solved [SOLVED] Is it possible to search open Intellij IDEA project window

[Jim Tao]

Hi,

 

I often have multiple Intellij IDEA windows open simultaneously. What's annoying to me is that I often end up clicking the Window item in the top menu bar and them select the one I want from the a list like below.

 

 

What I want to achieve is something as follows. After invoking the Alfred box (alt + space), when I type "i" (suppose I use it to trigger Intellij window search), alfred will list the open windows below the Alfred input box. And then, when I enter more characters in the input box, Alfred will filter the list by doing a fuzzy match. For example, when type "i urls", Alfred will only show the "urls_trunk" project, and when I hit "Enter", it will bring the focus to the corresponding Intellij window.

 

FYI, I am 100% newbie to Alfred and I have only used it for a few days. Thanks.

Welcome @Jim Tao,

 

Not sure if it’ll work for that, but try the Menu Search Workflow or using a shortcut for the Help Menu.

@vitor Thank you so much! The Menu Search nailed it for me.
