Hi there,

I see error reported in the bottom right corner -- see what causing it. It could be some incompatible/outdated plugin etc.

In general:

  • Try with all custom (not bundled by default) plugins disabled
  • Check idea.log (Help | Show Log in XXX) for possible exceptions

@lodi

Please provide a screenshot (whole IDE window). What custom plugins do you have installed?

Here are few tickets with similar description -- there issue is caused by Material UI Theme plugin:

Varun Kumar, please try Window | Restore Default Layout. If that doesn't help, please check how it goes in 2019.3.

If still no good, please submit a support ticket attaching the logs bundle (Help | Compress Logs).

There is a chance that you have the Material Theme UI plugin installed that causes this issue.
Please rename this directory: ~/Library/Application Support/.PhpStorm2019.3
Then start 2019.3 and check how it goes.

i do confirm Eugene Morozov's solution work, resizing the window solved the problem, it seems material theme is causing this.

Bogdan Oloeriu, do you also have the Material UI plugin installed? If this is the case, would it be possible to temporarily disable it and check how it goes?

Same problem fedora 29 after upgrade. Blank screen. Resize doesn't help, restore defult layout doesn't help. No child windows/dialogs come up. No MaterialUI plugin AFAIK, and couldn't disable if it was there.

Deleted config settings (.IntellijIdea20019.3 directory) and restarted/imported settings which bought back some windows (maybe until restart?)

OK it seems to be something to do with the darcula theme. the setting reste survived restart until I changed to darcula

OK so delete .IntelliJIdea2019.3/config/laf.xml resets it... so I'd say Darcula  is broken.

Hi Exphosein, please create a new thread in a PyCharm forum, providing more details about your problem. The original thread was about "Editor only showing blank screen" and PhpStorm, it would be great if we don't mix various issues & IDEs in one forum thread.

Hi. I have the same issue (totally blank form) after updating IDEA to 2020.2 version (2020.3 also with the same problem).

I use Ubuntu 18.04.
Can I count on any help? 

Interesting detail: ctrl + alt + s lets to get to Settings and Settings form looks valid and works fine. Changing Appearance Theme didn't help though.

Marcin Narzynski What form is blank exactly? Could you please attach a screenshot of this? Do you mean a PyCharm module?

The blank window is main window of IntelliJ Idea. Screenshot just shows blank window with title and border.

During starting idea.sh I've got plenty of such warnings:

Try to delete plugins folder: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/tuning-the-ide.html#plugins-directory. If that doesn't help - share your IDE logs. It's best to share them via Help | Contact Support.
