Missing features from Netbeans
Answered
Hello,
I'm trying to switch from NB to Idea and cannot find the following features or settings, which are really useful
== FEATURES ==
- click on diff in gutter grid. you can't select parts of text with the mouse to copy selected part. You can only copy the hole old content
- show all errors in project (Action items in Netbeans)
== COLORS ==
- can't configure different colors for protected, public, package private variables. They should have different color as private ones
- make error coloring more prominent. e.g. highlight the hole line which has an error, allow changing color of error mark in gutter grid
Kind regards,
Neb

Some of problems already resolved. Maybe it worth to update FAQ
Navigating to prev/next highlighted occurrences (alt+up/alt+down in Netbeans) can be achieved with BrowseWordAtCaret plugin. But you have to adjust keymap
"Select word" shortcut is called "Extend selection"
"Complete word" is called "Cyclic Expand Word"

You can use https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WRH59PQ5Dk instead.

The colors are customizable:

This feature was implemented recently, see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-174641 for details. It's available in https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/nextversion/ and will be released with 2017.3 update this Fall.

>"The colors are customizable:"
Yes, I can change the error colors but it is not possible to make the hole line red, is it? Not big deal, though
