leave a comment »

Here are some RubyMine shortcuts I use everyday

1. cmd + E
cmd + E brings up the ‘Recent Files’ dialog, but I find it most useful when switching two files back and forth.

2. cmd + [ or cmd + ]
similar to ‘back’ and ‘forward’ buttons, every useful

3. cmd + shift + N
find files

4. cmd+ shift + F
global search

5. cmd + 1 .. 9
bring up different panels

6. ctrl + W
once for single word selection, press multiple times to increase the selection range

7. fn + Up/Down
scroll up/down one page, the other useful shortcut is ctrl + Up/Down which scroll up/down one method

8. cmd + B
look up a method, very useful

9. cmd + option + L
format code – you have to love this feature, it is awesome.

10 ctrl + N
Use it in project panel to create new files

Here are some shortcuts I should really start to use

1. opt + shift + C
bring up all recent changes

2. cmd + shift + A
Go to Action. if you can’t remember shortcuts, this is the way to look it up

Bonus:

There is an excellent productivity guide in RubyMine helper. It even records how many times you use each feature. so check it out.
