Command

Description

Show Complete Source/Source of Selected Element Only

This option can be toggled to display a segmented view of the source of the selected resource. This button applies to the currently-active editor and to all editors opened in the future; other currently-open editors are not affected.

For example, if a method is selected in the Outline view, the Show Source Of Selected Element Only option causes only that method to be displayed in the editor, as opposed to the entire class.

  • Show Complete Source : The entire compilation unit layout is displayed in the editor, with the selected element highlighted in the marker bar with a range indicator.
  • Show Source of Selected Element Only : Only the selected resource is displayed in the editor, which is linked to the selection in the Outline or Hierarchy view.

Show/Hide Text Hover

This option can be toggled to display or hide hover help for Java elements in the editor. This button applies to the currently-active editor and to all editors opened in the future; other currently-open editors are not affected.

The hover help that is controlled with this button displays Javadoc information for the type, method, or other resource underneath the cursor.
