New description: Stack and Tile currently uses Option+left and Option+right arrows to switch to the left and right tabs in a tab group and Option+Up and Option+Down to switch between next and previous window groups. These shortcuts are already being used by applications so may not be used by S&T. The application that I noticed this on was Eddie, a text editor for BeOS which uses option+left to move back a word and option+right to move forward a word. When I include an Eddie window in a tab group these shortcuts are overridden. Alternatives might include Ctrl+Alt+[left,right,up,down]-arrows or perhaps option+tab for next tab, option+shift+tab for previous tab, option+pgup for previous window group, option+pgdn for next window group provided that those shortcuts are not also used by applications. -- Comment (by jscipione): Fixed description, should have previewed before submitting. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/9431#comment:1> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
