'Navigating between splits
I wanted to settup vim-tmux-navigation like navigation on intellij IDE and only way to settup this is from IdeaVim so my configuration in settings -> keymap looks like this:
- VimWindowDown_____ alt J
- VimWindowLeft______ alt L
- VimWindowRight_____alt H
- VimWindowUp_______ alt K
But when I split the windows it's not working.... Is this a bug or I'm missing some stuff?
Oh and don't suggest me switcher for my problem...

The best place for setting up custom keys for Vim actions is the ~/.ideavimrc file. You can use the standard Vim map/nmap/noremap/imap/... commands there. For example:
nmap <A-J> <C-W>j
For potential keymap conflicts between the Vim emulation and the IDE see Settings | Vim Emulation.
Chaning Vim actions via Settings | Keymap is not recommended.

OK, got a partial answer.
There is a "Go To Next Splitter" and "Go To Previous Splitter" commands in IntelliJ. So in the keymap settings, change or add keystrokes for those commands to C-h and C-l (or whatever you want). If you are using ideavim, don't forget to override those keymap settings so that C-h and C-l are set to use the IDE. C-h and C-l will probably already be used so be sure you don't need the existing hotkey before you make the change.
This solution will at least allow you to move left/right quickly. Not sure it's going to be possible to move between up/down splits without doing some scripting or if that's even possible to do with scripting.
