AceJump

AceJump is a plugin for the IntelliJ Platform that lets you jump to any symbol in the editor with just a few keystrokes.

Hitting the keyboard shortcut for AceJump (Ctrl+; by default) will activate a tooltip overlay. Type any visible string in the editor, followed by one of illustrated tags, to jump that location. If you press Ctrl+; a second time before completing the jump, AceJump will select the whole word instead. If you press Shift when completing the jump, AceJump will select all text from the current cursor position to the destination. It's that simple.

Installing

AceJump can be installed by the unzipping the contents of AceJump.zip into:

• $HOME/.IdeaIC<Major Version>/config/plugins/ if you are using IntelliJ IDEA Community, or
• $HOME/.IntellijIdea<Major Version>/config/plugins/ if you are using IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate

You can also install AceJump directly from the IDE, via File | Settings | Plugins | Browse Repositories... | 🔍 "AceJump".

Configuring

You can change the default keyboard shortcut, by visiting File | Settings | Keymap | 🔍 "AceJump" | AceJump | Enter⏎.

If you are using IdeaVim, you may wish to remap a single key to activate AceJump. For example, adding the following line to ˜/.ideavimrc will activate AceJump whenever the F key is pressed:

map f :action AceJumpAction<CR>

Building

In order to build AceJump from the source, clone this repository and run ./gradlew buildPlugin.
