Using IntelliJ I have some Run Configurations that are grayed out.
I can still run them but I can't find why they are grayed out.
The run button at the bottom of the IDE that displays/hides the run console should have it's green arrow greyed out if there are no currently running programs. Basically the same behaviour as the arrow on the tabs.
From the main menu, select Run | Edit Configurations. Alternatively, press Alt+Shift+F10 , then 0 . on the toolbar or press Alt+Insert . The list shows the run/debug configuration templates.
In the same menu as the picture above 1 Click main toolbar then toolbar run actions. 2 At the "Toolbar Run Actions" leve, click the + button and "add action". 3 In the new popup, choose the "main menu" folder then the "run" folder. 4 Click on the "Run" icon and click ok.
A dimmed run configuration simply means it hasn't been saved. Technically called "temporary run configurations" by the IntelliJ manual:
Temporary configurations are marked with semi-transparent icons and are managed same way as the permanent configurations. By default, 5 temporary configurations are allowed per project. You can change this limit via the Edit Configurations dialog.
Saving (which makes the config permanent) can be done in either the "Run/Debug Configurations" menu (visible only when selected), or in the config selection dropdown in the general UI:
After saving, the configuration will move up to group with the reset of the saved configurations and will no longer be dimmed. As far as I can tell, you can have as many saved configs that you want.
