I'm using ST3 with vintage mode. When selecting some lines and pressing alt+shift+f (Mac OSX) I get the find and replace dialog at the bottom of the screen.
BUT, I have to remove my hand from the keyboard, reach for the mouse and click the little "In selection" button...
...is there some way for sublime to realize that I have made a selection and have that button clicked by default?
Try setting:
"auto_find_in_selection": true,
From my understanding, this will automatically use 'in selection' if you have non-empty selection when goes into find box.
[Edit]
Note, you generally set this settings in "Preferences.sublime-settings". You can open this setting by "Ctrl+Shift+P", and select "Preferences: Settings - User".

I am looking for a way to allow a user to complete a Dialog entry using keyboard shortcuts. Is this possible?
Other questions have discussed assigning shortcuts to the options in an AppleScript dialog box, but not to the "Continue"/"Okay" etc. button.
The main difficulty is that I'm using a multi-line text entry form, so the Enter button simply creates a new line, instead of targeting the default button as it would conventionally. I'm hoping cmdenter can be assigned to the default button instead.
The line of script defining the dialog in question is:
set theResponse to display dialog "Enter tasks:" default answer "
" buttons {"Cancel", "Continue"} default button "Continue"
Running your AppleScript code from Script Editor on a US English MacBook Pro, whether or not something is typed in, fnenter presses the Continue button.
The same keyboard shortcut works on an US English Apple Magic Keyboard when connected to the MacBook Pro and I'd assume any US English Mac it was connected to would do the same. I only have the MacBook Pro to test with at the moment.
In macOS, by default, pressing the tab key in this use case will not move between the controls as the controlling setting in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts is not set to allow it to act on all controls.
You must select one of the following options, depending on the version of macOS one is running, in order to use the tab key on all controls.
If you see:
Full Keyboard Access: In windows and dialogs, press Tab to move keyboard focus between:
(•) Text boxed and lists only
( ) All Controls
Select: (•) All Controls
If you see:
[] Use keyboard navigation to move between controls
Press the Tab key to move focus forward and Shift Tab to move focus backward.
Check: [√] Use keyboard navigation to move between controls
With this done, one can then use tabtabenter to press the continue button, with the dialog box produced by the code shown in the OP.
Side Note: One can also try fncommandenter as that was necessary from within a VMware macOS Catalina virtual machine that I also tested in.
⌘-Enter (on the numeric keypad) presses Continue
If you are in a multiline text field, hit the Tab key so that focus is on some element other than the text field. Then the Enter key should route properly to the dialog's default close button.
How can you select or copy the error tooltips that appear when hovering over code in Android Studio?
For example:
Is there a key command? I'm on Mac if that's relevant.
Thanks!
On Windows: try,
Hover over the yellow popup text
Alt+LeftMouseClick
The 'yellow text' should now be on your clipboard, ready to paste.
That is it!
The older solutions don't seem to be working for me. Not sure if the behavior changed, but here is what is working for me on a Mac with Android Studio 3.4:
press control + option simultaneously
hover over the text that has an error
click on the tooltip when it pops up.
On Mac, a slightly different dance than Windows.
hold shift
click and hold towards the end of the text(probably missing last character)
keep holding mouse click and release shift
while holding mouse click, press Command + C to copy
paste wherever
Ubuntu:
When you make the popup shows up, hold Alt+Shift and carefully select any amount of the text and press Ctrl+C.
You don't need to select all of the text, because it will always copy the whole message ignoring the selection.
Tested on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS and Android Studio 3.5.2.
Once popup shows up, move your mouse pointer over it and simply select (mark) bubble's text, then do Copy with keyboard shortcut (CTRL+C on Windows or Command+C on Mac) while still having mouse pointer over the bubble.
Not sure how on Mac, but on Windows it works that way for me, with the exception that you need to keep mouse pointer over the bubble all the time otherwise it is gone (which sometimes forces me to copy all but last character from that message).
On Ubuntu, try
Hover on the error or warning popup text
Maintain CTRL to keep it displayed
Use the cursor to select the text
I had a colleague with a different keyboard layout work on my mac for 5 minutes and he pressed a lot of different (wrong) hotkeys.
Now the "x" in the file tabs are hidden and I can't use them to close files anymore.
How do I unhide the "x" ?
Enable Editor | General | Editor Tabs, Show "close" button on editor tabs:
Or use Help | Find Action (Cmd+Shift+A on Mac, Ctrl+Shift+A on Windows), start typing the option name, then press Enter to toggle:
Or use Search Everywhere (Shift+Shift with Show IDE Settings option enabled under the gear icon, Enter toggles as well, the lower entry opens Preferences at the corresponding page):
Recently I came across a feature of gvim. When I press shift and click on a word the words get highlighted similar to Notepad++ (I am aware of * or #).
But if I put in my .vimrc
set mousemodel=popup
This behavior strangely stops. Anybody encountered this?
using
VIM - Vi IMproved 7.4 (2013 Aug 10, compiled Aug 29 2013 13:30:15)
This is actually by design according to :h mousemodel:
*'mousemodel'* *'mousem'*
'mousemodel' 'mousem' string (default "extend", "popup" for MS-DOS and Win32)
global
{not in Vi}
Sets the model to use for the mouse. The name mostly specifies what
the right mouse button is used for:
extend Right mouse button extends a selection. This works
like in an xterm.
popup Right mouse button pops up a menu. The shifted left
mouse button extends a selection. This works like
with Microsoft Windows.
(...)
Overview of what button does what for each model:
mouse extend popup(_setpos) ~
left click place cursor place cursor
left drag start selection start selection
shift-left search word extend selection
right click extend selection popup menu (place cursor)
right drag extend selection -
middle click paste paste
Basically, popup simulates mouse behavior in a typical Windows application, and Windows applications don't highlight words by shift-clicking.
On a normal Windows application, highlighting a single word is done by double-clicking. I am not entirely sure if the popup model is responsible for that action as well, or if it happens elsewhere, but it should be easy enough for you to test.
I am using vim, which I believe has a click function (you click, it changes the mode from edit, command, etc), however in Cygwin, you can't do that. Then again, I'm not sure if it's clicking is the thing in vim, let alone Cygwin.
I am using mintty, on Cygwin.
Clicking doesn't really change modes but, supposing your terminal emulator supports mouse reporting, you can activate mouse support in Vim with this command:
:set mouse=a
To activate mouse support permanently, add this line to your ~/.vimrc:
set mouse=a
See :help 'mouse'.
To get mouse positioning working with mintty (It's the default terminal emulator used when you start Cygwin now) on Cygwin you may need to alter the settings so that you get the expected behavior - Right click on the top left of the window to bring up the Options... menu then go to the Mouse settings. If you want it position the mouse with a left mouse click you need to select under 'Application' under the 'Default click target' which is in the 'Application mouse mode' box. If you have 'Window' selected then you'll need to hold down the selected Modifier key (as set immediately below this setting) - Usually the Shift key - and left click to position the mouse.
This worked for me:
Alt + Space -> Options -> Mouse -> Clicks place command line cursor
Options section:
