This feature is supported in the Ultimate edition only.

Seam support in IntelliJ IDEA includes support for conversations. The beginning and the end of a conversation are denoted with the @Begin and @End annotations respectively. In the source code editor, these annotations are marked with the gutter icons:

  • ../../Shared/icon_SeamToBegin.png jump to the beginning of a conversation.
  • ../../Shared/icon_SeamToEnd.png jump to the end of a conversation.

IntelliJ IDEA enables you navigate from the beginning of a conversation to its end, and vice versa.

To navigate between the beginning and ending points of a conversation
  • Click the gutter icon to the left from the @Begin annotation:

  • Click the gutter icon to the left from the @End annotation:

    If there are several possible end points of a conversation, you are prompted to select the desired one:
