How do you get Monodevelop back to using English for its language - monodevelop

I have no idea how it happened, but suddenly when I launch Monodevelop, the menus appear in a language other than English. I have tried reinstalling the application as well as manually removing artifacts in other directories under Library. No luck. After a reinstall, it loads in another language still.

You can change the Language under the options/preferences dialog.
For me the shortcut keystroke is 'command + comma'
Or it is the third menu entry under MonoDevelop menu.
Select the first child entry in the left tree view. "Visual Style"
On the right there are three tabs across the top. Select the first. "General"
The "User Interface Language" setting is the second combo box on that screen.
Change that and click OK at the bottom of the screen. Should be on the right.
Restart MonoDevelop.

Can you please open a bug on https://bugzilla.xamarin.com, including the Version Info from MD's about dialog, and attach your preferences file "~/Library/Preferences/MonoDevelop-2.8/MonoDevelopProperties.xml"?

ArcMap editor panel window not opening

I have installed ArcMap Desktop 10.5.1 on a new computer and have a problem. I have never experienced with any previous versions of ArcMap.
Pressing the button of the toolbar for the Editor
I can’t access the toolbar.
I also can see that the program notices that I have pressed the button by the ArcMap-window ‘flickering’ and I see the Editor-window that should open for less than a second at some occasions.
I have tried to see if it ends up hidden somewhere, but it does not seems like it.
Printscreen of the ArcMap window with the editor button
Does anyone know what can be the problem and how to handle it?
I have tried to search for answers both at the ESRI help-page, here in stackoverflow and in other broad search engines, but this doesn’t seem to be a common problem.
This problem can have many causes and there are 2 different ways to open the editor toolbar.
Try click Customize > Toolbars > Editor (I will add a pic for it)
Right-click while your mouse on the main menu. The toolbar will be open directly and check the editor. Same solution.
If you have still this problem you must see another reason for the problem.
For example, do you using a second monitor? If you using it maybe the editor toolbar coming from another monitor. Check your monitor/monitors also.
If you still have problems, please write. There is another solution.
However, I am not writing now because it will reset usage of interface.

PhpStorm 2017.1 - How Do I Get the Project Search Results to Appear As the Bottom Panel By Default?

I just upgraded to PhpStorm 2017.1 and noticed that when I do a directory search using the project explorer on the left hand side of the screen, the results now appear as a pop-up modal.
There is an option to get the results to appear as the bottom panel (like in previous versions) on the modal, but I would like it to do that by default.
How do I get the old behavior back?
To have Enter work as Ctrl+Enter, please vote for IDEA-169996.
Note that you can switch to the old dialog by deselecting ide.find.as.popup in Registry: Help | Find action, type Registry to locate it, find the option there and deselect the checkbox

PhpStorm single click preview like Sublime Text

At my new job I have to work with PhpStorm. I come from Sublime Text, and what bothers me most about PhpStorm is the lack of a single click preview of the files. In stead, it opens the files for editing and adds them to active tab, leaving me with A LOT of useless tabs.
I searched here on StackOverflow and Google, but I seem to be the only one who is annoyed by this. In Sublime it goes to edit mode only after a double click. Is there a setting or plugin to have it like in Sublime?
It's a native feature these days:
Settings... / Editor / General / Editor Tabs / Opening Policy > check "Enable preview tab"
on version PhpStorm 2022.3.2
Single Click To Open File
By default to open a file in phpstorm you have to double click it. I found this to be very annoying. Luckily you can change this to be a single click.
Steps:
Click the gear icon.
Make sure 'Autoscroll to Source' is checked
Make sure 'Autoscroll from Sourcce' is checked
http://www.ryanwright.me/cookbook/phpstorm/single-click-open-file
There is no such functionality currently available. I may only suggest to use View | Quick Definition to preview files.
Other than that: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-130918 -- watch this ticket (star/vote/comment) to get notified on progress.
Welcome in late 2019 - we got a plugin for this now:
Plugin: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/12778-quick-file-preview
Plugin Source: https://github.com/SeeSharpSoft/intellij-file-preview
IntelliJ Issue: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-130918
Don't forget to disable the "Autoscroll to Source" Feature, to get the full advantage of the plugin!
The closest you'll get right now is to enable 'Scroll To Source', however this will actually open the file in another tab, it will not be a preview.
Open the Project, Favorites, etc. side bar (cmd + 1 or ctrl + 1)
Click the gear in the top right
Select 'Scroll to Source'
Note 'Scroll to Source' can be enabled at the same as 'Scroll from Source', just make sure if you click on one file you wait until the sidebar catches up to click another, otherwise the sidebar will autoscroll back and forth between the two. You'll have to click one of them to break that loop.

