Connect to Docker automatically at restart

Connect to the configured Docker daemon after DataGrip starts.

Image registry entities loading limit

For performance reasons, by default, DataGrip shows only the first 100 images in a Docker registry. Increase this number if you need to list more. This will also increase the memory usage.

The log tab should be the first tab for the docker container

Show the Log tab as the first tab in the container overview pane.

How often should DataGrip check the status of connection to Docker in milliseconds.

Don't copy/cut the current line when invoking the Copy or Cut action with no selection

This option lets you override the default behavior of copying Ctrl+C or cutting Ctrl+X the whole current line when nothing is selected in the editor.

Don't select the copied line after invoking the Copy action with no selection

By default, when you use Ctrl+C without selecting anything, the whole line gets copied. With this action, you can avoid that selection.

When pasting a line copied with no selection

You can change the default Paste above the caret line behavior, and select either Paste at the caret line that restores the old Copy / Paste behavior or Trim if pasted middle line that will remove the unnecessary spaces before and after the copied line if it is pasted in the middle of the line.

Tab character rendering

You can select one of the following options:

Left margin in distraction free mode

This option lets you adjust the left editor margin in the distraction-free and zen viewing modes.

By default, the editor text in these viewing modes is centered vertically and the text column width corresponds to the Hard wrap at option on the Editor | Code Style page of settings  Ctrl+Alt+S. This means that if your code will be centered when formatted properly, but if there are long unwrapped lines, the text might go beyond the viewport while there is a large margin on the left. In such cases, you may want to decrease the left margin using this option.

Line number's font delta

Use this option to change the font size of the line numbers in the left gutter comparing to the font size in the editor.

Force soft wrap in documents with lines longer than n characters

The default number is 100000. Increasing this number might negatively affect the editor performance.
