java - How to view the list of compile errors in IntelliJ?

Question

I am looking for a way to view all compile errors in IntelliJ, similar to how they are displayed in Eclipse. I tried searching here and Google but have not really found a solution. I really like IntelliJ, I recently converted to it from Eclipse, and I hope this is just something I am missing and not a fundamental deficiency.

I think this comes closest to what you wish:

(From IntelliJ IDEA Q&A for Eclipse Users):

The above can be combined with a recently introduced option in Compiler settings to get a view very similar to that of Eclipse.

Things to do:

1. Switch to 'Problems' view in the Project pane:
   
   

2. Enable the setting to compile the project automatically :
   
   

3. Finally, look at the Problems view:
   
   

Here is a comparison of what the same project (with a compilation error) looks like in Intellij IDEA 13.xx and Eclipse Kepler:
