Touch bar support

The Touch Bar is located above the keyboard on supported Apple MacBook Pro models. It provides additional controls for quick access based on the current context.

The Control Strip in the right part of the Touch Bar includes controls for system-level tasks that are usually accessed with function keys on classic keyboards. The app region to the left of the Control Strip contains controls that are specific to MPS and the current context. One more system button is located in the left part of the Touch Bar; this is usually the Escape key, but it can be something else depending on the context.

MPS provides the following contexts:

• Default context is used most of the time.

  It includes controls for running, building, and debugging the application with the ability to quickly select or create a new run/debug configuration. It also provides VCS controls for updating your project and committing changes, which can be replaced in some contexts.

  

  For more controls, you can use modifier keys: Ctrl, Alt, Shift, and ⌥+⌘.

• Debugger context is used when focus is on the Debug Tool Window .

  It includes controls to stop, pause, resume the debugger, as well as stepping and evaluating expressions.

  

  For more controls, hold down the Alt key.

• When focus is on a dialog, confirmation controls are displayed (for example, Cancel, Apply, OK, or other relevant buttons).

  

• When you start typing inside a popup with a list of actions, the actions are filtered according to what you type (for example, in the Project tool window, when you press Alt+Insert, you can filter the types of files you would like to create). When the popup is active, the touch bar contains the same list of items, and it is filtered accordingly as you type.
