document tab navigation
Posted: Thu Sep 25, 2003 4:21 am
I get very confused by the jump sequence between tabbed documents that happens with CTRL-TAB and SHIFT-CTRL-TAB. In (e.g.) Delphi, CTRL-TAB always moves you one tab to the right, SHIFT-CTRL-TAB moves you one to the left (with wraparound of course). Instead, Textpad tries to "remember" where you were and hops around in (for me) an annoyingly unpredictable way.
It would be nice to have commands for "Switch tab to the right" and "switch tab to the left ; this wouldn't disrupt functionality for those who like things the way they are, but I could re-associate CTRL-TAB and SHIFT-CTRL-TAB to these.
NB also several suggestions elsewhere in this forum to improve visibility of the active tab.
