|---|---|---|

IntelliJ Idea multiline selection keyboard shortcuts
These are keyboard shortcuts for IntelliJ Idea so useful for me, once you are used to it. This are for the multiline selection to edit multiple lines at once, like you can do in "modern" editors like Atom editor or Sublime Text
| Set new cursor manually | Alt + Shift + Mouse Click |
| Select the next occurrence | Alt + J |
| Unselect the last occurrence selected | Shift + Alt + J |
| Select all occurrences | Shift + Ctrl + Alt + J |
| Remove all selections | Esc |
Combining the next occurrence and the manual cursor set you can jump the occurrences don't want to select.
IntelliJ Idea universal command and options search
Ctrl + Shift + a will be your master key to open all the doors.
It will find any command available or any option in the IDE. It's useful when you have the same keyboard shortcut defined in the system, like Ctrl + Alt + F1-7 in Linux Os, and you don't reconfigured to avoid the collision.
