I'm transitioning from Visual Studio Code to PyCharm and I'm trying to find the equivalent of the Ctrl + D shortcut in VSCode, which is used to select the next occurrence of the current word or selection for multi-cursor editing.
Does anyone know what the corresponding shortcut is in PyCharm?

Hey there! Welcome to the PyCharm world! 🎉
I totally get it—transitioning from VSCode can take a bit of adjustment. But no worries, I've got you covered. In PyCharm, you can achieve the same multi-cursor magic as Ctrl + D in VSCode with these shortcuts:
- Select Next Occurrence:
Alt + J - Unselect Previous Occurrence:
Alt + Shift + J
Just hit Alt + J to select the next occurrence of your current word or selection, and if you go too far, `Alt + Shift + J` will unselect the previous one. It's super handy once you get the hang of it!
Happy coding in PyCharm! 😊
