How to open selected files (all files) from favorites in Intellij Idea (2017)


I am working on a huge project in IntelliJ and I am using "Favorites" tab to organize the parts of project I am working on so I do not have to navigate in Project view, because it is a mess. Sometimes I need to open all my favorites files (from one folder in favorites) or selected few at once but I did not find the way to do that. I tried to look online but without success. I know its not that time consuming but at this point I am more curious if its possible.

Anyone know how to do it? Or alternatively how to organize my files within the project view while obscuring files I dont need effectively?

Thanks in advance


Solution

  • Select the files you need to open in the Favorites view with the mouse while holding the Shift key (for range selection) or Ctrl key (for individual items), then press F4.
