Keyboard shortcut for switching tabs in a pane

When I have focus on my Debug panel:

enter image description here

I would like to use the keyboard to switch to the "Console" tab, visible right next to the currently selected "Debugger" tab.

There are several Keymap settings that refer to switching Editor tabs, but this is not a code editor window, it is an IntelliJ specific pane. How can I specify a keyboard shortcut for navigating tabs in an IntelliJ pane?

Is there a keyboard shortcut for switching tabs?

The keyboard shortcut Cmd + Shift + A (Mac) or Alt + Shift + A (Windows) is the easiest way to switch between tabs in Chrome. This shortcut pulls up a sidebar of your recent tabs.

How do you shift through tabs quickly?

If you have multiple documents open you can cycle through tabs by pressing Ctrl (Mac: Command) Tab. To go in reverse press Shift Ctrl (Mac: Command) Tab.

How do you quickly change tabs in Windows?

In almost any application that offers built-in tabs, you can use Ctrl+Tab to switch between tabs, just as you'd use Alt+Tab to switch between windows. Hold down the Ctrl key, and then tap Tab repeatedly to switch to the tab to the right. You can even switch tabs in reverse (right to left) by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Tab.

Right-clicking the tabs gives the menu: enter image description here

(on Mac):

Next tab: Ctrlright

Prev tab: Ctrlleft


Note that on Mac these keystrokes are automatically configured to switch Spaces. You need to go into Keyboard settings to turn it off

alt+right to move right a tab.

alt+left to move left a tab.

You will need to have the correct panel of tabs in the current context for effect. To get to these you can use the shortcuts which are the form alt+NUM.

alt+5 for instance would jump you to the debug panel.
