Tab Cycling Behavior (Ctrl + Tab)

Post by vertigo »

Can you add an option to cycle tabs in the recently used order like in most browsers, Notepad++, etc? It could be done by holding Ctrl and switching to the most recent tab, then the next, and so on, each time Tab is pressed, and releasing and repressing Ctrl restarts the sequence, or (my preferred way) like in N++ where you hold Ctrl and press Tab and it shows a popup of all tabs, and each time you press Tab, it moves to the next in the list, and the up/down arrows can also be used to select one, then releasing Ctrl switches to the highlighted tab.
