Answer 3

Assumption

This solution assumes that you want to leave the terminal and version control tab (or any tab) always open and don't want to close any of them. And you want to jump from terminal to editor using keybaord shortcut.

Solution

1. Assign ⌘ 2 (or any other shortcut) to jump to terminal
2. You have already ⌘ 9 to jump to version control tab
3. Press ⌘ 9 and Esc. This will take you to editor and both the version control tab and terminal will remain open
4. When you want to goto terminal just press ⌘ 2

Webstorm screenshot

You can see my webstorm, I alway open two tabs at bottom. And you can also see the settings of terminal in this screenshot which are used to open it in split mode.

Answer 4

Injellij -> Preference -> Key Map -> search "terminal" -> .

find or change the shortcut there

Answer 5

It might be an option to disable Preferences > Tools > Terminal > Override IDE shortcuts

Esc works after that

Answer 6

On OSX PhpStorm 8, ⌘ 2 twice works. ⌥ + numbers are not likely to be assigned as [default] shortcuts on OSX as they are special characters like ™ (⌥ 2).

For me, only ⌘ 2, ⌘ 6, and ⌘ 9 work with this idea, ⌘ 2 being the least disruptive as @dev suggests.

There is an open ticket about the Terminal focus issue that might be worth following to see if this behaviour improves in the future.
