How do you cycle through multiple cursors in Sublime Text like you would with placeholders?

Question

Is there a way to tab through multiple cursors like you can with placeholders?

Having those cursors placed you would:

1. type "index"
2. tab
3. type "products"
4. tab
5. …

Answer 1

You could create bookmarks with the multiple cursors (ctrl+f2 or cmd+f2 by default I think). Then, you could return to a single cursor (escape). After you enter the content on a particular line, you could then move to the next bookmark (f2 by default). Of course, those are with the default keybindings. You can always rebind them to something more comfortable than f2.

Answer 2

There is a plugin for that and more. https://packagecontrol.io/packages/MultiEditUtils

You can add this line to your User Keybindings for custom hotkey:

{ "keys": ["alt+d"], "command": "selection_fields" },
