Shortcut to select a line of code in Android Studio
You might also use CTRL + W several times.
There is Command + C that will copy the entire line. But if you are like me and you don't want to pollute your clipboard history with line selections, you can try this solution. (Command + Shift + V to view clipboard history)
- Go to Android Studio Preferences
- Go to
Keymap - Expand
Editor Actions - Scroll down to
Select Line at Caret - Assign any key command you want to it. I used
Command+L, but it is up to you.
Shift+Home or Shift+End will select all the text from the current caret position to the beginning or end of the current line. (Cmd+Shift+Left or Cmd+Shift+Right on mac). You can also triple-click on the required line to select it wholly. This can also be achieved by clicking on the line number.
If you want to copy/cut an entire line then Ctrl+C or Ctrl+X after placing the caret on the required line will do.
They have more useful shortcuts here.
