How do I change intellij idea to compile with scala 2.11?

Question

I am using Intellij Idea 13.1.4. I have a scala sbt project. It is currently being compiled with Scala 2.10. I would like to change this to Scala 2.11. In my build.sbt, I have:

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(   "org.scala-lang" % "scala-compiler" % "2.11.0",   ... ) 

When I build my project, it still builds as a Scala 2.10 project.

Also, under my Project Settings->Modules->Scala->Facet 'Scala'->Compiler library, Intellij still shows scala-compiler-bundle:2.10.2. There is no option for a 2.11.x bundle. How would I get an option for Scala 2.11.x?

Thanks!

In IntelliJ 2016.x you upgrade Scala by

Ensure Scala Plugin up to date.

Then by going to:

File | Other Settings | Default Project Structure | Global Libraries

Click the + button at the top left hand side of the Window

Select Scala SDK

Choose the version you want to install.
