Overview
It may be helpful to open a file in a file manager (for example, in the Windows Explorer, if Windows is your OS), or the Finder. IntelliJ IDEA allows you to easily navigate to any part of a file path, right from the editor.
Navigating to a file path
- Hold ^/⌘ and click the relevant tab in the editor.
-
In the drop-down list, select the element you need.

The file manager shows the selected file or directory.
Viewing file path
To just view the path to a file, place the mouse pointer over the tab where the file is opened.
