PyCharm Settings

Use Ctrl + Alt + S (Windows) Cmd + , (MacOS) to call settings.

Open File with Associated application

Editor -> File Types -> Files Opened in Associated Applications

For example, if you want to open *.rst with system application, then add *.rst to it.

Modify Python Editor Color Theme

Editor -> Colors & Fonts -> Python

  • class def: bold pink

  • bytes, string: light yellow

  • comment: orange

Show White Space

Preference -> Editor -> General -> Appearance -> check Show Whitespaces.

Close AutoSave

I prefer to use:

  • Mark Unsaved Tabs: Preference -> Editor -> General -> Editor Tabs -> Mark Modified tabs with asterisk

  • Close Auto Save: Preference -> Appearance & Behavior -> System Settings -> Synchronization -> Uncheck Synchronize files on frame or editor tab activation, Save files on frame deactivation, Save files automatically if application is idle for xxx sec.

Sync Setting

  1. Create a repo on github, and create a token, give it repo rights.

  2. Main menu -> File -> Settings Repository -> Paste the Git Url (example: https://github.com/<user-name>/<repo-name>.git -> Enter Token

Sync Setting:

  • Overwrite Remote: save your local setting to repo.

  • Overwrite Local: pull your cloud setting and overwrite local.

注:

我现在更倾向于手动将 setting export 导出备份. 因为不是每个工作电脑都支持使用我个人的 Github Token 的.
