In Eclipse I could hit Ctrl+O and get a popup which I could use to get an overview of everything in the current class, pick an entry, and jump to it.

In idea, there is Alt+7, but I have a few issues with it. First, the keyboard doesn't seem to put its focus there. I have to take my hand off the keyboard and use the mouse to place the focus on the Structure dock. I also don't like how it's taking up real estate. I don't want to change how things are laid out if I want to see the structure. I would like a more non-invasive popup, and handier and snappier.

Is there another feature that gives me quick access in the form of a popup preferably, like Ctrl+O provides in Eclipse?

Another nice feature would be to be able to use the J and K keys to move up and down the selection, instead of having to use the cursor keys. I'm using IdeaVim, so the normal workflow when editing files, is that both hands stay in a touch-type position. It would be nice if I can use the various navigation features also using vim keys... Perhaps there is a way to enable this, that I haven't discovered yet?

IntelliJ equivalent of Eclipse's CTRL+O is CTRL+F12 (⌘+F12 on Mac), which will give you more or less the same pop-up as in Eclipse. But I'm not sure if it can be navigated using j and k keys.

More details can be found in the IntelliJ help.

  • Turns out my Window Manager on Xubuntu was taking possession of a bunch of shortcut keys, with Ctrl+F12 being mapped to jump to a workspace (that I don't have, so it did nothing, which made me think that Ctrl-F12 was replaced with Alt+7). Unmapping that, made Ctrl+F12 work. – Mike Apr 17 '15 at 00:14
