Question

In general, I\'d like to know the keyboard shortcut for navigating to multiple sections like the project structure, editor, console. I\'m using eclipse keymap configuration in p

Answer 1

If you mean the "Run" window (which has a console in it) you can open it/switch to it with Alt + 4. See the screenshot for the two locations this is indicated.

As mentioned by vape, Esc should return you to your most recently used editor. Alternatively, pressing Alt + 4 again seems to return me to the first editor.

Answer 2

Open Preferences and then select Tools -> Terminal. Remove the check box from Override IDE shortcuts, and then you'll be able to focus the Terminal tool window with Alt+ F12 on Mac and hitting ESC will put you back in the editor that you were last in.

This might cause issues if you're trying to run a program in the terminal which needs to receive the ESC key in order to function correctly.

Answer 3

I think ctrl+tab to switch should be enough for most of user but a more time-efficient way is also wanted to some extent.
