I am having an issue with the Remove Previous Word shortcut in MATLAB.
It works in the editor, but not in the command window. I tried to edit it in the keyboard shortcut preferences page, but you are only allowed to select MATLAB Editor in the Tools with shortcut section, it does not give you the option to add the Command Window.
Does anyone have a workaround for this, or at least know a reason why this wouldn't be implemented for the command window?

As shown in this screenshot there are 5 occurrences of the "Find" field. But hitting CMD-ENTER -as shown in the shortcut balloon help - does nothing.
Why is it not working/ what can be done to get it to to work? I detest using the mouse for extremely common operations especially Find/Replace.
It is a little odd that the binding is Cmd+Enter on the Mac, whereas it is Ctrl+Alt+Enter on Windows? Things to try:
The equivalent of Ctrl+Alt+Enter on the Mac (and you indicated that Cmd+Option+Enter does work).
Check in the Gear Icon/KeyboardShortcuts editor what the command editor.actions.replaceAll is bound to.
Check in the Keyboard Shortcuts (click on the little keyboard icon to the right and type Cmd+Enter) to see if it is bound to something besides editor.actions.replaceAll.
You can run the Developer: Toggle Keyboard Shortcuts Troubleshooting command from the Command Palette, type Cmd+Enter and see what command vscode finds for that keybinding.
You indicated that Cmd+Option+Enter does work as you expect.
I want to run the select code of python in VScode. Till now, I have to copy the code and paste it in the terminal below to run. The system is mac OS.
So is there any way to run the code directly after I selected the code? For example, like the shortcuts.
Thanks.
There is no default keybindings for command "Run Selected Text in Active Terminal", but you can create one.
Press Ctrl+K, Ctrl+S to open File → Preferences → Keyboard Shortcuts.
Search for workbench.action.terminal.runSelectedText in keybindings.
Press the icon on the left to open a windnow with this message "Press desired key combination..." and make your choice. (I've pressed Ctrl+Alt+R - as this combination was not used yet.)
Press Enter to store your keybinding.
Tested on VSCode 1.30.2 on Windows 10 Pro.
#yanachen, this is now possible in VS Code. All you need to do is:
1. Ensure python is running in the VS Code terminal window
2. Select the text you wish to execute in python
3. Invoke the command 'workbench.action.terminal.runSelectedText' as defined in the following link:
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/integrated-terminal#_key-bindings
Now it's supported by default shortcut "shift" + "enter".
select the proper code snippet
press "shift" + "enter"
Here is the setting for running selection in "interactive window."
In my VS Code (version 1.56.2), I do the following things: go to Settings, search for interactive window, in the resulting left panel choose Jupyter, and finally check the box next to Jupyter: Send selection to interactive window. That's it. One more step for some users (including me) is to modify the keybinding for running selection to your preference. For example, got to keyboard shortcuts, type run selection, you should see a list of keybindings and you may need to redefine them if conflicts exist.
Some language specific extensions have already an existing keybinding.
On Windows, for the PowerShell extension it is currently F8 to run the selected text.
Install the vscode extension Node.js Exec. then select the block of code you want to run and press f8. worked for me.
I use ctrl-backspace in MATLAB Editor (MATLAB 2015a) to remove the previous word, but it doesn't work in the command window. I tried changing it in Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts, but there doesn't seem to be the option to bind it to "Remove Previous Word" in the Command Window. In the attached image, you can see that it is set to work in the MATLAB Editor, but when clicking the down-arrow next to where it says MATLAB Editor, it does not show any other options.
This seems like a very common shortcut used by many Windows programs, and it's strange that it should only be allowed in the editor. If it's actually not allowed, why? Is there a workaround?
I tried to post an image of this but stack overflow says I'm not yet cool enough.
My MATLAB editor stopped working. I'm not able to open any file via UI or command (edit file.m). It all started when I was editing a script using matlab-emacs.
I found a workaround to open files, but it is annoying. First, I need to click with the right button of the mouse in the file I want to open. Then, I select Compare against > Choose. Clicking in one of the line numbers in the left panel opens the MATLAB editor. Once I'm in the editor, I can open any other file by choosing File > Open as Text.... I also tried reinstalling MATLAB, but the problem remained.
I am using MATLAB R2011a and Ubuntu 11.10.
I spent a big amount of time reinstalling it, when it was far more simple.
Select File > Preferences...
In Editor/Debugger, my editor was set as a blank Text editor, instead of MATLAB Editor.
Just pick MATLAB Editor in the radio button.
matlab-emacs extension probably changed my settings.
I've noticed that Ctrl+Backspace/Option+Delete doesn't delete the word to the left of cursor in the MATLAB editor, as it does in many (most?) other editors and programs. This is intensely annoying, as I often will want to change a function name or small section of code. Currently I am forced to hold shift, use option+left, and then press delete to perform what should be a two keystroke operation.
Is there a way to enable it, or is a similar shortcut available? I found this unanswered question on MATLAB Central, but no further joy.
Edit:
Running R2010a on OSX
Are you on R2010b?
At least on Windows, this is supported starting in R2010b. All the keyboard shortcuts are in File > Preferences, under Keyboard > Shortcuts. Type "word" in the search bar (the text field just above the list of actions) to see the word-level actions. In R2010b, but not earlier versions, there is a "Remove Previous Word" action, and in Windows it's bound by default to Ctrl+Backspace. Sounds like you're using Mac, too; I don't know what the default binding is there.
So, upgrade to R2010b, and maybe adjust the bindings under Keyboard > Shortcuts in Preferences.
This and some other keyboard shortcuts work in the editor but not in the command window. I don't know why. You might want to request that as an enhancement from MathWorks if you want it in the command window, too.
