How to make Netbeans window undecorated? - netbeans

I'm using Netbeans IDE on tiny screen of my laptop, so I don't want to waste space for its titlebar. Is there any option in menus or command line that can remove it?

One option (and most probably the only option) is to put NB into full screen mode. To do this you can use the View > Full Screen menu item (Alt + Shift + Enter).
Note that I'm running on Windows and I can't really say what Gnome will do with this.

VSCode: Not enough space to split terminal

In Visual Studio Code, there is a thing similar to command prompt in windows. It is called Terminal. In the past, I normally opened more than 3 tabs of this Terminal. However, in recent updates it displays this error when I try to open more than 3 tabs.
Not enough space to split terminal.
Is there a solution or a workaround for this?
Workaround:
Menu: View -> Appearance -> Toggle Panel Position (it moves terminals to the bottom) or right-click the "TERMINAL" or other tab and select "Move Panel to Bottom".
You can now open an additional terminal (or more) and then use the same menu option to move them back to the right and it will keep the additional terminals open.
There is a workaround - at least when You're using Ubuntu. You just have to unmaximize the window and resize it to make it bigger then Your screen size. Then You can split the terminal and can freely go back to initial window size.
Unfortunately, as far as I know, Windows won't allow You to have a window bigger that Your screen size. I don't know about Mac though.

PhpStorm - Full view on single file

I just started to use PhpStorm and wonder how I can enter full view for a single file?
In NetBeans I could just double click on the file:
...then the full view for that file was shown:
After double clicking on the file again, the normal view is shown again.
Is this also possible in JetBrains PhpStorm?
This is not currently possible.
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-82829 -- watch this ticket (star/vote/comment) to get notified on any progress.
(P.S. This IDEA-166351 looks the same .. so may be marked as duplicate of the first ticket at some point).
To be clear: hiding all tool windows is easy (double click on editor tab or Window | Active Tool Window | Hide All Windows -- Ctrl + Shift + F12 using Default keymap) -- it's "Maximize current editor tab and hide all other tabs" what is missing (absent feature).
Yes, also on JetBrains IDEs (PhpStorm, WebStorm, etc.) is possible to double click on an editor tab to hide the rest of toolbars and sections and get a full clear view of the editor; then if you double click again on the editor tab, you can return to your previous IDE disposition.
Also you can use Ctrl + Shift + F12 combination to hide/show all tool windows. (see here: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/2016.3/manipulating-the-tool-windows.html#d883741e144)

Eclipse in Ubuntu starting without any window visible (only menu bar)

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 and Eclipse Kepler. Since yesterday I've been experiencing a strange issue: when I open up Eclipse, all that I'm seeing is the menu bar on the upper Ubuntu bar. No code editor, window whatsoever.
In order to see a window I go to Window -> New window, but this is just a workaround. It starts up a new window with no preferences set, no last edited files etc. Moreover it shows that I have 2 Eclipse windows opened, while I can only see 1.
Any ideas on how to fix that?
I agree with Gorka, it looks like it was related with window size.
Here my solution (worked for me on Ubuntu 14.04):
1) Switch to Eclipse so that menu header is visible (you can use Alt+Tab or click on Eclipse icon in the list of applications)
2) Press Ctrl+Super+ArrowUp (Super=Windows button usually between Ctrl and Alt)
This combination maximizes active window, so it restores Eclipse to full screen.
Go to Window -> Show Toolbar. That should fix your issue.
Edit: Also try Window -> Close All Perspectives. Now, Window -> Open Perspective -> Other... and select Java (default).
I had exactly the same problem, the only solution I could find was to download the newest Eclipse version from www.eclipse.org instead of from the Ubuntu repository.
I had the same issue and I've found out what was happening:
The problem was that the size of the eclipse window had been reduced to the minimum, see my desktop in http://i.imgur.com/lTlgOvb.jpg and notice the small vertical line in the top-left corner. This small line is the eclipse window, so just go with the cursor and make the it bigger.
I had exactly the same problem happening on only one workspace I had setup within Eclipse. I pressed some keyboard shortcut to make it happen but didn't know what that shortcut was (fat fingers meant I pressed a key I didn't mean to) and now can't reverse it! All other workspaces loaded up fine.
Managed to resolve it by Clicking on Window -> New Window!
I was having the same issue and got to fix it by just maximizing the windows (window button + up arrow key).. lol
stupid, but worked.

Keyboard shortcut to change font size in Eclipse?

