[InterlliJ 13] Terminal tab switch hotkey

Answered

Hi,

I find the embedded terminal window a great feature. But when creating multiple terminal tabls (with cmd+t), I did not find any shortcut key to easily switch between tabs, is there any?

Thanks

Hello Brice,

You could use "Window - Editor Tabs - Select Next/Previous Tab" (you could find shortcut near action name).
On Mac you'll need to disable mappings in "OS Settings - Keyboard - Mission Control - Move Left/Right a space".

For others with this question: For me, on Mac, the native terminal shortcut of cmd - shift - ] works: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/37744/are-there-any-keyboard-shortcuts-to-switch-between-tabs-in-terminal

On Ubuntu:

Alt + Left 

Alt + Right

This was working for me, stopped working recently, probably with an IDEA upgrade. All I get now is [5D displayed in the terminal when hitting ctrl-leftArrow

Anyone else have an issue with this?

@Gulli what shortcut do you have assigned to Main menu | Window | Editor Tabs | Select Next Tab action? What IDE version and OS do you use?

What do you mean by invalid? What is the shortcut for the mentioned action you have assigned?

Hello,

I'm also encountering this issue with the last version of Webstorm 

WebStorm 2018.3

Main menu | Window | Editor Tabs | Select Next Tab : 
2 shortcuts are defined:

  1. ^→
  2. ⌘⌥→ 

Main menu | Window | Editor Tabs | Select Previous Tab : 
2 shortcuts are defined:

  1. ^←
  2. ⌘⌥←

It used to work until now. From now, it types characters:

Both ^→ and ⌘⌥→ types "C"

Both  ^← and ⌘⌥← types "D"
