[Pharo-project] Cycling Through Open Windows Using Key Combination
Hi, Is there a key combination to cycle through open windows ? I am using Apple-Tab a lot to cycle between open applications on my Mac, and Apple-~ to cycle between open windows in one application. I would love to be able to do something similar inside Pharo. 9 changes out of 10 somebody already did this, maybe it is even in the image. Thx, Sven -- Sven Van Caekenberghe http://stfx.eu Smalltalk is the Red Pill
I did a little hack to get that with CTRL+W. will need to dig out the hack code and can send it over.. On Thu, Apr 4, 2013 at 3:45 PM, Sven Van Caekenberghe <sven@stfx.eu> wrote:

OK, but doesn't that key combination close a window ? Anyway, looking forward to it.

Yes, CTRL-W is close window or close tab in a multidocument window in MS Windows. Regards, ps: Yes, I said windows lots of times. :) Esteban A. Maringolo 2013/4/4 Sven Van Caekenberghe <sven@stfx.eu>

Yes, you once told me that already if I remember correctly. But it acts weird (does not always come up, unpredictable timeout, no next-next-next, slow). Actually, the action 'Make next-to-topmost' from the WIndow menu is more or less what I want: cycle *quickly* between my main windows, usually 2.

Yes, I want to kill this with a huge sledge hammer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g93mz_eZ5N4) to make it usable :) ( I was forced to wait to 2.0 release ^^ ) Ben On Apr 4, 2013, at 8:43 PM, Sven Van Caekenberghe <sven@stfx.eu> wrote:

It was CTRL + tab in the Pharo 1.4 This hack was to override Morph>>tabKey: event in that execute a new method block [ World tabOpenWindows: event ]. PasteUpMorph>> *tabOpenWindows: aKeyboardEvent* * * *| currentFocus index |* * * *currentFocus := aKeyboardEvent hand keyboardFocus.* *SystemWindow noteTopeWindowIn: self.* *System topWindow sendToBack.* this did work well in 1.4 but in 2.0 there is an override to key handling with KMDispatcher >> dispatchKeystroke: aKeyEvent that not so clearly ends up handling CTRL+tab Need to check and revert if that hack can be plugged on to 2.0 trivially.
