CTRL+TAB in Eclipse
By default, CTRL+Tab (forward switching of windows) and CTRL+SHIFT+TAB (previous switching of windows) aren’t set in Eclipse to switch between editors windows. There are other Eclipse, non-standard defaults like CTRL+F6 for forward switching. To set these shortcuts, do the following:
- Run Eclipse
- Window -> Preferences
- General -> Keys
- Search for: Next Editor
- Put the cursor in the “Binding” textbox and delete that hotkey. Then, press and hold CTRL+TAB
- Hit Apply.
- Search for: Previous Editor
- Put the cursor in the “Binding” textbox and delete that hotkey. Then, press and hold CTRL+SHIFT+TAB
- Hit Apply and OK.
Apply similar steps for Ctrl+Shift+Tab.
