Flutter-intellij: "Wrap in widget" doesn't appear in right-click

Created on 17 May 2017  路  6Comments  路  Source: flutter/flutter-intellij

Did we consider increasing the findability by putting "wrap in widget" and other features like that into the right-click menu ?

When I select a widget constructor in my build(), I right-clicked and didn't find options to help with managing that.

I found https://flutter.io/intellij-ide/ which tells me to Alt-Click (or, on a mac, option-click) to find the cool features.

Thanks for considering right-click :)

Normally we do not include such actions in right-click menu. There's an advertising bulb already, isn't there?

@stevemessick , what's the feasibility of also exposing targeted flutter specific code actions via the context menu?

@sethladd Yes, we did consider it. In the end we went with the UI paradigm, rather than do something unusual (in the IntelliJ context, that is).

@devoncarew I think the feasibility is pretty low, given Alex's response. We can of course discuss it further, and I have some ideas.

@alexander-doroshko Are you going to bring some of those shirts to the next Dart summit? :)

AFAIR we were giving them away at Devoxx back in 2013 where we met first time :) (that's why an old logo is there).

FYI @jwren

Consider updating the flutter and dart plugins and it should work wonders
