Shows concrete, usable Eclipse moves: use Quick Access (Ctrl/⌘3) to find views, commands or help text, split editors and zoom with pinch or Ctrl+/- for vertical space, mark test folders so searches and call hierarchies ignore tests, add multiple method breakpoints from the outline and coordinate them with trigger points that suppress others until hit, run sequenced apps with launch groups, inspect layouts with the SWT layout spy and catch API regressions with API Tools.
