How to create a file from scratch in IntelliJ 14?

Scratch files are mentioned in the release notes for IntelliJ 14, but it does not mention how to create or use them. Any documentation links would be extremely helpful.

What have i tried

I have already done several searches on the Internet to create files from scratch, and the only thing that came up were articles about this feature, none of which indicate how to use this feature.

I also tried File → Create ... but there is no option for files with scratches.

I found the documentation on scratch files in the PhpStorm plugin , but even though they are both JetbBrains products that appear to be completely unrelated, and none of these shortcuts work,

Tip. You can find any action in the Help menu → Find Action ....

This specific action is in the menu "Tools" → "New scratch file ...".
