I am new to Android Studio and want to know about shortcuts. In Eclipse we use shift-ctrl-O for importing. In Android Studio we use alt-enter. My question about importing override methods and unimplemented methods. Is there a shortcut for these in Android Studio?

@TomaszGawel corrected answer marking depends on Answer as per the particular question when asked. Question asked in Dec and Answer in next june.. any Idea hw it can help me ? – Meretricious 29/5, 2015 at 14:3

This doesn't seem to map all the short cuts from Eclipse, the ones like Cmd+Shift+R to search all classes, Cmd+O to search for methods in a class etc. Do we need to add these manually? – Extrovert 20/6, 2015 at 17:42

@FauxPas: Which version Android studio has you working now? Bcz, this shortcut is working with my Android Studio. – Amen 21/6, 2015 at 17:41

1.2.1.1 Actually Ctrl+O etc works, I just needed to add Cmd+O manually – Extrovert 22/6, 2015 at 18:22

There is option <Eclipse for Mac> too. Had you try that? – Amen 24/6, 2015 at 6:59

Android Studio is built on IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition, the popular Java IDE by JetBrains. This allows the user to select their own keymap (supporting different IDE shortcuts in your IDE).

You can use "Mac os X, Visual studio, Eclipse, Netbeans etc.. shortcuts in your Android Studio by doing the following:

File -> Settings -> Keymap -> choose "Eclipse" from dropdown.

OR press Ctrl+Alt+S -> keymap -> choose "Eclipse" from dropdown like this.

Stint answered 24/8, 2015 at 11:31 Comment(3)

What is the default keymap in Android Studio Mac ? For me "Ctrl+R"(To Run) shortcut are not working. This and some other shortcuts are not working. I'm currently having "Eclipse (Mac OS X)" as keymap. Then I can't switch to next tab in android studio by clicking "Ctrl+right or left arrow key" it takes me to next desktop instead of next tab in Android Studio.. Help me. ? – Planimeter 28/4, 2016 at 1:40

Have you tried to use keymap as "Eclipse" instead of "Eclipse(Mac OS X)" – Stint 28/4, 2016 at 6:59

Alt+enter is a 'fast solving problems option'. If you try it over class name after writing 'implements XXXX' it will suggest you to autoimplemnt that methods.

The correct shortcut for 'Organice imports' is Ctrl+Alt+O

You can find a really good Android Studio/IntellyJ shortcuts cheatsheet here: IntellyJ shortcut cheatsheet

------Hint-----

Give a try to Live Templates in Android Studio (It's like magic). Just press Ctrl+J

If you're looking for a shortcut in Android studio and can't quite remember the command, simply click Ctrl+Shift+A to launch the command search. From here, you can search for any shortcut you want.

Merry coding!

this is best one. – Threemaster 18/8, 2019 at 5:49

These are for shortcuts specific to android studio.And since it is based on IntelliJ Idea studio,these will work too

answering your specific question,Android Studion is quite logical wrt to shortcuts,for eg for all the situations you asked,try alt-insert

Suppressive answered 26/12, 2014 at 12:24 Comment(0)

Using Eclipse key mapping inside Android Studio is the better choice. It will easily adapt to existing key structure. But all the new persons are using new shortcut key structures in Android Studio has. So we will learn and follow Android Studio itself contain shortcuts will help easily interact the team mates.

If you use Android Studio in Max OS X mean to follow the below link. It works for me. https://mcmap.net/q/152207/-android-studio-shortcuts-like-eclipse
