Jetbrains changed the toolbars in IntelliJ 13.
The Navigate Back & Forward arrows, shown here, used to be in the top toolbar and easily clickable.
Now the only way I can find to access these fields is to go to Navigate -> Back or Navigate -> Forward.
Does anyone know of a way to add these back/forward locations into an always visible toolbar like they were located in IntelliJ 12?
I am using Idea 13 and my toolbar already has these buttons:
The icon groups are:
file | undo/redo | cut/copy/paste | font size | back/forward | compile/run | vcs | config | help | jira | tasks
You should be looking at the back/forward buttons in the 5th group.
If you want to make the toolbar visible, it's one of the checkable options on the view menu.
For some reason the toolbar is not visible by default.
In the View menu, select Toolbar. That should fix it.
IntelliJ IDEA 15
Show toolbar
Method 1
View > Toolbar
Method 2
The toolbar already contains the "Back" and "Forward" buttons.
Configure toolbar
Just go to the "View" tab and check-enable "Toolbar"
*be noted that shortcut keys(ctrl+alt+ left/right) are not working
Here is just a reference image, where to find the top right bar in the settings.
(Note: This is PyCharm)
The Conan's answer helped me with the same issue. 2Conan - make your comment as an answer. It helps with TS issue. Just for sure posting his answer here ...
OK, you can do this. Turn the toolbar on, with View > Toolbar
. Right click it, and choose Customize Menus and Toolbars
. In the Navigation Bar Toolbar
folder, add the icons from Main menu > Navigate > Back / Forward
, choose OK, then go and turn off the toolbar with View > Toolbar
again.
