backspace key not working in aptana - aptana

I've just downloaded Aptana 3.2.2 but, while editing, my backspace key is not working. I've searched on many forums, but I didn't find the issue. I'm on Ubuntu Precise, and I don't have the mouse middle-button pressed. Thank you in advance.

I have the same the problem. I solved that by creating a new file (I think it works with any type) and when I had to set a name for it, I pressed backspace.
After that I cancelled the process, and backspace was working as always in the code editor.

Not creating a file but resetting the perspective solved the issue for me.

I solved in this way (Eclipse Mars):
Window > Preferences > General > Key,
select the Command Delete Previous,
in the combo bindings select Backspace,
Apply.

RStudio keyboard shortcuts of Command+Enter and Option+Enter cannot work

My RStudio keyboard shortcuts of Command+Enter and Option+Enter cannot work, after upgrading RStudio Version 1.0.136 on my Mac BookPro notebook. Any one can help me? Many thanks.
Best,
Gary
You can try to rebind them to something different as a semi-solution. However, why the shortcuts don't work I couldn't tell you.
Go to Tools -> Modify keyboard shortcuts and in the search field type run. You will see the Run current line or selection and the bindings behind it. If they are empty then we have an immediate answer to your problem. If not, you can bind it to something different.

Atom editor : Bookmark package: bookmark toggle not working with default key mapping

I use Atom 1.8.0 on Windows 7.
The keymapping says, 'ctrl-alt-f2' with selector '.platform-win32 atom-text-editor'. If I press the combination of buttons, nothing happens.
I mapped the bookmark toggle operation to another key mapping ('ctrl-shift-1') just to see if it works, and it works. My problem of bookmarking is solved, but I wanted to know why the default combination is not working.
What am I doing wrong ? How can I trouble shoot this to find the root cause ?
The keybinding-resolver is a great way to detect conflicting keyboard shortcuts. If there are conflicts, you can use unset! to disable existing shortcuts.
If the problem persists, make sure the same shortcut isn't used globally. There is a GitHub issue reporting the Intel Graphics Control Panel is using the same shortcut globally.

Filter JDK Bug System by JavaFX

Is there a way (filter settings, etc) to see only JavaFX related bugs in the JDK Bug System?
Also, the Reporter names seem to be gone. Now I'm "J. Duke", I guess like everyone else that doesn't have an acount there. So how do I find the bugs I reported?
Sample JavaFX issue query string:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20JDK%20AND%20component%20%3D%20javafx
Created by:
Browse to: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK
Click on All Issues
Click on + More Criteria
Check Component
Click Component drop-down.
Check JavaFX
Reporter also works in advanced (jql) mode (reporter = 'your name'). Find one of your issues by other means and then copy your name as it is displayed there. Worked for me.

Aptana Studio 3.0.7 - CSS autocomplete only from the 2. line

i get CSS autocomplete only from the second line. There's no autocomplete at the first line?
And sometimes i get absolutely no autocomplete...
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks for reading that!
I guess they changed some settings, because it used to work instantly in previous Aptana versions. Here is what helped me with this problem in Aptana 3:
Window > Preferences > Aptana Studio > Content Assist > Auto-Display content assist
Change this drop-down from Default delay to Instant. Press Apply and Ok.
Please don't mind if you've already tried this and seems trivial. It wasn't for me!
Having moved from Dreamweaver where autocomplete comes on its own, I struggled with Aptana autocomplete at first. Sometimes in Aptana 3.0.7, it doesn't show up on its own and we need to hit Ctrl + Enter (on Windows)!
Also try Ctrl + Enter after typing at leaset 1- 3 Chars. This can be changed in Settings.
Hope this helps...

Switching focus between editor and terminal in Kate

When working in Unix with various programming languages I often use Kate as my primary editor.
It has a really nice function of being able to open a built-in terminal window which is quite useful.
The problem is that switching back and forth to the terminal view using a mouse is quite a pain and I can't find any shortcuts for this. The only shortcut I could find is for closing the entire terminal (not just changing the focus). This is a bit annoying as it causes the text in the terminal window to get truncated (I think it's a known Kate bug).
Does anyone know a better shortcut?
Note that the Kate bug has been fixed. The correct answer to this question is now F4.
There's a "Focus Terminal" shortcut in the "Configure shortcuts"
There you can set it up. F4 didn't work by default in my case and Shift+Tab worked only in one direction.
this is a bug in kate. possible workarounds: a) shift back by pressing Shift+Tab, b) try another shortcut (some do work). see also Bug 157496: Alt+[Key] shortcuts for menu items do not work.
Today (Kate v 22.08.2), it's
Settings > Configure Keyboard Shortcuts > Type "terminal" in Search box >
edit shortcut for "Focus Terminal Panel".
For me, the default was Ctrl+Shift+ F4, while F4 hid the terminal.
I swapped them because it's more convenient for me.
The focus shift is only visible by appearance of the cursor changing slightly.
