I'm looking around their shortcuts page but can't seem to find the shortcut to filter different CSS Rules.
Does anyone know how I can access it? In my experience sometimes these things don't get documented, and would be helpful if anyone can clarify.
Shortcuts Link
I want to be able to access this area here:
Thanks
I had a quite look at the source code and there doesn't appear to be a shortcut key combination for that. You can, of course, put in a feature request for one to be implemented. However, we'd have to consider what shortcut would be appropriate to use.
There's an alternative shortcut in terms of tab indexes in the Elements panel. By default, when you go to Elements, the body element is expanded. If you have no links in the outer elements inside the body, you only have to press the tab key twice to get to the style filter. If you have links, then it may be a few more times. However, you can press the left keyboard shortcut once to collapse the body, then tab twice. This means for the use case of just coming into the Elements panel (i.e. you haven't already been playing around in it), using left>tab>tab could be good enough.

How can I toggle on and off the display of Type hints in VS Code? For example, I've got the code .remoteOf(ClassServiceClient.class) and what I see is .remoteOf(CLAZZ:ClassServiceClient.class) but I can't actually select or seem to interact with the CLAZZ word.
How do I toggle this on and off? It seems useful in certain situations, but it just makes me think I typoed something.
I'm sure this has been asked before, but I haven't been able to come up with a word that seems to describe this feature.
This feature is called Inlay Hints and can be found under the Editor section.
After this, I've gone from displaying clazz:#Log4J2 to #Log4J2, and have enabled the option to display this hint by holding down a set of keys, ctrl + alt by default on Windows.
I have a VSCode extension that helps me autocomplete file paths, however many file paths grow long and are truncated in the VSCode intellisense popover window.
How can I set VSCode to either:
have a fixed width that I can set to be large
automatically expand to fit the intellisense options (preferable)
I happen to have written the extension so if needed I can update it if that is required.
One way around this is to press Ctrl + Space (or what ever your "Trigger suggestion" shortcut is) while the suggestion popover is open to show more detail about current selection.
So this (where I can't differentiate between the Trans imported from #lingui/macro and the one from #lingui/react):
Becomes this:
I don't think this is possible, VSCode generally gives extensions very little control over the built-in UI. See also the Restrictions section of the Extensions Capabilities Overview. Technically there is a way to hack around that, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it.
There are also a number of settings for the suggest widget, but none of them seems to correspond directly to width. The closest you can get would be reducing the font size with "editor.suggestFontSize".
I just read this post about there being no way to fully use the stylus buttons, nor movements:
http://www.autohotkey.com/board/topic/91828-stylus-middle-mouse-button-emulation/
And I think that there should be some available workaround for this by now.
To clearly state my question: Is there a way to use AutoHotkey (or other program) to modify the stylus buttons (including the on screen actions like click and hold) in a similar fashion as the keyboard?
An example of what I am looking for in AutoHotkey is to be able to press pen against screen and at the same time click any button as a hotkey using e.g. GetKeyState.
One suboptimal workaround that I know for this is to use something like these: http://alternativeto.net/software/strokesplus/
And have them send some keyboard combination as output, which AutoHotkey can act on. This would probably work, but would require another program, and essentially make AutoHotkey redundant for the most basic things. Once you add GetKeyState etc functionality from AutoHotkey the two together should make for a vast amount of possible combinations not possible by either alone though.
Doe anybody know of an eclipse plugin, which can be used to insert short text (in the form of memo) to remember what that line of code does or a block of code does to help me understand the existing code better and i can also refer it back later on.
Just like "Task" can be added on a line of code, although i can use "tasks" for this purpose, but that is not very convenient and intuitive.
If you want to add a short text to "remember what that line of code does or a block of code does to help me understand the existing code better", use comments. That's what they're for, and practically every formal language in the world has them.
If you want the ability to quickly jump to an arbitrary point in the code, using bookmarks is a convenient option - right click the bar immediately left of the text and choose to add a bookmark. You can then easily jump between bookmarks with the "bookmark view", which you can enable from the Window -> Show View menu.
The closest thing I can think of is bookmark support. There is native bookmark support in Eclipse and also several other vendors supply more function.
I'm assuming that there's a very good reason that you don't want to or can't modify the code.
as most of us surely do every now and then, I try to improve my workflow. As Eclipse is my main IDE, I wondered if it may be possible to use it without mouse. I browsed the available shortcuts and tried to use them instead of my mouse. I found interesting features like Ctrl+3 which opens something like the Apple spotlight.
I know there are a lot of questions concerning favorite shortcuts etc. but I'd like to know if it works because at the moment it feels a bit squishy 100% without mouse.
So is anyone out there using Eclipse like that? And are there some hints to ease the change?
Yes, it is possible. For a start, check out 10 Eclipse navigation shortcuts every java programmer should know. When you use these 10 shortcuts and some of the shortcuts of the comments, you will already see a big performance boost.
The "open type" and "open resource" dialogs are CamelCase-sensitive, so when typing "NPE" in the open type dialog, I get two matching items NoPermissionException and NullPointerException. So using good names with consistent spelling is a must.
Ctrl+F11 starts a program, F11 debugs it. Note howewer to check if in Window-Preferences-Run/Debug-Launching the value of "Launch Operation" is set to your needs.
You may want to customize the search dialog (Ctrl+h) to only show the file search (default is to context sensitively present you with different search tabs).
Ctrl+n allows you to create something new (opens a wizard with an initial filter text to filter the possible next pages).
I'm a blind programmer who uses eclipse. While there are plenty of shortcuts I find people often overlook using menus from the keyboard. If there's a function you use a lot that doesn't appear to be supported with keyboard shortcuts you can either create a shortcut to it in prefferences or use keyboard shortcuts such as alt+f to access the file menu and a one letter combination that allows you to access the item. For example hit alt+f then a to access the save as dialog. The underlined letter is the one you want to hit once in the menu.
There are a couple of things you can do to improve your keyboard:mouse usage ratio with Eclipse.
First off, if you push Ctrl-Shift-L, it shows you a master list of all the shortcuts you can use. If you know what you want to do, this is usually a quicker way of doing it without having to dig through menus, and as a bonus, you will learn some shortcuts you didn't know before.
The other thing you can try is a plugin called MouseFeed which looks promising. It tells you the shortcut for any menu item you use and if there isn't one, reminds you to create one. It essentially acts as training wheels until you become as close to 100% keyboard use as possible. I'm not sure how well it works in 3.4, but you can give it a shot.
Hope that helps.
Here you get an Eclipse Shortcut Overview PDF file of all key bindings. This file you can print and put beside your keyboard if you wish.
