Alt L Shortcut In Android Studio
  1. 34 Shortcuts for Android Studio. General Shortcuts. Ctrl + Shift + N. Alt + Arrow Left / Arrow Right. Navigate open tabs.
  2. Note: This section lists Android Studio keyboard shortcuts for the default keymap. To change the default keymap on Windows and Linux, go to File Settings Keymap. If you're using Mac OS X, update your keymap to use the Mac OS X 10.5+ version keymaps under Android Studio Preferences Keymap.

To create your own custom code style, go to: Preferences -> Editor -> Code Style

There are some general code style settings here. You can also select the language (Java for Android) and set the parameters as you see fit. There's a lot of settings.

Once you've done this, save your code style. This is just for safe keeping.

Once you've saved it, select 'Copy to Project' from the 'Manage' dialog. You will be asked whether you want to switch to this created scheme. Answer yes.

Once this is done, close the Code Style preferences dialog.

Now, verify that your code style settings have been saved in: .idea/codeStyleSettings.xml

Ensure that this file is not ignored in your version control system so that you can share it with your teammates.

Once your teammates have this file, they should also have the same settings.

Now, when editing a file, you can format the code by selecting:

Code -> Reformat Code

Shortcuts for Reformat Code (taken from this answer - see answer for details on resolving issues with shortcut in Ubuntu):

Win

Ctrl + Alt + L

Linux:

Ctrl + Shift + Alt + L

Mac:

Option + Command + L

When you perform a code reformat, a small dialog should popup informing you of the changes made. You can click 'Show' in this dialog to bring up the 'Reformat File Dialog'.

You can also bring up this dialog from the Code menu and its corresponding shortcut.

Be warned that 'Only VCS changed text' doesn't always work depending on how the code has been edited (it may ignore a rule if part of the code has not been edited).

You can also select text and show the reformat code dialog to format only the select text.

Reviewing and Changing Keyboard Shortcuts in Android Studio

Keyboard shortcuts can be configured (and reviewed) via the Settings dialog, accessible via File -> Settings.

Once this dialog appears, to review (and/or add) a shortcut, do the following:

  1. Select Keymap in the list on the left. Note that there is a 'Keymaps' option, and depending on the original selection, shortcuts assigned to a given feature differ based on the Keymap.

  2. Type 'comment' or text corresponding to the feature for which the keyboard shortcut is to be reviewed/assigned. Each match has a line entry in the list below, and keyboard shortcuts are shown right-justified along with the feature. For example, both CTRL+ALT+SLASH and CTRL+K, CTRL+C are the two assignments for creating a line comment.

To modify a shortcut:

  1. Select the resultant line corresponding to the feature for which the keyboard shortcut is to be reviewed/assigned
  2. Right-click, and select the desired Add or Remove option.
Answers:

I am working with a german keyboard and the slash (/) is on the 7 key, meaning access would be Ctrl + Shift + 7. However, this does not work as this is predefined as something with bookmark 7.

I went to settings (search for keymap) and deleted all existing shortcuts. I than added Ctrl + 7, confirmed deletion of bookmark shortcut and now can work well.
