how to change editor behavior in intellij idea

Question

I have installed IntelliJIdea 14.0.2 just now. I do not know its default editor but it is opening my source files in vi option now. So, not letting me do default action like Ctrl + v, Ctrl + d which was present before and I used to like it.

So, how to change this behavior like present in sublime - editors?

Solution 1

If you don't need vi keybindings, uninstall the IdeaVIM plugin.

Solution 2

disable below option in menu bar.

Tools -> VimEmulator(Ctrl + Alt + V)

Solution 3

If you don't want to uninstall vi, you can either turn it off, like @redredtokki states (Tools > VimEmulator), or

Change the Ctrl-X and Ctrl-V keys in File > Settings

under: Editor > Vim Emulation:

Change the column on the right from "Vim" to "IDE".

Solution 4

If you wanna use vim and also shortcuts like Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V/Ctrl+X, you may redefine the shortcuts as IDE shortcuts in:

File-->Settings-->Other Settings-->Vim Emulator
