Switching tabs using the keyboard

Post by Quin »

Is it possible for me to switch tabs using just keyboard commands? In a lot of applications, I can use control+tab or control+shift+tab. However, this does not work in X2. I also looked in the customize -> keyboard area and couldn't find it. Is there a way to do this?

Awesome, thank you so much!
Interestingly, if I checked each individual item in the keyboard section carefully I could tell what the commands were, NVDA reads me the name of the command when I tab into the list of shortcuts 8)
