Where is the "how do I do 'x' in IDEA?" Forum ? (is this it ?)
If it is:
I'm looking for a 'quick' way of extending a class and implementing constructors for my new subclass that match the base class.
For example, if I subclass Exception, I want to include all four constructor signatures, with calls to super().
Please sign in to leave a comment.
Sigh.. replying to one half of my own question.
Right-click and 'generate' then select constructor. I knew there must be a way.
The other question still stands.
Is this the right forum for these types of questions?
Yep, ask away. Or just figure it out yourself. ;)

Or, for the keyboardly oriented, press Alt-Insert and then Enter to
select Constructor.
There isn't an easy way to create a subclass of a non-abstract class
currently. There is a refactoring to Extract Subclass planned for IDEA
4.1 though.
However, if your baseclass is abstract, you can place the caret on the
class definition line and press Alt-Enter and choose the Implement
Abstract Class intention.
