Hi Eugene. I wasn't talking about moving the method, but the stage before when I made the method static. At that point the reference to this.someField should have been highlighted with the message: "Non-static variable someField cannot be referenced from a static context" which is what happens if I just refer to someField (without the this qualifier).
I'm sure it will be covered when IDEAs syntax highlighting is more complete.