It is relatively straightforward to change font sizes in Eclipse through preferences (and answered several times in this forum).
However I'd like to change font size quickly (e.g., with Ctrl++ and Ctrl+- like in Linux terminal or Ctrl+mouse wheel in MS Office apps). Is there a way to do this in Eclipse?
Eclipse Neon (4.6)
Zoom In
Ctrl++
or
Ctrl+=
Zoom Out
Ctrl+-
This feature is described here:
In text editors, you can now use Zoom In (Ctrl++ or Ctrl+=) and Zoom Out (Ctrl+-) commands to increase and decrease the font size.
Like a change in the General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts preference page, the commands persistently change the font size in all editors of the same type. If the editor type's font is configured to use a default font, then that default font will be zoomed.
So, the font size change is not limited to the current file and the new value of the font size is available here Window > Preferences > General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts.
I know it has been long since the original question was posted, but for future reference:
check this project, https://github.com/gkorland/Eclipse-Fonts
I have used it, and it's very simple and efficient.
Take a look at this project: http://code.google.com/p/tarlog-plugins/downloads/detail?name=tarlog.eclipse.plugins_1.4.2.jar&can=2&q=
It has some other features, but most importantly, it has Ctrl++ and Ctrl+- to change the font size, it's awesome.
The Eclipse-Fonts extension will add toolbar buttons and keyboard shortcuts for changing font size. You can then use AutoHotkey to make Ctrl+Mousewheel zoom.
Under Help | Install New Software... in the menu, paste the update URL (http://eclipse-fonts.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/FontsUpdate/) into the Works with: text box and press Enter. Expand the tree and select FontsFeature as in the following image:
Complete the installation and restart Eclipse, then you should see the A toolbar buttons (circled in red in the following image) and be able to use the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+- and Ctrl+= to zoom (although you may have to unbind those keys from Eclipse first).
To get Ctrl+MouseWheel zooming, you can use AutoHotkey with the following script:
; Ctrl+MouseWheel zooming in Eclipse.
; Requires Eclipse-Fonts (https://code.google.com/p/eclipse-fonts/).

Then, to change Java editor font: Java > Java Editor Text Font > EDIT
There it is.
Oddly, working on a .js file and Ctrl, Shift, += works to zoom in (and Ctrl - works to zoom out but you have to select 1 or 2 after Ctrl -). This only works when I'm in the js file but the zoom applies to all my open tabs. Using Eclipse Juno on Ubuntu.
In Eclipse Neon.3, as well as in the new Eclipse Photon (4.8.0), I can resize the font easily with Ctrl + Shift + + and -, without any plugin or special key binding.
At least in Editor Windows (this does not work in other Views like Console, Project Explorer etc).
Found a great plugin that works in Juno and Kepler. It puts shortcuts on the quick access bar for increasing or decreasing text size.
Install New Software -> http://eclipse-fonts.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/FontsUpdate/
I use an Eclipse plugin (in Eclipse Marketplace)
https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/fontsize
Here's a quicker way than multi-layer menus without resorting to plug-ins:
Use the Quick Access tool at the upper left corner.
Type in "font", then, from the list that drops down, click on the link for "Preferences->Colors and Fonts->General->Appearance".
One click replaces the 4 needed to get there through menus. I do it so often, my Quick Access tool pulls it up as a previous choice right at the top of the list so I can just type "font" with a tap on the enter key and Boom!, I'm there.
If you want a keyboard shortcut, Ctrl+3 sets the focus to the Quick Access tool. Better yet, this even automatically brings up a list with your previous choices. The last one you chose will be on top, in which case a simple Ctrl+3 followed by enter would bring you straight there! I use this all the time to make it bigger during long typing or reading sessions to ease eye strain, or to make it smaller if I need more text on the screen at one time to make it easier to find something.
It's not quite as nice as zooming with the scroll wheel or with a simple Ctrl+ or Ctrl-, but it's a lot better than navigating through the menus every time!

Eclipse IDE: How to zoom in on text?

I want the same behaviour Firefox has, when you use the scroll button in the mouse to zoom in and out on the current view.
Is there something like it for eclipse?
There is a project from a guy called 'tarlog' that made a plugin for eclipse at this google code site: http://code.google.com/p/tarlog-plugins/downloads/detail?name=tarlog.eclipse.plugins_1.4.2.jar&can=2&q=
It has some other features for eclipse, amongst which is Ctrl++ and Ctrl+- to change the font size, it's frickin' awesome.
Too late but it could be helpful :
Go to Window Menu > Preferences > General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts
then go to Java > Java Editor Text Font > Edit

