[Android SDK] Useful keyboard shortcuts for Android Studio

Posted on by Standard

The ones I use most:

While developing

Alt+enter over class in code (.java): Quick assistance (import class, override methods, etc)
Alt+enter over string in code (.java): Extract string resource (include in res/values/strings.xml)
Alt+enter over string in resource file (.xml): Extract string resource (same as previous)

Shift+Cmd+F9: Make module (only current module)
Shift+Cmd+UP: Move this line UP (in .java)
Shift+Cmd+DOWN: Move this line DOWN (in .java)

Ctrl+R (aka ^ R): Run
Ctrl+Alt+D: Debug
Ctrl+Alt+I: Auto-indent code

Cmd+Backspace: Remove current line (VERY USEFUL)
Cmd+D: Duplicate current line (VERY USEFUL)

Cmd+F9: Make project  (all modules, app, wear, glass..)

When debugging:

F8: Step over
Cmd+Alt+R: Continue execution (what a weird shortcut this one)

I’ll keep completing it everytime I find a really useful one. Feel free to post your own in comments!
