how to toggle active view?
« on: January 30, 2011, 04:34:42 am »
How can I toggle/rotate between the active view windows? I typically have a few tabs open, and in MC14 I could press "Ctrl+Tab" and "Ctrl+Shift+Tab" to move forward and backward through the tabs respectively. When I try it in MC15, it seems to highlight the entire tab row, then if I press it again it jumps to the first tab. I can't cycle forward and back like I used to.

I've tried mucking around with the Resource.xml file in the default and custom directory, but to no avail.

note: Ctrl+W closes tabs properly though

It seems that there is no support for this in v15. It is not listed in the wiki:

on the other hand, neither is Ctrl-W which from what I tell 1. updates the view + 2. closes the tab.

Well that's too bad. It was one of the few shortcuts I actually used very frequently (I even programmed it into my back/forward buttons on my mouse) since I flip between different views often while dj'ing.

It may be just a bug.

Could it have anything to do with the parameter or global values in the resource.xml files?

Appears to be a bug since the command is still listed in the menu.
The way I read it though it looks like it is assigned to split view
instead of tabs, I could be wrong though.
Just to cure my curiosity I tried it in split view and it doesn't
work there either.

I tried it with split view too. Hopefully the bug gets fixed soon. I'll probably wind up changing the keys to Ctrl+PgUp/PgDn to match the tab convention in Firefox and Open Office (I assume IE and Excel too, but I haven't used those in years).

In a related request, being able to drag and reorganize the tabs would be nice.
