Answer 3

Yes. you can't remember all the shortcuts. You will forget many of them for sure. In this way, you can recall it and get the work done quickly.

Press Ctrl+3

And type whatever the hell you want :) It's a shortcut for shortcuts

Answer 4

For static import select the field and press Ctrl+Shift+M

Answer 5

IntelliJ just inserts them automagically; no shortcut required. If the class name is ambiguous, it'll show me the list of possibilities to choose from. It reads my mind....

Answer 6

Ctrl+Space : Show Imports

This displays imports as you're typing a non-standard class name provided the proper references have been added to the project.

This works on partial or complete class names as you are typing them or after the fact (Just place the cursor back on the class name with squigglies).
