Hi, I just switched from eclipse to intellij 9.0 and it is wonderful. The one thing I miss the most is the "Show breadcrumbs" line in Eclipse which shows me the method I am located in - in the class file. The solution is obviously to write short methods, but I do need the "show breadcrumbs" feature from time to time. Any one knows if there is a similar feature in intellij? thanks.
A:
You could either use the structure panel with an "Auto-scroll from source" or show the "file structure popup" (in view).

I tried this, but it only shows the current class, not the current method.

It will show current method signature if the method start doesn't fit the screen. I've just verified it with IDEA 9.0.3.

@CrazyCoder, my bad, the signature was still visible when I tried.

Thanks. This is pretty good solution.
