I'm new to the IntelliJ IDE (usually work with Visual Studio) and I'd like to view the current call stack at a particular breakpoint. I've found information on building a call hierarchy but that's not what I'm looking for. Any information on how to view the current call stack would be appreciated.

The call stack is viewable when you click on the 'Debug' button on the bottom toolbar: enter image description here

Specifically, the call stack is as highlighted below : enter image description here

You may also be interested in an alternative threads view, enabled by clicking the 'Restore threads view' button: enter image description here

Here is a bit of official documentation around debugging that you may find useful if you are new to IntelliJ:

  1. Debug Tool Window
  2. Debug Tool Window - Frames
  3. Debug Tool Window - Threads
