By default, IntelliJ has Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V set as copy/paste shortcuts. This also applies to the terminal, though.
This is odd since (on Ubuntu at least) almost every other terminal uses Ctrl + Shift + C and Ctrl + Shift + V for copy/paste shortcuts (and Ctrl + C sends SIGINT
).
Changing the copy/paste shortcut in IntelliJ's settings changes the shortcut everywhere, but I don't want it to apply to the editor (just the terminal). This behavior is even mentioned in IntelliJ's terminal help page; https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/terminal-emulator.html
The embedded terminal emulator also inherits the following IDE settings:
- On the Keymap page, you can configure the copy Ctrl + C and paste Ctrl + V shortcuts.
Is there some hidden setting I'm not seeing somewhere to change the copy/paste behavior of just the terminal in IntelliJ?
It's a known issue with no workarounds available at the moment:
