Messy order when tabbing through tabs

Post by helmut »

In the XnView browser you can navigate through the currently opened tabs using shortcut Ctrl+Tab. When navigating, the order is confusing. And when mouse clicking on a tab, the tabs' tab order is changed again.

If possible, Ctrl+Tab should navigate to the next tab (the tab that is right of the current tab). Once the right most tab is reached, Ctrl+Tab should navigate to the first tab.

I absolutely agreed. The whole 'move to last active tab' behavior is flawed and confusing in my opinion.

E.g. There's a same problem when closing tabs: http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=16774

I've added F8 for that. I can't change the behavior of MDI client with Ctrl+Tab

Ah, o.k.. And Shift+F8 works vice-versa. Nice and probably best what you could do due to MDI client.
