RubyMine: key press to "convert to single quoted"?

Question

Is there a keyboard shortcut to toggle between single quotes and double quotes in a Ruby code? Or a key I can set up to accept the Inspection Hint?

Thanks, M.

To accept any inspection hint in RubyMine, press Alt+Enter and then use the arrow keys and Enter to select the quickfix to apply.

Current as of RubyMine 2016.2, there is an easier way to convert all quotes via the keyboard:

select part of string whose quotation type you want to change
Alt + Enter to accept inspection hint
Arrow right
"Fix all 'Double quoted string' problems in file"

Suppose you have a double quoted string as "some_string" then you need to select all "some_string" including both the quotes and press quote key to get 'some_string' i.e single quoted string. To get the double quotes 'some_string' => "some_string" follow the same process and press shift+quote key. Hope your problem is solved @Martin.

@MartinCleaver both of these answers seem acceptable for your question, but I would vote for this one in conjunction with using ctrl+w until the entire string with quotes is selected because it's quicker for me. Just wondering why one hasn't been accepted? – mrfreester Nov 18 '15 at 20:26
