Hi All,

Does anyone know if there is a keyboard shortcut in IDL 7 to move
between editor tabs? It's analogous to CTRL+TAB in Mozilla Firefox on
Windows. If not, is there a way to create one?

Thanks,
Ryan.

They work on Linux (FC6, Ubuntu) & Windows; I'll defer to Mike Galloy
for OS X.

It works just fine as Ctrl-PageUp/Down on Mac OS X for me, but I can't
find a binding for it. (I just want to change the binding to another
keystroke.)

I can't find this as a binding. Maybe it's a "windows thing"? Does
it work on Linux, unix, macos?

Thanks Haje,

I played around with these settings yesterday after Vince's post but
couldn't get it to work properly. I just got it to work because I had
to press "Remove Binding" before setting it to something else. I must
have had an extremely long binding to switch tabs yesterday =)

Thanks for your help,
Ryan.

Ryan,
you can redefine all these shortcuts in Preferences->General-> Keys. I too
prefer ctrl-tab for switching. Type the word "editor" in the filter dialog
and change the key binding for "Next Editor".
