Deleting a line and inserting in IntelliJ Idea Ultimate


So when I open a new class, it is not in insert mode, I am not sure but seems like when I press i, it goes into insert mode (like vim editor). Also when a line is selected, if I press the delete button it doesn't delete it and had to delete the line character by character. This problem is recent and I wonder if I have accidentally messed up with a setting. I don't have this problem in IntelliJ community edition.

Solution

  • Sounds irritating! Make sure you're not in vim mode (Tools -> VimEmulator), you might want to remove the keyboard shortcut for it too. Also make sure you're not in column mode (Edit -> column mode).

    Edit: Uncheck the Vim Emulator enter image description here
