In the Keyboard Shortcut dialog, press the necessary key combination. On the Keymap page of the Settings dialog Ctrl+Alt+S, right-click an action and select Add Keyboard Shortcut. To view the keymap reference as PDF, select Help | Keyboard Shortcuts PDF from the main menu. When consulting this page and other pages in IntelliJ IDEA documentation, you can see keyboard shortcuts for the keymap that you use in the IDE - choose it using the selector at the top of a page. If you know the shortcut of an action, click and press the key combination in the Find Shortcut dialog. To find an action by name, type it in the search field of the Keymap page. When you change a shortcut of a child action, it does not affect the shortcuts of its parent action, but the inheritance link is removed making both actions independent. When you change a shortcut of a parent action, all shortcuts of its child actions change accordingly. On the Keymap page, you can navigate to the parent action using the inherited from link. Some actions inherit their keyboard shortcuts or mouse shortcuts from other actions. For information about keymap files, see Location of user-defined keymaps. Click to duplicate the selected keymap, rename, remove, or restore it to default values.

Instead, when you modify any shortcut of a predefined keymap, IntelliJ IDEA creates a copy of that keymap, which you can configure. Another keymap specific to macOS is macOS System Shortcuts that follows the Default Mac OS X System Key Bindings conventions.Ī keymap is a list of actions with corresponding keyboard and mouse shortcuts and abbreviations. There is also IntelliJ IDEA Classic, which is a legacy keymap that resembles the default keymap for Windows. Make sure that it matches the OS you are using or select the one that matches shortcuts from another IDE or editor you are used to (for example, Eclipse or NetBeans).

IntelliJ IDEA automatically suggests a predefined keymap based on your environment. To view the keymap configuration, open the Settings dialog Ctrl+Alt+S and select Keymap. IntelliJ IDEA includes several predefined keymaps and lets you customize frequently used shortcuts.
