behavior.
FYI, this has worked this way for a long time, and a while back (2+ years ago) there was a somewhat supported feature request to make the closing behavior of the panel more configurable — e.g. like adding settings that close the panel when the terminal-view has no terminals open, even if it is in a shared panel — however, I checked all settings & release notes and GitHub before answering this, and it appears that the panel & terminal view, in the context of this question, still behave the way that they always have since the first newer release of the non-beta VS Code.
At risk of this being a trivial question, I need to know how to add more components (in the components explorer) in WindowBuilder for Eclipse Juno. I'm taking a dive and trying learn how to add a GUI to one of my personal projects. Right now all I have mustered up is just a JFrame that has a button that launches my program in the console with a little notification saying so. But what I am thinking about having is a "Start up Window" with just some stuff and button or something that says Enter application or something. So then I want a new window to pop up as a "Run Window". I have created a new JFrame as a "run window" and hide/set visibility of "startWindow" to false and get the result I want. But I want to be able to edit this new JFrame in the design window along with the default JFrame I started with.
Is there a way to do this? I tried right-clicking in the components window in the design view and it doesn't do anything. I also tried right-click the object from the project explorer and couldn't find anything. Am I missing something? Is this even possible?
The question seems to have 2 parts, so I will try to answer both of them.
1) Adding components directly in the components explorer
The only thing you could do, to get new components into there via right-click is "Surround with". For example you have a JPanel, right-click on it and click "Surround with...". You could try and put a JScrollPanel in there, so you can scroll your JPanel.
But the usual way to add components is by the "Palette", it contains a lot of components, that you can drag&drop into either the components-explorer or directly into your app Window -> Show View -> Palette.
2) Showing a certain window
If I understand this correctly, you want to show one window, click on a button and then show another window which has the same size etc. like the one before.
Setting the visibility for the first window to false and the second does work.
But under certain circumstances it's easier to use CardLayout.
Imagine a stack of cards, you can see only the first card. Then you click a button and now see the second card and so on.
See this: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/layout/card.html
for information and examples.
I am using Eclipse Juno. I was working in Java perspective and suddenly I minimized the console. I don't know where it went but I am unable to get it back. I even tried to get it from Windows>Show View>Console but I didn't get my console back.
It happened the same thing to me. Just click Window->Reset Perspective and everything will be back as it was when you installed eclipse.
Sure you'll have to customize it back to how you like it, but at least you'll have the console back.
If console is not visible, just search for "Console" in QuickAccess box on the right hand top of menu bar. you can get it back!
Stupid Eclipse. Are there no interface designers volunteering on this project? Why minimize something and make it hard to see where to bring it back? Probably all you have to do is hit Shift-Control-Tab-F9 with one hand while right-double-clicking the lower left hand corner. Hmm, how about a popup when you click a minimized Console that says "We see you've minimized your Console and you are clearly trying to switch to it. Would you like us to restore that so you can actually see it?" followed by "Are you really sure? Cuz ya know, you may be using this click path by accident."
The reset perspective works. Also, you can "Save Perspective" so it's not so hard to go back to your preferred Perspective.
Thanks for the tip.
Bring console to the front from Window -> Show View -> Console. Apparently the console remains invisible (that was the issue indeed), but it is virtually active in the foreground.
Close the current view (i.e. the invisible console) by going to the "Quick Access" box at the toolbar, typing "Close Part", and selecting the respective option on the drop-down.
Reopen console form Window -> Show View -> Console and voilà, it will appear. Drag it to your preferred location on the workbench.
This works for me under the following situation:
I had been previously playing with detaching several views (console included) and editors to a separate window on a different monitor; I have updated my workspace from Neon to Oxygen and I have had a hard reset at my computer. (So, not sure which among those was the reason that made it go wrong).
I wanted to avoid resetting my perspective, as it is highly customised, so I discarded that solution.
Other solutions herein proposed had not worked.
The console was working and the view became visible if I chose a different perspective (e.g. Debug) or a duplicate Eclipse window (which effectively provides a duplicate of a factory-reset perspective).
you could click the small icon on the bottom left and choose console. it will appear.
Recently switched from Linux to Windows for development in Eclipse Indigo SR1. In Linux, if I Ctrl-Space'd to open a Content Assist window, I could immediately start scrolling with the mouse wheel (with the cursor over the Content Assist window of course).
Now, in Windows 7, if I try to scroll in the same way the Content Assist window goes away, and whatever editor I have open is scrolled instead.
If I first press Tab to give focus to the Content Assist window, the mouse wheel scrolling works as expected, but I'd much rather it behaved as it did for me on Linux, rather than retrain myself to press Tab every time.
Is there a way to make the mouse work this way with Eclipse?
Found an answer that appears to work. It's a little dated but seems to still do the trick.

Dropped this jar in the eclipse plugins folder and restarted. At first I thought it didn't work, but later I noticed there is a little X button added to your toolbar that you need to toggle. Scrolling seems to work properly now.
I recently updated my Eclipse (now running 20100218-1602), and I've found whenever I click around quickly between tabs on the tab bar, it will sometimes maximize the editor and hide the PHP Explorer to the left. After researching a little, this appears to be a feature of double clicking a tab. So I guess it's my fault, I'm sure I'm clicking around too fast and mistakenly double clicking a tab, but it happens often enough on what I'd consider a normal editing session that I've come to absolutely loathe it, and even after the usual googling due diligence cannot figure out how to turn it off.
From this post someone mentions the Window.AutoHideAll shortcut, however that seems to only be for assigning keyboard shortcuts--this is a mouse click thing. But maybe it's a clue.
I can't find anything relevant under Eclipse -> Preferences -> PHP. I don't think it's specific to PHP because if I switch to the Java perspective, double clicking a tab hides the Package Explorer.
Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks!
You could settle for a simpler solution than some arcane settings or shortcut:
resize your Eclipse main windows a bit smaller
drag the views you do not want to be covered after a "tab double-click" outside the main Eclipse window
there is no 3.
When you double-click, the Editor will cover only the main Eclipse window, while the other views will still be visible just beside that window.
