Jump to any part of a keypath

Jump to any part of a keypath

Editing a template and want to jump to the Java behind a binding? Put your cursor in a keypath and hit F3 — the same “Open Declaration” shortcut you already use in Java code. It now works in the template editor too, on element tags, binding names, and binding values, so you can navigate without reaching for the mouse.

The nice part is how it treats a keypath. Eclipse normally sees $activeUser.address.city as one thing and, on Cmd+click, jumps to the very end — the city method. But often you want a segment in the middle. Now both F3 and Cmd+click open the segment your cursor is actually on:

• On activeUser → opens activeUser
• On address → opens address
• On city → opens city

And when you hold Cmd and hover, the underline now highlights just the segment you’re pointing at — so what lights up is exactly what a click will open.
