As you can see from the image above, every time I put my cursor to the end of curly brace, the related code (i.e. the one appeared on the left side of the image) pops up. This function is helpful when you want to see the beginning of the code snippet, but I don't want it to pop up all the time.
Does anyone know how to turn off this function in NetBeans IDE?
Go to Tools -> Options -> Editor and select General tab and uncheck Show tooltips. Click Apply and Ok.

I am using the Spyder which comes inside the Anaconda3 IDE. I found the Ipython Console here is very helpful in the sense that when I type in a function, the arguments and default values will come up automatically. When I used to use Jupyter notebook, there is no such functionality.
What I mean is like this:
When you just typed the function name and a left bracket, the Arguments help window just pop up.
However, my problem is that, sometimes, in the middle of this function completion, in this example, I finished typing bottom=a, but I forgot what should be passed to width, so let's say I pressed Alt+Tab in windows system to check it out in a PDF. Then I press Alt+Tab to switch back to Ipython console, but now the Arguments help window just dispeared.
My question is is there any shortcuts to make the it appear again? Typically, I just have to clear all my arguments, and go back to type the left bracket another time to make it appear to help me specify the arguments, but this is unkind.
Press shift+tab to get the argument window back.
Press ctrl+space to get the function window which appears after a dot (e.g. after "plt.").
Use the object inspector (renamed to the help window in later versions of Spyder). It gives the information you're looking for and much more!
In the main window, click on Tools -> Preferences -> Help -> Automatic connections -> check "IPython Console" and any others you'd like to use.
Go to the help tab which is defaulted to the top right of the main Spyder gui.
Click the gear on the top right of the help window and select "Rich Text"
Set the "Source" to "Console" on the upper left side of the "Help" tab.
In your IPython console, type plt.barh(.
Note the lock button next to the gear. This will lock the help window to the function while you continue to write code.
This info window you see down here appears every time some CSS property or HTML attribute is written. The one on the top contains documentation about that element, and I dont want it to appear as it is very annoying when coding.
How can I make it not appearing? I've searched on Tools - Hints but cant fins this option.
Tools->Options->Code Completion tab
Remove checkbox from "Auto popup documentation window"
Netbeans 8.2
Tools -> Options -> Editor -> Code Completion -> Auto popup documentation window
Click on Tools--->Java Platforms.
Classes tab will be open by default,please switch it to Javadoc tab!
There will be a manual entry for javadoc like http:\\docs.oracle.com/java/api/...,kindly click on Remove button,close this window and then restart Netbeans IDE!!!
This effect will be done and you won't be seeing any popups!
If it doesn't help,please leave a comment!
I love my keyboard. When coding(c++) in eclipse some time I do some syntactic mistakes. For example
std::String
it should have been std::string. I have been coding some java programs :p. What I m looking for is a way to display the error info
Type 'std::String' could not be resolved
using some keyboard shortcut. Instead of clicking on the bug icon that appears on the left side of the page. I know about CNTRL + '+' and '.' . So how do I do this ? Thanks
In the source code editor, pressing F2 while the (keyboard's) cursor is at at underlined text opens an overly window that contains the warning/error description. Works for JDT/java, so I assume it's the same for CDT/c++.
In addtion, (in JDT/java) pressing F2 on methods/classes without problem shows the javadoc in an overlay window.
I don't know about a keyboard shortcut for that, but here is another solution:
Open up the "Problems" view (Window -> Show View -> Problems) and position it wherever you like.
You can configure what problems are shown there by clicking on the small triangle in the upper right corner. There you have to select "Show -> Errors/Warnings on Selection". This way only errors in the currently edited file will be visible.
Now you have all your syntax errors in view without any keyboard interaction at all.
Screenshot:
Suppose I make a method signature change that breaks several callers, and I want to review the call sites manually to update them.
Once I change the signature, my "Problems" view shows, say, a dozen errors.
What keys can I hit to navigate through them while leaving the keyboard focus in the editor for fast fixups?
(It's been a while, but I think the Visual Studio equivalent is F8.)
Note that this question does not duplicate Eclipse: How to go to a error using only the keyboard (keyboard-shortcut)?, as that one seeks to navigate only between markers in the current file. In this case, I want to go to the next error regardless of which file it's in.
("Marker" is the general Eclipse term for errors, warnings, etc.)
The best I've come up with so far is Ctrl + F7 to flip to the Problems view, then ↓ to pick the topmost error, then Enter to go to it (which returns focus to the editor).
Here's a way to move to the next error, regardless of editor, in one keystroke. It's not perfect, but it works until it's fixed in Eclipse.
