Searching Android API documentation from inside Android Studio

Question

Inside MSVC pressing F1 while the carrot is located under an API class or function name launches a browser window that opens onto the appropriate MSDN documentation. Is there anything available to bring up the Android docs in a similarly convenient way?

Answer 1

I think there is no similar feature available in Android Studio but has similar alternatives.

Afaik, what available like this (I use Eclipse keymap ) :

• Ctrl + Left Click to find the source of current code which is hovered upon. This is useful because they have a good comment-documentation for methods. So I usually don't need to go-to references.

• Ctrl + G to find usages of current method hovered upon.

• Alt + F8 for finding sample code regarding method/Object hovered upon.
