"Find usages in file" vs "Highlight usages in file"

Answered

Hi guys - 

What's the difference between "Find usages in file" (⌘F7) and "Highlight usages in File" (⬆⌘F7)? 

 

From what I can see, they're identical in functionality. Just curious if there is a difference - whether in GoLand or in another language (e.g: Java) on IntelliJ ?

Hi,

Since 2020.1, there is no differences between them.

Before 2020.1 they had some subtle differences, for example "Find usages in file" was automatically navigating to the first usage.

Having two similar actions were confusing, so we have decided to merge them, and this is still in progress. Please follow this issue: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-235190
