I like to use Eclipse\'s shortcut Ctrl + O which outlines the current source. Is there an equivalent shortcut in IntelliJ IDEA?
It opens a dial
If you want a persistent/sticky/docked Tool Window instead of a temporary/transient dialog:
Ctrl+F12 works, because it is for file structure popup, which is similar to showing code in Eclipse.
The shortcuts are: Ctrl+Shift+N for files Ctrl+N for classes
Shortcuts:
Above works on IntelliJ versions 14 to 2020.
For some Linux kinds, and particularly for XFCE (like Xubuntu, Mint XFCE) a lot of default XWin keyboard layout mappings are not working.
This is because they overlap with assigned Window Manager -> Keyboard shortcuts. For the concrete question Ctrl+F12 is assigned to Workspace 12 which I doubt that many use at all.
The solution is to clear those Window manager assignments in Window Manager -> Keyboard tab. As a temporal workaround you may use IDEA actions via Find action Ctrl+Shift+A
There are other overlapping short keys. References:
I haven't used Eclipse for years, so I'm not that familiar with the behaviour you're after - but I believe Ctrl + F12 may do what you want: it is the shortcut for the File structure Popup in the default mapping.
