Assistive volume button
Com.nitin.volumbutton
This is a floating button app to change volume.
I wanted to install another copy to apply different settings
I used note pad ++ to change package directories to these
Com.nitin.volumbutton2
Com.nitin2.volumbutton
But when i install;
Changing settings for the duplicate changes the settings for the original app too
Which means i end app with 2 apps with identical settings which is against my original purpose to have 2 apps with 2 different settings
I tried changing 2 directories
Nitin2
Volumbutton2
But this error happens.
How to fix ?

The problem
In PhpStorm I have a style.css- and a app.js-file that I have to upload to a server over and over again. I'm trying to automate it.
They're compiled by Webpack, so they are generated/compiled. Which means that I can't simply use the 'Tools' >> 'Deployment' >> 'Upload to...' (since that file isn't and won't every be open).
What I currently do
At the moment, every time I want to see the changed I've done, then I do this (for each file):
Navigate to the files in the file-tree (using the mouse)
Select it
The I've set up a shortcut for Main menu >> Tools >> Deployment >> Upload to..., where-after I select the server I want to upload to.
I do this approximately 100+ times per day.
The ideal solution
The ideal solution would be, that if I pressed a shortcut like CMD + Option + Shift + G
That it then uploaded a selection of files (a scope?) to a predefined remote server.
Solution attempts
Open and upload.
Changing to those files (using CMD + p) and then uploading them (once they're open). But the files are generated, which means that it takes PhpStorm a couple of seconds to render the content (which is necessary before I can do anything with the file) - so that's not faster.
Macro.
Recording a macro, uploading the two files, looking like this:
If I go to the menu and trigger the Macro, then it works. So far so good.
But if I assign a shortcut key and trigger that shortcut while in a file, then it shows me this:
And if I press '1' (for it to upload to number 1 on the list), then it uploads the file that I'm currently in(!?), and not the two files from my macro.
I've tried several different shortcuts (to rule out some kind of keyboard-shortcut-clash):
CMD + Option + CTRL + 0
CMD + Shift 0
CMD + ;
... Same result.
And the PhpStorm Macro's doesn't seem to give me that many options anyways.
Keyboard Maestro.
I've tried doing it using Keyboard Maestro.
But I can't get it setup right. Because if it can't find the folders (if they're off-screen or if I'm in a different project and forgot to adjust they shortcuts), then it blasts through the rest of the recorded actions, resulting in chaos. Ideally it should stop, if it can't find the file on the screen.
Update1 - External program
Even if it's not possible to do in PhpStorm, - are there then another program that I could achieve this with?
Update2 - Automatic Deployment in PhpStorm
I've previously used this, - but I've had happen a few times that I started sync'ing waaaay to many files, overwriting critical core files. It seems smart, but can possibly tear down walls if I've forgotten to define an ignore properly.
I wish there was an 'Automatic Deployment for theses files'-function.
Update3 - File Watchers
I looked into file-watchers ( recommendation from #LazyOne ). Based on this forum thread, then file watchers cannot be used to upload files.
It is possible to accomplish it using external program scp (Secure Copy Protocol):
Steps:
1. Create a Scope (for compiled files app.js and style.css)
2. Create a Custom File Watcher with scp over that Scope
Start with Scope:
Create a Local Scope with name scp files for your compiled files directory (I will assume that your webpack compiles into dist directory):
Then, to add dist directory into Scope, select that folder and click on Include Recursively. Apply and Move to File Watchers
Create a custom template for File Watcher:
Choose a Name
Choose File type as Any
Choose Scope as scp files(created earlier)
Choose Program as scp
Choose Arguments as $FileName$ REMOTE_USER#REMOTE_HOST:/REMOTE_DIR_PATH/$FileName$
Choose Working directory as $FileDir$
That's it, basically what we have done is every time when a file in that scope changes, that file is copied with scp to the remote server to the corresponding path.
Voila. Apply Everything and recompile your project and you will see that everything is uploaded to the server.
(I assumed that you have already set up your ssh client; Generated public/private keys; Added a public key in your remote server; And, know ssh credentials to connect to your remote server)
I figured this out myself. I posted the answer here.
The two questions are kind of similar but not identical.
This way I found is also not the best, since it stores the server password in clean text. So I'll leave the question open, in case someone can come up with a better way to achieve this.
I like PhpStorm's ability to attach multiple projects to the current window:
I've noticed, however, that all classes declared in both projects are available in both projects, which can lead to duplicate declarations:
I understand how this can be useful at times, however I'd like to attach projects just to navigate easily between them (I prefer this to switching windows), while keeping them separate as if they were in separate windows.
Is this possible?
Currently IDE does not have "scoped indexing" that may be able to resolve this. Right now you would need to exclude such duplicate files or tell IDE to not to treat them as PHP so they do not get indexed as such.
Your current options:
Use Mark Directory As | Excluded via context menu in Project View panel (or manually via Settings (Preferences on macOS) | Directories) for a folder(s) from additional project.
Mark individual files as Plain Text via context menu in Project View panel. The downside: such "marking" is IDE-wide as far as I know, so the same file path will be excluded in another project as well.
Any other exclusion mechanic that is currently available (e.g. Settings (Preferences on macOS) | Editor | File Types | Ignore files and folders -- global as well and based on file name only and file will be completely ignored from all operations... so not really acceptable for your case).
Consider watching after https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WI-17646 (star/vote/comment) and related tickets to get notified on any progress.
If they are the same classes, have you thought about making a composer package for them? Would be easier to manage it all I think.
I have the newest version of PhpStorm.
Previously I worked with Eclipse and had the opportunity to see my whole workspace. In PhpStorm I need to open one instance per project.
In my daily workflow I need to search for strings in my workspace. In
PhpStorm I would need to switch from instance to instance and need to execute the string search again and again per instance.
Is there another solution or do I really need to execute my search multiple times?
In addition eclipse had the "Open Resource" function for the whole workspace. Does PhpStorm offers the Open Resource for whole workspace too?
In PhpStorm I need to open one instance per project.
That's correct -- currently having more than one project in one frame is not supported.

