I just installed the current eclipse application and noticed two strange things in the Editor.
When I move to the scrollbar of the Editor it shows me a mouse wheel icon.
On the bottom right it shows me 2 arrow icons.
How do I disable those?
This is not added by Eclipse. Likely a feature of your mouse driver. Look for relevant settings in the mouse control panel.

Problem: Detaching the Outline section from Explorer and moving it to the right side.
Tried: right-clicking, changing the settings - cannot find where and how the Outline section be detached from Explorer.
Question: is it possible to detach the Outline Panel from Explorer Panel?
Is there another extension, which the same functionality as Outline, which could be placed on the right side?
Thank you!
This should be supported directly in VSCode 1.64 (Jan. 2022), with the new side panel.
New Side Panel
This milestone, we introduce the Side Panel, a new surface in the workbench to house views from the Side Bar or the bottom Panel appearing opposite the Side Bar.
Unlike the historical ability to move the bottom Panel to the left or the right of the editor, the new Side Panel works in addition to the bottom Panel so you can see more sets of views at once.
To use the Side Panel, you'll need to move some views over to it.
Based on one of our most upvoted feature requests, you might want to move Outline from the Side Bar to Side Panel.
You can do this by dragging and dropping the view into the Side Panel.
If the Side Panel is not open, just like the bottom Panel, dragging a view to the edge of the editor area, will pop it open.
Alternatively, you can use the Move View command for something more keyboard friendly.
Moving Outline View to the Side Panel:
Yes you can, click on the Outline Title Bar and you can move it to any other panel, even the bottom Problems/Terminal panel.
You don't need any special extension for it. Almost all panels can be moved around in VSCode
You cannot have a Floating Window however.
You also Cannot have Two Sidebars
If you want to have the sidebar to the right go to View - Appearance - Move Side Bar Right
As of now, no you cannot have two sidebars, this is the issue tracking that feature.
I can suggest an alternative, you can move the outline to the bottom panel, where the terminal is so that you can have both at the same time but just not as a sidebar.
like this:
or like this but attaching two Bottom Panel tabs together.
Here is a Demo on how to do it
So after a lot of searching, I finally came up with my own solution. Apologies in advance for the poor screenshot quality. I used Microsoft's Steps Recording not realizing the image compression would be so poor.
First, open up a new terminal (Ctrl+Shift+`)
Make sure that the terminal tab is active in the panel. Right click the terminal name on the right-hand side and select "Move into editor area.
"
You can then right-click the now-tabbed Terminal in your editor space and select "Split down."
Your editor should look like the image below. However, we're not done yet! Here's where the magic happens. Open another terminal.
Things will look weird but this is going to work.
Click the "Outline" header in the sidebar and drag it into the bottom terminal panel:
Sidebar > (Outline) > Terminal Panel
Next, right-click on the tab bar of the bottom panel and select "Move Panel Right"
Et voila! You should how have a sidebar on the left, and Outline on the right, and a Terminal on the bottom!
I am using eclipse neon to program in Java.
Im talking about the veritical bar on the left where it shows the little error icon. Normally I would go hover over it and it would show a description and I could click to see automatic resolutions.
Then I decided I would be adventurous and play with some editor settings...
Now somehow when I hover over the error icon what pops up is a small box with 2 icons. a breakpoint icon and an error icon. the breakpoint icon is always right under my mouse. so if I just click again it adds a breakpoint. So now I have to go hover over the problem icon, then that thing pops up then I need to move over to the right just a tad to get back over the problem description before I can see the popup for that and/or click it to see the auto-resolutions.

Anyone have any idea what setting I messed with that caused this so I can undo it?
Disable "Expand vertical ruler icons upon hovering" option in Windows > Preferences > Java > Editors > Hovers
Note that the change will take effect only after closing and reopening the editor.
See this bug for more details.
I want to enlarge the code I've written in NetBeans so it's easier to read. I can enlarge the output by using ctrl and '+', but it doesn't work on the code. Does anyone know how to do this?
Alt+Scroll Wheel (on mouse) will do it. If you want to change the font size, go to Tools>Options>Fonts&Colors [note: this is a large icon/tab]. From there, in the Syntax tab (default) click Default, then the '...' button next to Font. Change the font size here, and click Okay. Other fonts inherit this size, so that should be the only change.
Happy coding!
press { ALT (your keyboard) + Scroll wheel (your mouse) };
NetBeans 7.2 changes the behaviour slightly – now you need to initiate a press down click on the scroll wheel whilst scrolling to increase/decrease the font size. No keyboard assistance required!

Just press "alt" and scrool and normally it's oke
Visit here and download the zooming plugin.
Steps to Install Plugin:
Open Tools
Select Plugin
Goto Available Plugins Tab
Search for Zoom and install the plugin
Restart NetBeans
If you want to zoom In/Out the code file /source window use this below method.
press Alt key+ scroll Mouse wheel up for Zoom In and scroll Mouse wheel down for Zoom Out
If you want to zoom In/Out the output window/terminal use this below method.
press Ctrl key+ scroll Mouse wheel up for Zoom In and scroll Mouse wheel down for Zoom Out
Lots of "mouse driven" answers here. But not everyone uses a mouse anymore. To Zoom In/Out of the Output Window of Netbeans 11.x do this, it's simple.
Press Ctrl while pressing the Arrow Up (to zoom in) and Arrow Down (to zoom in) keys on your keyboard.
Is there any keyboard short cut in netbeans for toggling between project panel.
For example if I'm working on a laptop and sometime I need for space for see the code window and always I have to click on the project's panel to hide it.
Is there any way I can quickly hide and show that left side thing?
You can use Shift + ESCAPE to maximize the current window (e.g. the code editor).
Alternatively, right click on the editor's tab for the current file and choose "Maximize"
you can use shift+esc to hide or show your project panel.
I recently started using Eclipse Juno (4.2) on Fedora Linux. In prior versions of eclipse I could simply click and drag a source file name to the edge of the screen and split my window with the mouse. Now when I click+drag Eclipse brings up some green outlines and I can't figure out how to accept the change without hitting Enter on the keyboard. Does anyone know if its possible to bring back the prior behavior where the mouse can do everything?
Thanks!
Edit: Sounds like there may be a bug in Eclipse, at least when using Fedora 17 64-bit.
Now you have a green rectangle that represent the area that will be occupied when you release the mouse button, however the procedure still the same you have to drag the editor and drop the editor in the desired area ...
Just move the mouse with the left button clicked and you will notice that the green rectangles change and when you have a rectangle with double borders you can release the mouse button ...
