Tool windows
Show/hide:
Tool windows provide functionality that supplements editing code. For example, the Database Explorer shows you the structure of your database, and the Services tool window displays the output of your SQL code when you run it.
By default, tool windows are docked to the sides and bottom of the main window. You can arrange them as necessary, undock, resize, hide, and so on. Right-click the title of the tool window or click 
in the title for its arrangement options.
You can assign shortcuts to quickly access the tool windows that you frequently use. Some of them have shortcuts by default. For example, to open the Database Explorer, press Alt+1, and to open the Services tool window, press Alt+8. To jump from the editor to the last active tool window, press F12.
Context menus
You can right-click various elements of the interface to see the actions available in the current context. For example, right-click a database object in the Database Explorer for actions related to that database object, or right-click in the editor to see actions that apply to the current code fragment.
Most of these actions can also be performed from the main menu at the top of the screen or the main window. Actions with shortcuts show the shortcut next to the action name.
Popup menus
Popup menus provide quick access for actions related to the current context. Here are some useful popup menus and their shortcuts:
Alt+Insert opens the Generate popup for generating boilerplate code based on the context.
Control+Alt+Shift+T opens the Refactor This popup with a list of contextually available refactorings.
Alt+` opens the VCS Operations popup with contextually available actions for your version control system.
You can create custom popup menus using quick lists of actions that you often use.
Main window
By default, the window header displays the name of the currently open file.
To show the full path to the current file, select Always show full paths in window header on the Appearance & Behavior | Appearance page of the IDE settings Control+Alt+S.
