Menus and toolbars

Last modified: 13 November 2024

As you work with the IDE, you perform some actions more often than the others. To maximize your productivity, learn the default shortcuts for your favorite actions or assign shortcuts for them. You can also customize the menus and toolbars to only contain the actions that you need, regroup them, and configure their icons.

For example, if you work with a Java project, you might want to remove other framework files that you do not use from the File | New menu to keep that part of the menu shorter and leave only the needed options.
