Some of the time savers:
- Alt + Enter : show intention actions (like Eclipse quick fix)
- Ctrl + Alt + V : introduce variable (never type the left hand side of an assignment again)
- Ctrl + Shift + Space : smart completion ( even two levels down since IntelliJ 8 )
- Ctrl + W : select succesively increasing code blocks. Kind of obvious but a real time saver!
The Canoo blog contains some (+8) articles on some more advanced IntelliJ keyboard shortcuts.
The Key Promoter and Shortcut keys list plugins are really helpful for (constantly) learning new IntelliJ keyboard shortcuts.
