I believe there is a shortcut in Spyder to open the current object (i.e. the object where the flashing text cursor is) in the Object Inspector.
What is it?
Do you mean "inspect current object"? The default in the console is Ctrl+I.
Menu -> Tools -> Preferences -> Keyboard shortcuts and then find the name in the table in the right part of the window.

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 have a live binding here from an Edit control to a SpinBox control.
Selecting it and pressing the Delete key on the keyboard has no effect. Neither do Ctrl+X, or the Edit -> Cut or Edit -> Delete menu items.
How do I remove it?
Right click on the link and click "Remove link". Maybe some day, deleting a link will work in a more intuitive manner.
I'm looking for a way to be able to preview code related to what's under my cursor in a separate window when I click the mouse/touchpad. Eg. definition for methods / member variables etc.
Something like the results of Ctrl+Click but instead of opening the file in my main editor window, I'd like to see the results in a small window below the main editor window (a 'code preview' window).
Ideally, the 'code preview' window doesn't hide any code surrounding the preview of the item under the cursor.
This happens for eg. in Source Insight & VSlick. It gives the ability to browse another section of the code in a small window while the main source is open in the main window.
I find it very useful.
Is there any way / plugin etc to do this in ADT/Eclipse ?
I'm new to Eclipse and using the ADT flavor (Eclipse Platform 4.2.1.v20130118) for Android Java dev.
Thanks!
Press Shift and hover the mouse cursor over the method or variable - it will show a small popup with the source preview.
You must be sure it is enabled in Preferences (Preferences->Java->Editor->Hovers, "Source" line should be checked).
Checked with Eclipse 4.4.
I am looking for a way to open the method popup that shows up when you click the navigation-bar in XCode.
is there a way to do this by using a shortcut?
The shortcut is ^6 (a.k.a. Control+6). To change the shortcut go to Xcode-->Preferences...->Key Bindings, and look for the View Menu list. It is called "Standard editor -> Show Document items"
control+6. Pres control and 6 together. :)
I need to set the menu help text of my shell context menu popup menu item just like winzip shellContext menu. I tried IContextMenu_GetCommandString but it is only setting menu help for sub menus of my main popup menu. Please help me and let me know how to set the menu help for my main poup menu?
Thanks
In case you haven't solved this already, here is what worked for me.
You need to insert your popup menu into the explorer menu using InsertMenuItem, as described here. This allows you to give your popup menu an ID.
The shell passes that ID into IContextMenu_GetCommandString when querying the items, by way of checking for that ID you can return any help string you need.
However, it may simply not be displayed if you right-click on a folder in the (left) folders pane of explorer, and not in the files pane to the right. On my system, if one or more elements are selected in the files pane, the properties (type, size, name and some more stuff) are displayed in the status bar, even if I right-click on any folder in the folders pane.
This seems to be standard behaviour - at least on my system it's the same for all installed custom extensions and even for the default explorer menus.
