Cheers for that - of course my post was unclear - I know about command-`, that was what I was referring to. It breaks as 'cycling thru open docs' if you don't have a separate editor window for every file.

cmd-opt-left/right is gold for me now - thanks to who suggested that.

I stand by my point of a UI convention being broken - there's a 2- level hierarchy in xcode (cmd-` for windows, opt-cmd-left/right for within a window), which I would call non conventional. Now I think about it, I would love to be able to navigate the 2 natural document levels in Xcode (e.g. cmd-` for cycling open projects, something else for cycling windows open in a project e.g. editors etc).

Thanks to all on these whiny threads - I always get lots of great tips for key shortcuts etc...

thanks
Rua HM.

I have to agree strongly & wholeheartedly with the point abould control-tab. This to me breaks a universal and fundamental UI convention.

Control-tab is a Microsoft-ism. It *isn't* a universal convention (nor does the fact that some Microsoft product that you're used to does it mean that Mac OS X necessarily should as well... if Apple pandered to every instance of that argument that's been used, Mac OS X would be just like Windows).


Try Command-` instead (you can see shortcuts like these in the Keyboard Shortcuts tab of the Keyboard & Mouse preference pane).

Kind regards,

Alastair.
