IntelliJ IDEA 2016.3 Help

Navigating Between an Observer and an Event

This feature is supported in the Ultimate edition only.

If a method is marked as an observer of a certain event type, you can jump to a method where this event is raised, using the Show Usages command.

To navigate from an observer to an event to be observed

  1. In the editor, place the caret at the event type value in the @Observer annotation.
  2. Press Ctrl+Alt+F7, or choose Edit | Find | Show Usages on the main menu.
  3. From the suggestion list, select the desired destination.
