IntelliJ Do not open file in single click

1.7k Views Asked by At

In Mac version of IntelliJ, I see a problem with navigation. Problem is: when I click any file using mouse or select using keyboard from Project view, it automatically opens the file in Editor. Earlier, I've always double-clicked files in Project view to open them in Editor. How do I disable single click open? I tried to verify my KeyMap settings and nothing points to single click open.

After a little research, here is the setting that I've changed earlier inadvertently causing the problem.

Uncheck Autoscroll to Source in Project view settings.

If the Autoscroll to Source answer doesn't help you, it's possible you have the newer Enable Preview Tab feature enabled.

Disabling this option will allow you to single-click on items without opening a new preview pane.