Starting from tonight nightly build of 4.6/Neon, the Eclipse Platform includes a way to increase/decrease font size on text editors using Ctrl+ and Ctrl- (on Windows or Linux, Cmd= and Cmd- on Mac OS X) : https://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/news/4.6/M4/#text-zoom-commands . The implementation is shipped with any product using a recent build of the platform, and is more reliable that the one in the alternative plugins mentioned above.
It will be more widely available within weeks, when the IDE packages for Neon M4 will be available, and it will be part of the public Neon release in June 2016.
I've answered it here.
How can I change font size in Eclipse for Java text editors?
For Eclipse Neon
To Increase Ctrl +
To reduce Ctrl -
For Zoom In: CTRL + SHIFT + +
For Zoom Out: `CTRL + SHIFT + -
To zoom on Eclipse you can use : CTRL SHIFT + OR -
As per the recent changes you can use:
(1) Ctrl/Shift/(+) for Zoom-in
(2) Ctrl/Shift/(-) for Zoom-out
As mentioned in another answer, this plugin
http://code.google.com/p/tarlog-plugins/downloads/detail?name=tarlog.eclipse.plugins_1.4.2.jar&can=2&q=
makes Ctrl-+ and Ctrl-- zoom in and out. On MacOS that would be ⌘+ and ⌘-.
But at least on MacOS Lion and Eclipse Helios, ⌘- worked but not ⌘+ – no key combination (and I tried a bunch, including ⌘= and variants with Ctrl and Shift) would increase font size. However, by changing the key bindings, I was able to get it to work.
Preferences => General => Keys
Commands "Zoom Out" and "Decrease Font" were already set to ⌘- (and that seemed to work), so I set "Zoom In" and "Increase Font" to ⌘= (one of them was that and the other was ⌘+), and that worked.
go to Eclipse > Prefences > General > Appearance > Color and Fonts > Basic > Text Font
Font problem will resolved I guess.Dont need a any plugin for this.
Just by pressing Ctrl + Shift + '+' or '-'.
At least, it worked for me at Eclipse "2020-03" version.
Here is a cool way of ensuring zoom in and zoom out with mouse scroll-wheel in the Eclipse Editor. This one takes inspiration from the solution above from naveed ahmad which was not working for me.
1) First download Autohotkey from http://www.autohotkey.com/ and install it, then run it.
2) Then download tarlog-plugins from https://code.google.com/p/tarlog-plugins/downloads/list
3) Put the downloaded .jar file in the eclipse/plugins folder.
4) Restart Eclipse.
5) Add the following Autohotkey script, save it then reload it (right click on Autohotkey icon in taskbar and click "Reload this script")
; Ctrl + MouseWheel zooming in Eclipse Editor.
; Requires Tarlog plugins (https://code.google.com/p/tarlog-plugins/).
#IfWinActive ahk_class SWT_Window0
^WheelUp:: Send ^{NumpadAdd}
^WheelDown:: Send ^{NumpadSub}

And you should be done. You can now zoom in or zoom out with ctrl+mousewheel up and ctrl+mousewheel down. The only caveat is that Autohotkey must be running for this solution to work so ensure that it starts with Windows or run it just before firing Eclipse up. Works fine in Eclipse Kepler and Luna.
The googlecode fontsupdate does not work anymore unfortunately. You can however just download the code from github:
https://github.com/gkorland/Eclipse-Fonts
Just download it as .zip, and add it in eclipse:
Adding a local plugin
Then you have the familiar buttons again!
On Mac you can do
Press 'Command' and '+' buttons to zoom in.
press 'Command' and '-' buttons to zoom out.
Even more reliable than #mifmif :
Go to Window Menu > Preferences > General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts
then go to Basic.
This section has about 5 different fonts in it, all of which contain a size. If you go to an item in any other section (like Java > Java Editor Text Font as #mifmif suggested) the Edit Default and Go to Default buttons will be enabled. Clicking the latter takes you to the corresponding item in the Basic section. Clicking the former lets you edit that item directly.
Changing the Basic font items will handle not only Java text but just about every other text in Eclipse that can be resized, as far as I can tell.
Here's a quicker way than multi-layer menus without resorting to plug-ins:
Use the Quick Access tool at the upper left corner.
Type in "font", then, from the list that drops down, click on the link for "Preferences->Colors and Fonts->General->Appearance".
One click replaces the 4 needed to get there through menus. I do it so often, my Quick Access tool pulls it up as a previous choice right at the top of the list so I can just type "font" with a tap on the enter key and Boom!, I'm there.

I use this all the time to make it bigger during long typing or reading sessions to ease eye strain, or to make it smaller if I need more text on the screen at one time to make it easier to find something.
It's not quite as nice as zooming with the scroll wheel, but it's a lot better than navigating through the menus every time!
What I am doing is using the Windows 10 magnifier. Not the same as zooming on firefox, but it has been quite useful.
The tarlog plugin, combined with removing -Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts from eclipse.ini, helps my tired eyes on MacOS Yosemite with Eclipse Luna (4.4).
Problem: Didn't work for me for a PyDev foo.py Python file.
Workaround: Open a file named foo.java - change the font size. Go back to foo.py and voila!! - the python font size matches the java font size.
