List implicit conversions

Select an expression and press Ctrl+Shift+Q (Ctrl+Q for macOS) to invoke the list of applicable implicit conversions. The list shows the regular scope displayed on the top and the expanded scope displayed on the bottom of the list.

If you need, make the implicit conversion method explicit. Press Alt+Enter and select Make explicit or Make explicit (Import method).

• If you select Make explicit, IntelliJ IDEA returns a method call with the class name. It might be helpful if you need to make sure that the compiler imports a particular implicit conversion method that you originally wanted:

  

• If you select Make explicit (Import method), the method is imported statically, and IntelliJ IDEA returns just its call without the class name. Also, the next time you open the list of useful implicit conversions, you will see this method in the regular scope:

  

List implicit arguments

Place the caret at the method where implicit conversion was used and press Ctrl+Shift+P to invoke implicit arguments. It might be helpful for code analyzing when you want to find out what implicit arguments were passed to the particular call. It also lets you view the recursive implicit arguments.

If IntelliJ IDEA cannot find method calls where implicit parameters were passed, it displays a pop-up message:
