If I have multiple panes in the Matlab's IDE, Shift-Ctrl-M causes the one with the focus to become the only visibe pane, taking up the entire IDE window. Pressing Shift-Ctrl-M again brings back all the other panes that were present, and the pane with the focus becomes just one pane among many again.
Is there such a shortcut key in the Spyder IDE?
There is a GUI button to do this, but I wonder if there is also a shortcut key.
(Spyder maintainer here) The shortcut for that in Spyder is Ctrl+Shift+Alt+M
Note: You can browse and modify all our available shortcuts by going to the menu
Tools > Preferences > Keyboard shortcuts
I'm using 2 monitors. On the 2nd one, I have the Delphi IDE, using the Classic undocked settings.
There is a white vertical line in the middle of the IDE cutting through the source code. I can't seems to find the option in the settings to remove it.
That line is the Code Editor's "Right margin". You can turn that on/off in the Display section of the Code Editor settings, or you can set how many characters from the left edge of the editor you want the line to appear (the default is 80 chars).
See Customizing the Code Editor for more details.
Is it possible to remove or disable the Project Symbol Search button from the Dephi (10.2) editor. It is the magnifying glass on the far right in the image below.
It is a nuisance to me because I keep pressing it instead of the dropdown arrow on the Methods combo box next to it (because my hand co-ordination is poor) and it freezes the IDE for 20-30 seconds.
In Tools > Options > Editor Options > Display there is only an option to turn off the hole toolbar ("navigation toolbar").
The toolbar is not even mentioned in the docs for the options dialog!
But at least you can find information about it here and here in the docs.
In Eclipse, I can type Ctrl+M or click the maximize icon in the editor pane to make the editor pane take up the entire Eclipse window, and then again to restore the pane back to its previous size exposing the other panes.
Is it possible to perform the equivalent in IntelliJ IDEA?
To clarify, I'm asking about hiding all other tool panes to show only the editor pane. I'm not asking how to go to distraction-free mode, because this is mode is completely "full screen", hiding all toolbars, window decorations, etc.
The closest thing would be to hide all tool windows by invoking the Hide All Tool Windows action. The shortcut for that is Ctrl + Shift + F12 (Default keymap).
This will hide all tool windows, effectively maximizing the editor window (though not full screen). The IntelliJ menu bar, toolbar, breadcrumb and tab bar will still be visible.
I'm using IntelliJ 11.1.2 on Kubuntu 12.04 LTS with the Default keymap.
14.0.3 on MacOS X
It's Cmd + Shift + F12 in IntelliJ IDEA 14.0.3 on MacOS X.
UPDATE on 2015-03-24:
IntelliJ IDEA 14.1 now has support for Distraction Free Mode. You can invoke it by clicking View > Enter Distraction Free Mode. In this mode, IntelliJ hides everything but the menu. For more details, follow their video detailing the new feature: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVwE8MFgYig.
If you want to maximize a pane , select that pane (by clicking inside or on its title bar) and then use the shortcut "Ctrl+Shift+Quotes"
You can double click anywhere on the tab title bar of the editor pane.
All answers work for only hiding other tools. If you have more than one editor pane and you want to maximize only one editor pane (hide all tolls and hide all other editor panes), it is not possible right now.
PyCharm version: 2018.2.7
I use Ctrl-Shift-F12("Hide All Windows") toggle between maximum and normal modes of the editor.
Using IntelliJ 14.1.5
If you want to maximize the editor window AND full-screen the app, you can create a macro with the following two commands:
Toggle Full Screen Mode
Hide All Tool Windows
And then assign a hotkey to the macro. Here's how I did this:
File > Settings > Keymap
Use the search bar to search for the two commands above. Assign obscure hotkeys to those.
Edit > Macros > Start macro recording
Hit the two obscure hotkeys you just assigned: this should max the editor and full-screen the app
Stop recording. Name the macro
Open File > Settings > Keymap again. Find the Macros section, find your macro, assign a nice hotkey to it.
I just assigned ^M(ctrl+M) to Main menu | Window | Active Tool Window | Hide All Tool Windows under preferences(by clicking cmd,). This worked for me exactly like eclipse.
something similar can be achieved by opening your tab in a new window.
The default hotkey for that is shift+f4.
the editor tab remains in the main app window as well, and the new window appears on top of the main app window.
This has already been answered, but since when I google "android studio maximize tab" this is the first answer I see, I'm going to add my two cents.
I hate the keyboard shortcuts since, at any given time, I have 1 hand on my keyboard and 1 hand on my mouse. Having to let go of my mouse to hit a 3-key combination to maximize the current tab is not a shortcut. What I was looking for was an Eclipse-style behavior: double-click the tab to maximize. Here's how to do that:
In Android Studio, under Preferences, go to Keymap->Main Menu->Window->Active Tool Window. Right-click the "Maximize tool window" mapping and select "Add mouse shortcut."
For "Click Count" pick "Double Click" and then double-click on the "Click Pad" mouse icon.
Click OK out of the menus and you should now be able to double-click on any tab and it will be maximized. Double-clicking again will minimize it.
Coming from Eclipse to IntelliJ, this was one of the most frustrating aspects I've had to deal with.
full screen plugin is availble for IntelliJ Idea...

If you need to use the same shortcut like Eclipse Ctrl+M, to minimize/maximize the active editor window,
You can follow the below steps:
Open (File > Settings...) or click ( Ctrl+Alt+s )
Select Keymap
Search for "Hide All Tool Windows"
Change the default shortcut to Ctrl+M
Then you will be able to use the same shortcut as Eclipse.
This is quite an old question and the distraction free mode wasn't exactly what I wanted. This is because it does not hide other editor windows. With 2021.1 EAP this issue has been resolved and maximising the editor hides all other editors but the active one.
For people using IdeaVim trying to emulate the <leader> z behavior of tmux, you can use the following mapping:
map <leader>zz <Action>(MaximizeEditorInSplit)
I searched for something like ctrl+b zin tmux. For me, the similar task solved by key combination shift+f4. It opens your tab in the separated window (which can be closed as usual, alt+f4). My PyCharm version:

This is crazy! I opened two separate editor windows by double-clicking in the files navigator. Then I closed Xcode.
Now, every time I open my project Xcode is completely gone. All I get are these two separate editor windows. I tried everything to get Xcode back, but when I open this particular project there is no Xcode interface - just the two lightweight editor windows.
Did anyone else encounter this problem? Is there anything else I can do, other than creating a blank new project from scratch and copying everything over?
There's no such thing as a "lightweight editor window" in Xcode 4. What you're seeing is a window that has the toolbar, tab bar, navigator pane, and utilities pane all hidden. You can show them again from the View menu.
To bring back everything:
View->Show Toolbar
View->Show Tab Bar
View->Navigators->Show Navigator
View->Utilities->Show Utilities
The last two can also be done from buttons on the toolbar.
Depending on what you expect the window to look like, you may also need to use View->Debug Area->Show Debug Area.
Select one of these editor windows, and then go to View -> Show toolbar. There is the rest of your interface.
Try going to the menu and selecting Navigate and "Reveal in Project navigator"
With the project open, select View > Show Toolbar.
