IntelliJ IDEA - New Template

I'm trying to create a set of custom file templates for IntelliJ.

I basically want to go right-click, "New > My File Template" similar to 开发者_开发问答the "New > Java Class" bundled with IntelliJ.

I've added my own custom file template via "Settings > File Templates", but they don't appear in my "New" context menu.

This is a Java project, and my templates extension is java. Am I missing something?

All help greatly appreciated.

No My Template >>>

If you select Java Class you can then choose the template for your new class. This is a new feature, it used to be available when selecting New.

Actually you can, sort of.

I don't know know how to do it for Java files. but if you set the extension to txt you it will show up in the right click menu.

and here it is in the menu:

the only issue is if you're creating a java class you'll have to rename the file after creation to ${name}.java
