How to switch tabs in a tool window? (not editor tabs)
Answered
I have several tabs open in the run tool window - Bash, irb, test run etc. I have tried to use the Ctrl+Tab (with +Alt or/and +Shift ) shortcut to switch between them in the context menu, but without success.
I have read the web help page http://www.jetbrains.com/ruby/webhelp/navigating-between-files-and-tool-windows.html but found no answer.
What am I missing? How do I switch the tool window tabs from keyboard?
Thank you.

Alt+left/right arrow works for me.
Hope this helps, Oleg.
Thanks for looking into it, Oleg. I see now that there are two kinds of tabs in the run tool window. I have posted a screenshot to illustrate:
As you suggested, I can switch between the ones on the bottom (grey background) with Alt + left/right. That did not work for the tabs on the top (the blue ones).
However, extrapolating from your answer I started trying further to discover that I can switch between the blue tabs using Alt + up/down arrows.
I see, in my case I didn't have nested tabs, I'm happy hat you've found the answer :)
Regards, Oleg.
To move forward Shift + command + [ and to move backbaward Shift + command + ] worked for me.
@... you have fixed my life!!! My biggest pet peeve is to have to switch to the trackpad to switch between Local CHanges and Log in the Git tool window, something I do about 20-30 times a day at least.
