I’ve just started using IntelliJ (I’m used to Eclipse) and I’ve come across something that really annoys me. Whether it’s me or IntelliJ, I really want this fixed.
Every time I open a new project, the “Maven home directory” setting is reset and I therefore have to set this every time I open a project I haven’t opened before.
Is there any way to set this setting permanently/globally?
IntelliJ IDEA 2018.x or later:
Older versions:
You can change it in the Template Project Settings so that all the new projects inherit this setting. You can access it from the
Filemenu when the project is open or from the Welcome Screen:Configure|Template Project|Settings.
