How to go to last edit location/s in android studio?

Clicking the back arrow in the toolbar makes you travel within your navigation history.

But I want to travel within my edition history i.e. navigate through the last change/s I made in code.

Eclipse have a back arrow with star on it for this.

Are you looking to undo the changes as you navigate through the edits? On Windows, ctrl-z is the usual keyboard short cut for that. – Shechem 28/6, 2016 at 12:38

I think there is only the undo function in Android Studio, but it is not for navigating. – Piassava 28/6, 2016 at 12:39

Go to File -> Settings... -> Keymap.

In the search box type "last edit location".

Your default shortcut for Last Edit Location should show up (mine is Ctrl + Q on the screenshot below).

You can also change it by double (or right) clicking on it.

thanks but isn't there any simple and QUICK solution i.e. at least a short cut – Roana 28/6, 2016 at 12:44

You can set whatever shortcut you would like here. As you can see on the screenshot, mine is Ctrl + Q. You can just right click on it to change the shortcut. – Everetteeverglade 28/6, 2016 at 12:45

Its default values i Ctrl+Shift+Backspace – Outbuilding 17/2, 2020 at 14:9

Made my day! Thanks. Not only was I able to find this keymap shortcut, but now I know a quick way to find other shortcuts and be 100% certain too. If I would have downloaded the list of keymaps, they would not have been specific to my setup and may not have worked. Much appreciated. Thanks again. – Undeniable 6/7, 2022 at 13:55

Go to VCS in menu then Local History then Show History. You will find all your Changes made in Project from beginning or After project Importing. I think you are Searching for this.
