Shortcuts for navigating between nested tabs in debug tool and test tool windows

Answered

Hello,

I am looking for keyboard shortcuts to navigate between the panes in the debug tool window and test runner tab. I read the documentation (https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/2016.2/test-runner-tab.html#d1489828e792 and https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/2016.2/debug-tool-window.html)

but couldn't find a way to switch between stack, variables and watches pane in the debug tool window or between run toolbar and output pane in the test runner tab.

The shortcuts ALT+Left/Right only switches the tabs (likle Frames <-> Threads).

Are there shortcuts or a key binding to set?

Actually it's designed for mouse/trackpad and there is no way to switch from cell to cell.

So, I've added an issue to do: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-164210

I see.

Thank you for adding it as an issue.

Hey guys

In pycharm debug tab : ctrl + pg_up / ctrl + pg_down worked for me to switch between internal panes (Frames/Watches/Console/Variables)

If you're just looking to navigate between the tabs in the Run window, you can do that using the same keybindings you have for Editor Tabs:

Main menu | Window | Editor Tabs | Select Next Tab

Main menu | Window | Editor Tabs | Select Previous Tab

This also works in the test runner window, but unfortunately not in the Debug window.

Another handy shortcut that works in any tool window (including Debug) is "Show List of Tabs", under Main menu | Window | Active Tool Window | Show List of Tabs.
