Most
application that allows multiple windows allow you to switch between them using
ctrl+tab key. Not eclipse. It uses ctrl+F6 and so does RAD etc. But this can be
changed. To change the key that switches between classes (small windows within
eclipse),
- go to Window
> Preferences > expand Workbench > select Keys
- In the Category
dropdown, select Window
- In the Name
dropdown, select Next Editor
- Put the cursor
in the Name field in the Key Sequence section and press ctrl+tab. Do not
type ctrl+tab, press those keys
- Click Add, the
key assignment is added to Assignments section
- Optionally,
remove the ctrl+F6 assignment by selecting it and clicking Remove button
- Click Apply and
then OK buttons to close the dialog box
If
you are using eclipse 3.1.2 OR WebSphere Application Server toolkit v6.1, the
procedure is similar but the buttons are little different:
- go to Window
> Preferences > expand General > select Keys
- In the Category
dropdown, select Window
- In the Name
dropdown, select Next Editor
- Put the cursor
in the Name field in the Key Sequence section and press ctrl+tab. Do not
type ctrl+tab, press those keys
- Click Add, the
key assignment is added to Assignments section
- Optionally,
remove the ctrl+F6 assignment by selecting it and clicking Remove button
- Click Apply and
then OK buttons to close the dialog box
