Hi,

I am wondering if there is any way to have a keyboard shortcut to a tab. Like for example Firefox having Alt+1 / Alt+2 / Alt+3 to go to tab 1 / 2/ 3 etc...

Cheers,

You can use F12 to go to the current editor and Ctrl + E to get a list of open editors. Then you can type a couple of characters to narrow down the list. The currently visible tabs are at the end of the list (use End or Up to jump there)

Ctrl + PageUp and Ctrl + PageDown select the previous and the next tab.

Ctrl + Q goes to the last edit position.

Alt + Left and Alt + Right go back- and forward through your editing history (like the back button in your browser).

Hi Aaron, appreciate you are taking the time to write this down but I am more looking for how specifically go to a numbered table....

I''m not sure this would make sense in the Eclipse UI since the order of the tabs changes all the time. If you need this feature, you probably have to file a bug report along with the request to add the number to the tab's title.
