WindowPaneNext Keystroke Assignment

Post by spherman »

I have been asking for years for this, but I feel the need to ask yet again.

I want to assign the keystroke...
Ctrl+Tab to the WindowPaneNext and
Ctrl+Shift+Tab to the WindowPanePrev

Currently these fuctions are set to F6 and Ctrl+F6.

It allows me to assign other keystrokes, but for some reason, it will not take that one.

Long ago you had this working like this in version 1.32a. I am stuck on that version since I am so used to it.

See the old thread http://forums.textpad.com/viewtopic.php ... ht=ctrltab for more of my frustration.

OMG.... I just stumbled into the solution.

Since my trusty copy of Textpad 1.2 crashes in Windows 7 when you try to do a SaveAs.

Anyway...

I am posting my solution in hopes that it helps someone else.

I figured that if I has to conform and use F6 instead of Ctrl+Tab then I wanted to disable Ctrl+Tab. So I removed the Key Stroke assigned to WindowPaneNext (and WindowPanePrev) so that I would not inadvertantly go to the wrong file.

So I started working and of course I hit Ctrl+Tab and it went to the next file, but Guess What???? It now has the fuctionality of Window Next instead. That's what I have been wanting all along! YEARS I have been asking for this. No help.... Sigh.....

I hope this helps someone.
