I tried to search the documentation and the forums before posting this.

Is it possible to move between the opening and closing braces or parenthesis marks with a shortcut key instead of using the arrow keys?

For instance, when I have 

('here is an example')
with the cursor at the closing brace and want to jump to the opening braces quickly.

Or moving quickly jumping to the opening brace or closing brace 
{ }


function someFunction() {

 


// several lines of code...


}


Thanks!

File | Settings | IDE settings | Keymap | Move caret to matching brace.
It's off by default.

Hello!

Ctrl+]/Ctrl+[ usually works. see what shortcuts the 'Move caret to code block start' /  'Move caret to code block end' actions are mapped to in your keymap (Settings/Keymap)

That worked. My keymap was a little different, but thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Thanks,
Rick
