PyCharm switch between windows with split screen

Question

In PyCharm, what is the keyboard shortcut (or menu command so I can define my own shortcut) to switch between windows in split screen?

To rephrase, when I can see two files on the screen, one in the left pane and the other in the right, how do I move the cursor from the left pane to the right pane without using the mouse?

In emacs, this would be "c-x o", but PyCharm interprets that as switching between tabs.

you can switch by using this window to other splited windows of pycharm.

Answer 2

PyCharm 2018.1 (MacOS Highe Sierra)

Option + Tab

Answer 3

This option is called Goto Next Splitter in Pycharm. In version 2018.3 (MacOS Mojave) the shortcut is Option + Tab, but you can edit it easily:

Preferences (cmd + ,) -> Keymap -> Goto Next Splitter.

Answer 4

In Linux it can be achieved through the main menu:

Window -> Editor Tabs -> Goto Next Splitter

Unfortunately, there is no predefined shortcut for this operation. However, you can create your custom shortcut easy:

Settings -> Keymap

Answer 5

For those familiar with vim there is the IdeaVim extension for pycharm

and you can use vim key mapping:

for splitting a window:

ctrl + w + n     # horizontally
ctrl + w + v     # verically

for switching between splitted windows:

ctrl + w + [arrow]
ctrl-w + w
ctrl-w + W

switching by a number:

[number] + ctrl-w + w