This is now available as a native feature in the latest version: 2020.3!
See this comment on the YouTrack link someone posted above https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-130918#focus=Comments-27-4500169.0-0
Also on the 2020.3 feature list under User Experience there's a mention of "preview tab" here https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2020/12/intellij-idea-2020-3/

PhpStorm - Highlight active file in project navigator

Does anyone know how to highlight the current file in the project navigator, or a hotkey to expand folders to the active file?
I have looked around and couldn't find anything that points to this as an option.
Here is a nice feature: Autoscroll to Source and Autoscroll from Source.
It is available in all IntelliJ products .
On Demand
Should be used if you do not like when your Project View panel gets changed/moves without your consent.
Navigate | Select in... | Project View
Alt+F1, 1 for Windows/Linux
⌥+F1, 1 (or fn+⌥ Opt+F1, 1) for Mac OS
You may also click on "target like" icon on actual Project View panel with your mouse:
If you wish to use shorter/single shortcut instead of standard 2-step shortcut:
install "Extra Actions" plugin
assign custom shortcut to newly provided "Select in Project" action
As of some 2017.x version (or maybe even 2016.x) the IDE has own dedicated Select in Project View action (so no need for additional plugin). You can find it in Keymap under the Other branch (hint: use search box to narrow the list).
Automatically
Can be used if you do not mind (or even want) to have Project View panel keep focused on currently edited file (so it scrolls/moves up and down/expands when needed).
NOTE: with frequently switching between the files (e.g. CSS & HTML) when you have a lot of files in your project such "scrolling" may become quite annoying pretty fast (especially if such files are located in the invisible-right-now part of the project tree).
Activate Autoscroll from Source option in Project View panel (right click on tool window header bar/title or use menu under "gear" icon):
In modern versions (2020.3 and newer) that option was renamed and is now called Always Select Opened File:
Just click the circular icon (with tooltip Scroll from Source) to navigate in the project directory tree and highlight the corresponding active file in the PhpStorm editor.
On PhpStorm 2020.3 you have to click the cog icon in the project pane and select Always Select Opened Files:
The above answers are all valid but unfortunately you'll have to enable them for each project.
There's a plugin from Jetbrains that will enable this behaviour by default for all new projects.

How do I enable right-click (control-click) context menus in MonoDevelop?

Right Click (or control-click since I'm on a Mac) doesn't bring up the context menus for Solution or Projects.
For instance, in Visual Studio I would right click on a Solution to add a new project to the solution. I've looked all through the menu and can't find the add project command.
Also, how do I add a folder to a project? Again, this would be available from the right-click menu in VS, but I can't find it anywhere in MonoDevelop.
Control-click doesn't do anything for me in any part of MD. Not even in the text editor. Is there a setting to get it to behave the way I'm expecting it to?
Shouldn't these options also be available via the main menu also?
Apparently this was a known issue and has been fixed. It was a bug in the gtk+ library. Single button mice weren't supported.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=359734
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=346609
Still not sure why I'm seeing this bug now on my OSX 10.6.4 machine running the latest download of MonoDevelop.
Plugging in a 2-button mouse is an adequate work-around. I can right click and get the context menus I was looking for.
These features are where you would expect to find them, exactly where you said. The solution context menu contains Add > Add new project and the project context menu has Add > New folder
I'm on a macbook so I get to use the old double-finger tap, rather than CTRL+Clicking all the time. Not sure why the CTRL+Click is not working for you.
EDIT:
Control-Click anywhere in the solution explorer seems to bring up a context-sensitive context menu. Control-Click whilst solution is selected brings up the solution context menu and if a project is selected, the project context menu.
Control + click doesn't work but a two finger touch brings up the context menus on my Macbook Pro. Check your "Trackpad" settings in system preferences to see how you have secondary click setup on your mac.
