IntelliJ IDEA: Move line?

I really like IntelliJ IDEA's "Move statement" shortcut (Ctrl + Shift + ↑/↓). However -- I am not sure if this is a bug releated to ActionScript editing only -- move statement is not always what I want and sometimes it is not correct when editing AS code.

So I just want to move a block of lines up/down. The Eclipse shortcut is Alt + ↑/↓ and does not move statement-wise. Is there an equivalent in IntelliJ IDEA?

Solution

  • Open Settings -> Keymap then search for "move line" via the upper right searchbox.

    Under the Code folder you'll see:

    • Move Statement Down
    • Move Statement Up
    • Move Line Down
    • Move Line Up

    The actions you're looking for are (as you may guess) the move line actions.
