How can I select next occurrence in IDEA editors

Question

Ctrl+D performs the find_under_expand command in sublime. This basically searched for the next occurrence of the already selected text and sel

Answer 1

Currently its mapped with

for selection, Alt + J

for unselection, Alt + Shift + J

but if you're familiar with sublime shortcuts like Ctrl + D

Jetbrains give you an option to change settings,

Settings -> Keymap -> Editor Actions

search for multiple selection, find Alt + J then right click -> select change keyboard shortcuts

set shortcuts you want as like sublime, Ctrl + D

Here is the Docs

Answer 2

I believe they recently added this to the latest IntelliJ release, and I would assume PhpStorm as well. As the bindings are system specific, take a look at http://blog.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/2014/03/working-with-multiple-selection-in-phpstorm-8-eap/. Looks like that version is available through EAP, so don't know when they will release it for general consumption (or if they have already).

DEFAULT SHORTCUTS

Alt+J on Windows and Linux, Ctrl+G on Mac OS X

Answer 3

On Mac OS X, you can select the next occurrence with Ctrl+G

Answer 4

In the settings window, search for ”Add Selection for Next Occurence” (PhpStorm 8.0.1)

On mac the default is ctrl+G, but you can change it to ctrl+D (or cmd+D on mac)

Answer 5

On Windows

Alt+j - Multiple Select

Alt+Shift+j - Unselect Multiple Select

Answer 6

PhpStorm has a "Select Word at Caret", Ctl+W and Ctl+Shift+W respectively (you can check your keys by searching under Preferences > Keymap).

Not entirely sure if it's the same as you mentioned, but it's mighty handy!
