I quite agree.

Ctrl+Tab springs to mind as a good alternative, if the Moz veterans could tell if this can be easily changed and how. Wade. Opera supports this key, BTW, though most Opera users use Opera's own custom keys for flipping through windows (1 and 2).

But yeah, it took me forever to figure out it was ctrl-PgUP/Dn - tried many combinations of keys before I found it. On and on and on and on, and on and on and on goes John.

Besides, Windows itself doesn't consider Ctrl+Tab special; AFAIR, the MDI handling is done almost entirely by the client (or a client library). Wade.

Post #36,553 by Meerkat 4/25/02 11:21:44 PM Reply	Er, that was my point But that point was made on the assumption that Ctrl+Tab was a 'reserved' Windows mechanism for switching between the D's of an MDI. Does Ctrl+Tab have some kind of common use in the X windowing system world? (or any other non-Windows world) If so I guess it'd explain why Moz doesn't use it.

Post #36,576 by static 4/26/02 8:14:19 AM Reply	Oh. Ah. Right. Okay. As regarding MDI in Windows, yeah - to Windows itself, Ctrl+Tab is a reasonably ordinary keystroke. I myself haven't encountered Ctrl+Tab in the X Windows world. Note I'm not trying to be unfair to the Moz developers, but I find it completely in character for the project to have chosen Ctrl+PgUp/Ctrl+PgDn instead of considering Ctrl+Tab. Wade.

Ctrl+Tab springs to mind as a good alternative, if the Moz veterans could tell if this can be easily changed and how.* I'm working on it, I've figured out where the tab key bindings are, and how bindings are supposed to be set. But so far my trying to override them has just messed up Mozilla. My last try set the height of the login window to 0 and reset my EMail configuration. So I know it's reading my changes, but not quite doing what I want. Jay
