Is there a way to shorten my number of clicks to get to my source code? I know that search can do this but is there a way to create short cut?

From where? F3 is nice in source, Ctrl-alt-t is nice most places. – Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen Nov 13 '13 at 04:56

Your code is full of shortcuts. Use `ctrl + left click` on a class or a method. If you want to quickly find a class, use `ctrl+shift+t`. If you need a resource (jsp, css, js, xml), use `ctrl+shift+r` – toniedzwiedz Nov 13 '13 at 18:06

When you are in the 'Java' Perspective, press Ctrl + Shift + T, then type the name of a Java class. Eclipse will find it and open it. You can also specify wildcards e.g. *
and ?
You can also type Ctrl + H to search content contained within a variety of workspaces resources.

Ctrl+Shift+R has the added benefit of searching all resources, not just Java classes, so it will also show XML, property files, your POMs (if you're using Maven), etc. Though keep in mind that you'll have to use Ctrl+Shift+T to search for classes outside of your projects. – Brian Nov 13 '13 at 03:52
