| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Type | Specify the type of the new parameter. Usually, you don't need to change the type suggested by IntelliJ IDEA. |
| Name | Specify the name for the new parameter. |
| Declare final | Select this option to declare the parameter final. |
| Delegate via overloading method | Select this option to keep the existing method calls unchanged. As a result, a new overloading method will be created and the new parameter will be added to the definition of this method. The method with the old signature will be kept. The call to the new method will be added to the old method. The necessary value (or expression) will be passed to the new method in this call. |
| Remove parameter <name> no longer used | Select this checkbox to remove a parameter. |
| Use explicit return statement | This checkbox is active if the method returns a value. You can omit return keyword if it is the last return statement in the method. If you select this checkbox the keyword is returned. |
| Parameters | In this area, select parameters to be passed to the new method/function. |
| Move Up/Down | Use these buttons to change the order of the parameters. |
| Signature preview | In this read-only field, view the declaration of the new method/function. |
