Question

In Eclipse, I can format comments by selecting them and pressing Shift + Ctrl + F. For example, when I select a method comment like this:

/**
 * This method
 * does some stuff.
 */

and press Shift + Ctrl + F, Eclipse automatically wraps it:

/**
 * This method does some stuff.
 */

Is there anything comparable to this in IDEA?

EDIT: To clarify, I’m looking for comment formatting that also breaks lines that are too long into multiple lines.

Answer 1

The closest thing that you can get is Edit | Join Lines (Ctrl+Shift+J). You have to select the lines you want to join first.

To wrap long comments enable Settings | Code Style | JavaDoc | Wrap at right margin.