You can always attach any folder (from any project) to current project as Additional Content Root (will be listed as separate branch in Project View panel).
Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Project | Directories --> "Add Content Root" button.
Note that it will still be treated as one project (no separate settings) -- additional content root is treated as just a bunch of files/folders.

Look for commands under Navigate menu.
Navigate | File... Ctrl + Shift + N (using Default keymap) is
most likely what you need.

PhpStorm has separate keymap that similar to what Eclipse uses.
How can I open few projects in left work area in PhpStorm? I need to quick switch between projects.
If you want to open more than one project in this way (and by this I mean so they have their own different settings), then currently it is not possible.

If you need to include files from those projects for reference purposes (to see how you have done it there, to copy some code from there etc) -- you can include them under "External Libraries" -- Settings | PHP | Include paths. Files included this way are protected from modifications.
If you need to modify those files ... you can add them into actual project as Additional Content Root (Settings | Directories| Add Content Root) -- such folders will be treated as part of the actual project with no separate settings.
Other than that -- Alt + Tab (or whatever the shortcut is on your OS) to switch between different PhpStorm windows (each project is opened in separate window/frame).
This is a right on time answer.
It is possible to quick switch between project by adding a keyboard shortcut to the "manage project" menu.
To do just that, go to Settings > Keymap and search for "Manage Projects". Then add it the keyboard shortcut you desire and you're all set.
Hope this will help someone looking for an answer like I did.
As LazyOne said, you can add paths to your project from Setting | PHP | Include paths or from the useful keystroke F4.
But I'd like to also share how I organise my projects, I think when you create a project, you should not open a new window but instead open it in the same window.
This way you don't get confused between the different opened windows.
In settings you can assign a keystroke to Reopen recent projects. I then use ctrl + shift + R but it is up for you to chose the keystroke you like.
Hope this will help you as I struggled as well to find a way to manage all my current projects.
After moving from Zend Studio (ZS) to PhpStorm, I am starting to miss the way that ZS used to show changed files and display more than one project at once.
For example, notice how it shows that IndexController.php has been modified.
Is there any way to do this with PhpStorm?
Starting from PhpStorm 2022.1:
To highlight folders containing vcs changed files enable:
File | Settings | Version Control | Confirmation | Highlight directories that contain modified files in the Project tree
Older versions:
As mentioned in comment by LazyOne;
The Project panel does highlight any VCS changes,
but to also highlight all parent-folders of changed-files, enable:
File | Settings | Version Control | Show directories with changed descendants
All kudos to LazyOne!
Pressing Alt + 9 (not from numpad) you can get a panel with the changed files.
Go to file >> settings >> Editor >> General >> Editor Tabs.
Check Mark modified tabs with asterisk
Click ok
For PhpStorm version 2022.1.2, on MacOS Big Sur, you will need to go to:
Preferences -> Version Control -> Confirmation, then under Changes you will need to check the "Highlight directories that contain modified files in the Project tree" box.
Another alternative: ctrl + shift + e
To be more specifically. Under File Status (settings)
[option] Have changed descendants
[option] Have immediate changed children
[option] Modified
Change this three color
Another alternative : ctrl + e
PhpStorm store all the changes on your file. If you use Git or VCS it is easy to see what changes you have, but this is also availabe for normal local projects.
Open:
VCS -> Local History -> Show History
You will see the big windows divided on 2. Left showing all the versions, right all the modified files. Double click also gives you a diff windows, showing diference between both files.
All The modificationas are shown as a scalar one, means that selecting left the top one will show just last modification. Selecting in left the scond will show agregated modification since this time.
Let me know if you need more explanation.
As in PhpStorm 2021 you can achieve it by going to Settings > Version Control > Git and check Enable Staging Area
In a Git toolbar (ctrl+9) tab named Local changes
If someone is still looking for solution:
Go to View & look for Changes option, it should bring up the tree view of changes for current project.
You can also do show diff with current working tree in VSC pane.
