  1. Eclipse has this feature where you can search any file in your folder. Is there any such feature in PhpStorm?

  2. Is there a shortcut for indentation and how can I customize that?

Googled it, but no results.

From the Menu of PHPStorm Choose Navigate -> File or use the shortcut ALT+SHIFT+O or CMD+SHIFT+O or CTRL+SHIFT+N (as per the edit). Type the required file name you want to search. Done.

Screenshot for your understanding.

Ctrl+Shift+N - search in whole project, that is minus. If you need to search in some specific folder, you can use the "File mask:"

Press Ctrl+Shift+N and in the right top corner you will have this field. Look at the screenshot.

  1. On the main menu, choose Edit | Find | Find in Path, or press Ctrl+Shift+F (see http://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/webhelp/finding-and-replacing-text-in-project.html)

  2. On the main menu, choose Code | Reformat Code, or press Ctrl+Alt+L (see http://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/webhelp/reformatting-source-code.html)

Another and easy way would be to press double Shift on Linux or Windows. It would open a search bar and from there select file. More over exact short cut can be found(as told above) by Nagivigation>Find.
