Eclipse keyboard shortcut for error - eclipse

Is there a keyboard shortcut to view below error without having to hover over my mouse.

Moving the cursor to some red-underlined text, in my Eclipse the error message is then also shown in the status bar (bottom-left of the window). It's not always exactly the same text as is given in the mouse-over-popup, but usually close enough to figure out what's wrong.
Going to the error with Cmd/Ctrl+. should place the cursor at the right spot to show the error message in the status bar.

Windows and Linux
Go to the next error: Ctrl + .
Go to the previous error: Ctrl + ,
Show quick fixes: Ctrl + 1
Mac
Go to the next error: Cmd + .
Go to the previous error: Cmd + ,
Show quick fixes: Cmd + 1
Found the answer here

Go to the next error: Ctrl + .
Go to the previous error: Ctrl + ,
Show quick fixes: Ctrl + 1
Show suggestions and quick fixes: F2
So F2 servers the purpose of bubble which shows suggestions and on clicking quick fixes for multiple error on the same line. With F2 one just have to propagate through each error.

When I press ⌘ + N I get an error that says "no source actions available" when in a text file

I don't know what happened to my vscode but when I press ⌘ + N I get an error that says no source actions available.
This used to work fine. I'm in a text file when doing this. If I go to the menu and look at what the shortcut for new text file is, it shows ⌘ + N.
Is something misconfigured?

comment lines with syntax error

I am using Eclipse Java EE IDE for WebDevelopers in Version Luna (4.4.2).
Is there any way to comment lines with syntax error via shortcut automatically? I mean not just CTRL + / on every line (with syntax errors) manually.
There is no one short cut to do what you require, but you could use a combination.
Windows Short Cuts
Go to the next error: Ctrl + .
Go to the previous error: Ctrl + ,
Then
Comment that error: Ctrl + /

If you really wanted you could download a add-on and create a macro to automate the two short cuts into one.

Thought I would chime in with some helpful shortcuts from my other answer:
If you can't remember all shortcuts, then just learn Ctrl + Shift + L. That will show a list of available shortcuts.

Aptana Studio 3 - text font size minimizing with Ctrl + -

hello I have recently installed aptana studio 3 again and I am having where my text font size minimizes when I do the command (Ctrl + -). I am talking about the font under General->Appearance->Colors and Fonts->Basic->Text Font. This command works like in photoshop/illustrator where the size minimizes. However I do not want this command because I usually press it on accident. I have looked under keys and I can't find this command so I can change it. It wouldn't be so bad but the command Ctrl + + doesn't upsize the font like it normally does in other applications. Any suggestions?
Try holding down your shift key: CTRL + SHIFT + +
Aptana Studio 3 has a problem with shortcuts.
I accidentally zoomed out my code and as I'm in Portuguese Keyboard, Ctrl Shift + didn't work to back to the default zoom value.
The solution to this problem (probably many other keyboard set's are having this problem) is to change your language preferences (Win Key space OR find it in Control Panel), to English keyboard.
Then with the help of this image, I find the + is the first key to left of the backspace.
This way you could go back to 100% zoom by hitting, Ctrl Shift (first key to left of the backspace)
Very strange situation ...
Select the whole page you are writing the code.click on the right button of the mouse. click preference.In the above of the window, there are a link named "Colors and Fonts",click here.click edit.

How to go to an error using only the keyboard in Eclipse?

Let's say I have a file with 10 lines and I have a problem with the name of the package (or something) and the cursor is on the last line of the text.
How can I go directly to that line to see what the problem is and what suggestions there are to remove the problem, using a shortcut?
Question: Is there a keyboard-shortcut for this?
Or something like this:
Go to the next error and Go to the previous error.
Windows and Linux
Go to the next error: Ctrl + .
Go to the previous error: Ctrl + ,
Show quick fixes: Ctrl + 1
Mac
Go to the next error: Cmd + .
Go to the previous error: Cmd + ,
Show quick fixes: Cmd + 1
To go to problem within project just type Shift+Alt+Q then press X. It will open the "Problems" window. Now use ↑ or ↓ to select the error/warning and press Enter to go to it.
I know it isn't simple as Crtl+. but it works for a whole project.
To complete the previous answers, you can use the combobox linked to the toolbar buttons for next/previous annotation to set the annotation level.
That makes browsing through errors using ctrl+./ ctrl+ easier,

Eclipse jump to closing brace

What is the keyboard short cut in Eclipse to jump to the closing brace of a scope?
Place the cursor next to an opening or closing brace and punch Ctrl + Shift + P to find the matching brace. If Eclipse can't find one you'll get a "No matching bracket found" message.
edit: as mentioned by Romaintaz below, you can also get Eclipse to auto-select all of the code between two curly braces simply by double-clicking to the immediate right of a opening brace.
As the shortcut Ctrl + Shift + P has been cited, I just wanted to add a really interesting feature: just double-click to the immediate right of the {, and Eclipse will select the whole code block between the opening { and corresponding closing }. Similarly, double-click to the immediate left of the closing '}' and eclipse will select the block.
With Ctrl + Shift + L you can open the "key assist", where you can find all the shortcuts.
On the Macintosh, place the cursor after either the opening or closing curly brace } and use the keys: Shift + Command + P.
To select content use Alt + Shift + Up arrow
To select content up to the next wrapping block press this shortcut again
To go back one step press Alt + Shift + Down arrow. This is also a useful shortcut when you need to select content in a complex expression and do not want to miss something.
Press Ctrl + Shift + P.
Before Eclipse Juno you need to place the cursor just beyond an opening or closing brace.
In Juno cursor can be anywhere in the code block.
I found that if the chosen perspective doesn't match the type of the current file, then "go to matching brace" doesn't work. However, changing perspectives makes it work again. So, for example, when I have a PHP file open, but, say, the Java perspective active, pressing Ctrl + Shift + P does nothing. For the same file with the PHP perspective active, pressing Ctrl + Shift + P does exactly what you'd expect and puts my cursor beside the closing brace relative to the one it started at.