Open a "Markers" view. Click the down arrow at the top right, and choose "Configure Contents". Uncheck the show all box, and create the view to show only the problems you want to see. You'll probably want to deselect "warnings" and "errors" as well. Save it.
Click the same "Markers" down arrow, and choose "Group By". Select "None". This is important because you don't want the parent tree level nodes to show, otherwise some of your "next" actions will take you to those, which don't represent an error.
In Eclipse -> preferences -> keys, search for "Markers". If there is not a keystroke bound to the Markers view, create one. I use Ctrl + Shift + M
Get a keyboard hotkey tool like AutoHotKey (for PC's) or iKey for the Mac. I'm using iKey, but there are plenty of other Mac tools you can use. In your hotkey tool, define an action for the keystroke you want to use for "next error". I chose the standard CMD + .
For that keystroke/action in your hotkey tool, generate 3 keystrokes in the following order:
Ctrl + Shift + M
Down arrow
Enter
Of course, you'll want to change the first one to whatever you picked for yours. You'll probably want to restrict that action to be executed only when Eclipse is the current application.
Save that, create some compile errors, and test it.
Try Ctrl + 3 for Quick access popup window.
If the "Markers view" is not already visible, then type in "markers", in the searchbox on the popup window. Once you have selected it, it should stay available, when you press Ctrl + 3 the next time around.
I just had the same problem, after refactoring some parts of code. I had a lot of errors in different files and i had to go through all of those.
I used the following solution:
Mark all (relevant) entries in the Problems view.
To do this switch to the Problems view using Ctrl+F7 and select the entries with Shift+↓/↑
You can also select all entries using Ctrl+A
Open the marked errors by pressing ↵.
Every file containing at least one marked error will be opened.
The cursor will automatically select one error/file, as if you open only this specific entry
Fix the errors in the opened file.
Here you can use Ctrl+. to navigate to next error inside this file
Close the file using Ctrl+W when your done.
Eclipse will automatically focus the next file and you can go back to step 3
In my case this solution was much faster then switching to the Problems view each time.
There's an Eclipse bug entered for this that has an attachment that looks like it does what you want.
You could use AutoHotkey:
save the mouse position, send a mouse event to click on the arrow in CDT console and then return the mouse back to it's original location. Record the mouse coords with window spy or use autohotkey's search by image function (first capture the images of two arrows with printscreen into bitmaps).
I miss a certain functionality in Eclipse. I would like to know the name of the current function the cursor is currently inside. This is useful when browsing unknown code using the search function, for example.
Any idea how to show it? Maybe a plugin?
I'm using the "Toggle Breadcrumb" option from toolbar:
It shows a nice breadcrumb, ending with current function name.
It's quite handy for me, as Outline becomes cumbersome to use if you have zilions of functions.
It produces the following structure above your Java Editor (truncated at the picture below):
The "Outline" view shows the current function.
It may be necessary to enable the 'Link to Editor' option in the Outline View dropdown menu. This might be off by default for CDT.
I was looking for something similar (Xcode-like bar at the top showing the current function, where you can also go to another function by clicking on it to open a popup list of functions). Here is what I settled on with Eclipse 3.5.1 CDT:
I moved the Outline view to the top, resized it to make it a 1-line horizontal strip (don't make it too narrow), and selected "Link With Editor" in its menu, so that it always shows the current function. However, this doesn't open a popup list like Xcode. For that functionality, I assigned a shortcut to the "Show Outline" command which does open a popup list of all functions.
The Eclipse function 'show outline' will pop up a list of outline objects, and it will highlight the object your cursor is inside in grey. It's typically bound to 'ctrl-o' (the letter 'o', not zero), but you can re-bind it as you see fit. I'm running Eclipse with the CDT plugin and it works pretty well for me.
To enable the breadcrumb invoke Toggle Java Editor Breadcrumb in the toolbar or press Alt+Shift+B in the Java editor.
You can also display the Quick Outline (ctrl+o). This way you see the context quickly without having to have a permanent Outline Window linked to the Editor.
Use the "Link With Editor" option on the outline menu
Press Ctrl+o (cursor is currently inside a function at a particular line).
It highlights the current method, or name of the class if the cursor is outside the method body.
You can click on highlighted method.
It has got inline search feature ...start typing name of the method to navigate to the specified method or method with matching search pattern.
If you press again Ctrl+o to shows the inherited members/methods.
Using outline with "link with editor" option worked also for me, thanks!
Just an addition, you can move outline pane in to the same window group as search, progress etc. saves the space in your perspective instead of keeping it at another group.
