No hotkey configurtion for moveing between tabs

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Trying to reconfigure the Next/Prev Tab (document) has no available hot key.

Is it possible to add configuration for that?
I'm used that in linux I'm moving between tabs using CTRL+PageUp/PageDown
and in windows I use CTRL+Tab and CTRL+SHIFT+Tab.

Thanks!

Currently its not configurable but you can use Ctrl+Tab on all platforms to 
switch
between tabs.

Hey Code,
That is true,
But the CTRL+TAB is only moving between the recent tabs,
i.e. if you have more than a couple of tabs, you are stuck between them and you 
can't
move.

I'd prefer a behaviour where CTRL+TAB moves to the next in line tab (from
left-to-right), and CTRL+SHIFT+TAB moves to the previous tab (from 
right-to-left).

Plus as I've said, in linux is common that moving between tabs is done by
CTRL+PageUp/PageDown rather then Tabs.

Hello,

This is exactly how it works now.

Ctrl+Tab once move to next tab, Hit Tab again while still holding control will 
go to
the next tab after that, and so on.

Ctrl+Shift+Tab move to previous tab, Hit Tab again move to the next previous 
tab in
the list, and so on...

You can move between all tabs in a given window this way.

Version 0.2.29, in Ubuntu.

Thank you for this program.  I really like where you are going with it.  One 
thing
that really kills me is lack of keyboard tab-switching.

How bizarre for me to read here that CTRL-TAB switches to the next tab, since it
doesn't at all for me.  It brings up a small window with a vertical listing of 
tabs.
 It has the exact same usefulness as if I has just clicked directly on a tab at the
top, but with extra clicking.  Once that little window is open, it does not 
respond
to the keyboard at all.  I MUST double-click one of the list before Editra will
respond again.

The whole point of CTRL-TAB is to not be dependent on the mouse.

Thank you!

Hello,

First you are using an extremely old version of the program, would suggest an 
upgrade.

The popup dialog lists the tabs so they are easier to see whats next, you do 
not have
to use the mouse to select the tab in it. Just keep hitting tab to go to the 
next one
(or Shift+Tab to go to the previous one), and once you release Ctrl it will 
select
the tab that is highlighted.

I can't comment on whether or not there was a bug in that version of the 
program or
not (as its over a year old), but I cannot reproduce the described behavior on 
my Mac
or Windows box. Will check on Linux next time I have it turned on.

I think what the original poster was trying to say was that the Ctrl-Tab 
interface only switches through tabs as sorted by most recently viewed, whereas 
an interface that switches through tabs based on a persistent linear order 
(vis-a-vis Ctrl-PgUp/PgDown) might be more efficient.

Same issue for mac. Usually, switching between tabs is done with either 
Cmd-Shift-left/right or Cmd-Alt-left/right, depending on the programs. Usually 
there is a "Select Next Tab" and "Select Previous Tab" shortcut under the 
Window menu, so you can customize it.
