Keyboard shortcut for Jump to Previous View Location (Navigate back/forward) in IntelliJ IDEA

Question

I know Ctrl+Shift+Backspace is used to go to the location of the last edit.

But I want to jump to whichever location I was most rece

Answer 1

The underlying problem is Ctrl+Alt+Left and Right are used by window managers to switch workspace and/or OEM utilities to change the screen orientation.

You can change the assignments using File / Settings / Keymap then Main Menu / Navigate find Back and Forward and right click to Add Keyboard Shortcut to set an alternative key chord.

Alt Graph+Left and Alt Graph+Right works well for me (IDEA 13.1.4 on Ubuntu under IceWM).
