When I have text selected in a VS 2017 text edit window and then hit ctrl+t to do ReSharper's 2017 Ultimate's "go to everything", the selected text is not automatically placed into the "go to everything" search field.
As automatically pasting selected text into search dialogs is pretty standard functionality, I'm hoping there is a way to configure ReSharper to do this but have not been able to find one.
Does anyone know? Thanks in advance!
Try ticking the checkbox Remember last search on ReSharper | Options | Environment | Search & Navigation page. According to the WebHelp page https://www.jetbrains.com/help/resharper/Reference__Options__Environment__Search_and_Navigation.html, that should help
ReSharper can remember the last input that you used to find something
with Search Everywhere/Go to Type, Go To File, and Go to Text actions.
When this option is selected, ReSharper will also use your current
selection in the editor as the initial search query. For example, you
can select a file name in a string and then press Ctrl+Shift+T to
search for files in your solution that match this name.
I just switched from geany to eclipse and I have a little problem
How can I change that highlight color which is VERY annoying
As you can see, whenever I highlight anything and click somewhere else, it changes like this. How can fix this little bug?
Open Window>Preferences>General>Editors>Text Editors>Annotations
Modify the color for "PHP elements 'read' occurrences" and "PHP elements 'write' occurrences". Obviously I'm using eclipse PHP but you should see similar options in the annotations list for non-PHP eclipse.
Here's what worked for me:
Open Windows -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Text Editors ->
Annotations
Select "Occurrences (PyDev)." The "Text as" drop down box on the right should read "Highlighted," and the color is very light.
Click the color button and change it to something easier on the eyes.
I found the best thing to do is to go into GWindows -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Annotations and change everything from Highlighted to Underlined and choose the underline color to suit.
If you are using Python in eclipse (using PyDev) than the above solution won't help.
Than you have to go to
"Open Windows>Preferences>General>Editors>Text Editors> Annotations"
and change the color of Breakpoints(PyDev).
Once you do that the color of all which are matching your current selection will be in the color you chose and not the annoying yellowish highlight color.
General->Editors->Text Editors->Annotations preference
section. Look for C/C++ Occurrences and C/C++ Write Occurrences.
I had to spend an inordinate amount of time searching for an answer to this question. Here is a picture of the Preferences showing which selection is for changing the background color of text you have selected with your mouse in the editor. This is totally different from the Occurrences that people keep pointing out.
If you're using PyDev, use the following:
Open Window>Preferences>General>Editors>Text Editors>Annotations
in the list of Annotation types there is the "Occurrences (PyDev)" Option, which is the one you'll want to change.
I found a blue highlight for dark mode works well in PyDev.
For me, this is what did it (seems it's different for everyone):
Open Windows -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Annotations
Under "Annotation Types":
select "Boot Dynamic Info", then uncheck the "Text as" checkbox on the right.
Using the answers above to set the colours, here are some that I found worked in RGB:
(65, 66, 36)
(83, 55, 55)
In my case, Spring Tool Suite 4.14.0 (202203), changing "LSP Read Occurrence" color under Windows -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Annotations solved my problem.

I had the same issue with highlighted inactive code.
I was able to change it in Window>Preferences>C/C++(or other programming language)>Editor under "Appearance color options:" select "Inactive code highlight" and change to the desired color.
Similar post about inactive code in Eclipse.
Also check "Vwrapper Search" color setting if you are using that plugin
Under Open Window > Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors > Annotations
For some reason it overrides other defaults. Tested with the Darkest Dark theme on Eclipse 2022-09.
Annotations is the setting you want to Change (whatever Eclipse you are using - example below is CDT):

I am trying to change my WebStorm settings for a project such that JavaScript spacing is two spaces as opposed to four. I have changed the project settings from both Webstorm > Preferences > Editor > Code Style > JavaScript and Default Settings > Editor > Code Style > JavaScript, yet have seen no carryover into the actual project, which continues to use four spaces. The preview pane on this view appears exactly as I want.
In both aforementioned paths, I hit Apply once I made changes; I've also gone into the Scheme dropdown and selected my desired settings.
I have also restarted my WebStorm, verified my settings were changed, but still am not seeing any effect take place in the project.
The culprit here for me was a .editorconfig file where someone had previously specified indent_size. This file will override the default WebStorm settings. As it's a hidden file, easy to miss so be on the lookout! :-)
Does ColdFusion Builder have split screen editing like Homesite+, and how do I turn it on? How do I activate word wrap?
Thanks much!
In order to see 2 files tiled at the same time within ColdFusion Builder 2, follow the steps below:
Open the file
Right click the tab with the file name
Choose Move Editor
You will see the file outlined in black in the interface, it is now attached to your cursor
Click to the right of the Source tab in the open area
This will allow you to view both files at the same time, one above the other
The file you select will be the active file
You can still use the Source and browser tabs, they will reflect whatever file is the active one
Word Wrap:
Go to Window > Preferences > HTML > Editors. Click the Advanced tab and check Enable word wrap. Restart CF Builder.
If you want to compare 2 files, there is an easier way.
Select both files
Right-click one of them
Select 'Compare With --> Each Other
Eclipse will then show you the 2 files side by side, and highlight any differences.
ColdFusion Builder 2016 (AKA 3.1) offers "split view" for both horizontal (CTRL+_) & vertical (CTRL+{), but the hotkeys don't appear to work at the moment. This can be accessed via the "Window | Editor" menu. You can also search the "Quick Access" search box and type "Split" and then choose the toggle options that appear.
In ColdFusion Builder 2016 the keyboard shortcut is: (CTRL+SHIFT+_) AND (CTRL+SHIFT+{)
With a number of different apps that all have their own version of "admin.py" and "views.py," etc., I have a hard time telling which one I have open when looking at the tabs (the tabs don't have the full path).
Is there a way to highlight which file I'm editing in the active tab? Normally with programs that use this format -- for instance Gmail -- the active section or file is highlighted on the left, but not so in PyCharm.
Use View | Select In | Project View or enable Autoscroll from Source option in the Project View.
In PyCharm 2.0 there will be Show directory in editor tabs for non-unique filenames option in Settings | Editor | Editor Tabs.
The project pane should have a row of buttons on the top. Mouse over them for tooltips, and look for the one that says "Autoscroll from source". Make sure to make the sidebar wide enough to see all the buttons.
