keyboard shortcut for small tab switching (in sql window for example)

Hello

Is it possible to define keyboard shortcut that would enable switching back and forward between "SQL" and "Output" tabs in SQL Window or "Test Script" and "Dbms Output" tabs in Test windows ?

I know Ctrl+Tab switches between opened windows, but I would like to switch tabs in particular window with keyboard.

Regards,
Matjaz
 
Yes, you can use Ctrl-H and Ctrl-Shift-H to select the next/previous tab page.

You can select different function keys through Tools > Preferences > Key Configuration (Edit / Next Tab Page and Edit / Previous Tab Page).
 
oh, that I didn't see.
Thank you.

One more question:
Are there also shortcuts for switching tabs above SQL results grid when I run multiple queries in SQL window and I get SQL results shown in "many tabs" ?

Regards,
Matjaz
 
Hate to reopen a two year old topic, but I hate to open a new topic for a question that's already been asked.

This is what I came here searching for, and there isn't an answer yet. If I run six queries, I get six results grids... I need a shortcut to switch between grid, much like ctrl+tab switches between windows. I can't find any setting to assign a keyboard shortcut to for this.

Thanks,
James
 
By default Ctrl-H and Ctrl-Shift-H will move to the next and previous tab page. You can change the shortcut key through Tool > Preferences > Key Configuration (Edit / Next Tab Page and Edit / Previous Tab Page).
 
Those shortcuts work for the main tabs, but not the results tabs. In other words, I select six SQL statements and run them... I get six results tabs down below. I'm looking for a shortcut to switch between those tabs.

I did some more research based on what you said... Editor: Nav Back and Editor: Nav Forward do what I'm looking for, and SQL Window: Switch between Editor/Results will get me down there, but it puts me in the first cell (editing)... Nav Back/Forward won't work until I get out of that cell, and to get out of the cell, I have to click on a tab.

Thanks for your help... does that make what I'm trying to do clearer?
 
Correction: The Left/Right arrow keys move between the tabs, not Nav Back and Nav Forward (I assigned ALT+Left and ALT+Right to those, but the ALT is ignored... just coincidence).

Left and Right arrow keys are not assigned to anything in my shortcuts, so I'm assuming these are built in... now I just need a way to switch to the results without ending up in a cell so I can use the arrow keys.

Suggestions?
 
James, try this. After executing multiple queries switch to Results (you can set keyboard shortcut for this switching, for example I use F7). Now navigating back and forward starts to work between grids (default shorcuts are Ctrl+H and Crl+Shift+H) as Marco Kalter wrote above.
