Android Studio logcat search bar - android-studio

We are a group of developers, we ALL have the latest studio but some of us has a logcat search bar that can be triggered by Command + F like this:
And some of use cannot trigger that search bar... any idea what is the difference??

It might be because the Keymap (Settings -> Keymap) of Android Studio has been changed to Eclipse (Or something else) from Default. Then Apply the changes. PFB the image FYR.
Change it back to Default and try hitting Ctrl+F to get the search bar be visible again.
Hope this helps.
Note: Later you can change it back to your favorite keymap.

Can't see action tool bar on Android Studio

Everything was fine yesterday. But I opened a new Android Studio project and can't see the top action bar (With various button shortcuts). And I can't find an option to reenable it.
Need help ;_;
Go to View -> Appearance and check those specific toolbars are activated or not

Quick Docs won't display automatically in Android Studio

As other posts have mentioned, I've already checked the following:
File->Settings->Editor->General->"Show quick documentation on mouse move Delay(ms): 500"
And I've also already downloaded the SDK
Android SDK->SDK Tools tab->"Documentation for Android SDK"
And I've also tried restarting Android Studio but that didn't help either.
This is what I see when I hover over the selection that I want the quick docs to show up for:
The only way I can get the quick docs to show up, if I press ctrl q.
I'm using Android Studio 3.5.3.
How can I get the quick docs to show up automatically without having to press ctrl q every single time?
Here's a screenshot of what Quick Docs looks like
What Quick Docs looks like
I had the same problem as you, do this:
1- Go to File-> Settings-> Editor-> General-> Code Completion
2- Check the "Show documentation popup in X ms"
That should do it. I used 500ms, seems to work fine.

What is the bar that shows which method my cursor is in called and where did it go when I upgraded to Android Studio 3.1.0

There used to be this helpful bar at the top of my Android Studio Editor, below the file tabs, which showed which method the cursor was in. I'm finding that I'm desperately missing it since upgrading to Android Studio 3.1.0 from Android Studio 3.0.1. I couldn't figure out what it was called.
It isn't a navigation bar, because that shows only the file path.
After reloading the old version of Android Studio, I discovered that this bar is called Breadcrumbs.
The new version changes its appearance slightly and adds new options for whether to place it at the top or bottom of the editor window. It seems to default to being placed at the bottom of the editor window.
To quickly set Breadcrumbs options ctrl+shift+a (or macintosh equivalent) to bring up Find Action and search for breadcrumbs
Hit enter on the non-options result and select top or whatever you want
Enjoy having your breadcrumbs back on top.

Terminal Missing in Android Studio

I opened Android Studio to find that the Terminal Tab is no longer present along the bottom left. Restoring to the default layout did not return it. I also can't seem to find any reference to it in the View or Window Tabs.
How do I get the to the Terminal tab in Android Studio?
Update:
Terminal is not present under View -> Tool Windows, but the Terminal Plugin is installed and enabled.
File > Settings > Plugins' - Search for "terminal"
Untick the check box -> Press Apply
Tick it again -> Press Apply -> Press OK
Restart Studio
Try the shortcut alt+F12. Or check the information under the heading
Running embedded local terminal
On the following link:jetbrains help
Toggling Tools-> Android-> Enable ADB Integration Off/On then restarting the IDE returned my Terminal Tab.

Strange key mapping in Android Studio

I am new to Android studio, it seems to be great IDE. But I have found that it has really strange key and shortcut mapping. I am using Czech keyboard.
When I try to type ">" by pressing Right ALT + . the symbol is not appearing, and I got message box that says "Go to custom Region. There are no custom foldings regions in the current file."
It is really strange behaviour, I have problem with writing many more characters like brackets,..... I tried to set keymap profiles to Visual Studio and more. But nothing seems to work. I didn't have any of these problems in any other IDE (Netbeans, Eclipse, Visual Studio, Xamarin)
Add this line:
actionSystem.force.alt.gr=true
to this file:
...\Android\android-studio\bin\idea.properties
As written here:
http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-91975
Yes, well... its problem with "old" keyboards. Newer keyboards don't have Alt Gr keys and IDE doesn't count on this in default.
Solutions:
Buy a new keyboard with no Alt Gr on it (using right Alt instead of Alt Gr is working for me)
Go to File -> Settings -> Keymap and search for implementation - delete Ctrl + Alt + B, hit "Apply" and you can now use this shortcut for "{"
As already mentioned below... add following line to ..\<Android Studio folder>\bin\idea.properties:
actionSystem.force.alt.gr=true
(update) Since newer version of AS (not sure which one, should be 2.3.3+), you don't need to manually access the properties file. Go to Help -> Edit Custom Properties and add actionSystem.force.alt.gr=true there.
Go to Preferences -> Keymap and choose Mac OS X as Keymaps.
I have been a long time Visual Studio user, so wanted to leverage all the keyboard shortcuts that I had picked up using Visual Studio.
On Android Studio, I first changed the Keymap to be Visual Studio. You can do this by using Alt+F7 on Windows and then search for Keymap.
By using the Visual Studio Keymap in Android studio, I got only debug related mapping, which was still a minority of what I use in Visual Studio.
So went ahead and added/modified some more mappings.
Here is the github link
https://github.com/vinayakg/VisualStudioKeymapforAndroidStudio/blob/master/settings.jar.
PR's welcome.
As for '>' sign (AltGr + .) and Android Studio 1.0.1, go to File>Settings, choose Keymap in IDE Settings section, search for "GotoCustomRegion" item (it is located in MainMenu-Navigate) and remove its mapping (via context menu).
If you're using macOS newest versions and have had weird behavior with the shortcuts, try this:
Go to Android Studio -> Preferences -> Keymap
Now change from "Mac OS X" to "Mac OS X 10.5+" and hit apply.
