Environment is MonoDevelop 3.1.1 / Mac OS X 10.8.2 / Macbook Pro w/North American English keyboard

What keyboard shortcut cycles forward/backward through open documents?

I saw this document which seems to suggest CTRL + PgDn and CTRL + PgUp, however it doesn't work for me (on a laptop as described, so I used CTRL + fn + DownArrow and CTRL + fn + UpArrow).

Thanks!

In Xamarin Studio 4.0 on OSX 10.8.2, the keyboard shortcuts for switching between tabs (representing open documents) are Option + Command + LeftArrow and Option + Command + RightArrow.

Xamarin Studio is based on MonoDevelop, so the keyboard shortcuts might be the same.

  • Interesting... I'm using Xamarin Studio now, although it does seem to be the same in MD too. However, the shortcut you mention is listed as 'Navigate Forward/Backward', and seems to take my backward and forward through my 'navigation history'. I'm not quite sure what 'navigation history' is, but it's more than just tabs - it seems to be navigating me both between tabs (although not necessarily in the order they are open) as well as to locations *within* tabs... – TheNextman Feb 25 '13 at 14:42

As of MonoDevelop 4.0, ctrl + tab allows you to cycle through open tabs/documents (in both Windows and Mac environments).
