Also, is there a way to make backspace stop devouring the entire line? I just want it to act the way shift-tab does. I typed Shift+Tab into the search in settings, but it doesn't show up.
It would also be nice if Delete caused a line to jump to the next indent, rather than a single character back.
A third issue I just found: Some of my variables don't highlight in other places in the text, when I double-click them. Can I fix this? Needing to type control+f every time is an annoyance. :) Example, in this:
setAttribute('id', "qarowcontainer" + id);
This does not highlighted in other places:
qarowcontainer
(By the way, it's very interesting the way that copy and paste worked out.. lol) Good day.

Delete works with characters. So -- use tabs instead of spaces. Currently there is no option available to treat xx spaces as tab/indent.

Install BrowseWordAtCaret plugin and check "Settings | Editor | General | Appearance" for "Browse Word At Caret" settings after restarting IDE. Colors can also be changed (you already know where -- just look for "BrowseWordAtCaret")
Example, in this:
Bad example: I see one string occurence and one that look like variable. For your info: string (text) is not the same as variable.
I typed Shift+Tab into the search in settings, but it doesn't show up.
You cannot search for actions using text values of keyboard shortcuts.
"Settings | Keymap" -- it has special button (next to search field) that allows you to search by keyboard shortcuts -- by actually pressing those keys.
I want to change the color of the current line highlighted but not finding the Colors & Fonts | General | Caret Row in Settings | Editor. I am using the Intellij Ultimate 2018.1 version.
Hi there,
Settings | Editor | Colors & Fonts | General | Caret Row
Make sure you create your own color scheme first (by using "Save As.." button) as you cannot edit bundled ones.
Thanks!

Thanks again, Andriy.
