VS 2010: How can I use the "next tab", "previous tab"?

Question

How do I get the shortcuts for the keys "next tab", "previous tab" to work in Visual Studios 2010?

(For a more accurate description of the functionality I need, see firefox / chrome / etc and how they execute their keyboard shortcuts "ctrl-pgdn" and "ctrl-pgup").

It should be extremely simple ... and yet I cannot understand it.

Note:

I know there is a "ctrl-tab" that looks like ... but it scrolls only the "last used list", which is different. I don't care about the "most recent list." I just want to go to the right / left tab.

Answer 1

You should display Window.NextDocumentWellTab and not View.NextTab and remove it from any other functions assigned to it. Only displaying it will not work, you also need to undo everything that uses it, apparently.

This is what my keyboard configuration looks like:

Looked at this a little more and you need to install Performance Tools . This gives you the NextDocumentWellTab function.

Answer 2

In Visual Studio 2010 Professional, this shortcut is combined with the name Window.PreviousDocumentWindow and Window.NextDocumentWindow .

Important Note . By default, Ctrl-PgUp and Ctrl-PgDown are assigned to Edit.ViewTop and Edit.ViewBottom , so be sure to delete the existing keyboard assignment . > before trying out a new task. If you do not, the keyboard commands that you enter will continue to be interpreted as the most “specific” shortcut ( Edit.ViewTop or Edit.ViewBottom ), since you are most likely trying to do this in the “Edit” window!
