IntelliJ 13 - Add Navigate Back/Forward to toolbar?

Intellij IdeaNavigationIdeToolbar

Intellij Idea Problem Overview

Jetbrains changed the toolbars in IntelliJ 13.

The Navigate Back & Forward arrows, shown here, used to be in the top toolbar and easily clickable.

back/forward Now the only way I can find to access these fields is to go to Navigate -> Back or Navigate -> Forward.

Does anyone know of a way to add these back/forward locations into an always visible toolbar like they were located in IntelliJ 12?

Solution 1 - Intellij Idea

For some reason the toolbar is not visible by default.

In the View menu, select Toolbar. That should fix it.

Solution 2 - Intellij Idea

I am using Idea 13 and my toolbar already has these buttons:

IntelliJ 13 Toolbar

The icon groups are:

file | undo/redo | cut/copy/paste | font size | back/forward | compile/run | vcs | config | help | jira | tasks

You should be looking at the back/forward buttons in the 5th group.

If you want to make the toolbar visible, it's one of the checkable options on the view menu.

The toolbar already contains the "Back" and "Forward" buttons.

###Configure toolbar

  • Method 1

  • File > Settings... > Appearance & Behavior > Menus and Toolbars > Main Toolbar > select one row and click on "Add After..." if you want to add a new button (E.g.: if you accidentally removed the Forward button and you want it back)

    enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here

  • Method 2

  • Right click on the toolbar > Customize Menus and Toolbars...

    enter image description here

  • Use the approach that is described in Method 1

The Conan's answer helped me with the same issue. 2Conan - make your comment as an answer. It helps with TS issue. Just for sure posting his answer here ...

OK, you can do this. Turn the toolbar on, with View > Toolbar. Right click it, and choose Customize Menus and Toolbars. In the Navigation Bar Toolbar folder, add the icons from Main menu > Navigate > Back / Forward, choose OK, then go and turn off the toolbar with View > Toolbar again.
