Some contrast materialism and idealism and some contrast realism and idealism.

That's right. Many philosophies involve elements which combine (or could be regarded as combining) them. Plato could be read back as a realist and an idealist. What Heidegger would caution though is that reading back in that way would be misleading and would cover over the originary vision.
