improve keyboard accelerators / key bindings / shortcuts [+18]

All in all, a good editor in alpha status. Below is something that I really miss from Eclipse:

• Ctrl-Shift-U: in-file reference search.
• auto search/highlight using the word/item from where the cursor is
• Ctrl-H, Ctrl-Alt-H cross file reference searches
• F4 class hierarchy.

[danrubel]

• F9 for Run/Debug

It will be better to provide hot key to generate javascript while generate JS on launching a Dart app in a non-Dartium browser.
It annoy me to have tab in my browser for each time I test my program.

Generate javascript does have a hot key associated with it - look for it under the Tools menu!

It would be cool if I could do cmd-E and cmd-G to enter text selection in the find window and find next. That's normal for XCode and other mac editors.

Might be nice to have a Chromium button in the editor to bring that to the front. Maybe I didn't see that.

Would be nice to show the file that I'm viewing in the file browser so I can see where it's located on disk.

In Dart Editor, we can use Ctl+Space to bring up the auto-complete suggestions.Could it be possible for the user to define the hot key to bring up the auto-complete suggestions.In Taiwan ,we often use the Ctl+space to change the language(Chinese/English) input.

Please add Ctrl-Shift-R to quickly open a file like in Eclipse. miss this one a lot. The searchbox doesn't do the same thing.

I can quickly type Ctrl-Shift-R MyF hit Return and it will load MyFile.dart (blind) vs goto searchbox type MyF hit down arrow several times until you are over MyFile.dart and hit return.

(Combined a few related feedback messages into a single issue.)

---

Cmd-{ and Cmd-} does not switch between open tabs (as a Chrome and Safari user would expect).

Instead it implements the weird and unusable Eclipse behavior of go back and forth.

---

Cmd-Left does not jump to the beginning of the line. I have to hit it twice to jump there.

---

When I hit the End key, the Editor jumps to the end of the file. This is not consistent with behavior in other Mac Applications and not consistent with Eclipse behavior on the Mac.

Also, I cannot find a shortcut to jump back to where I came from.

Keyboard shortcut to cycle through windows in the Dart Editor.. CTRL+TAB is common for this.

On Mac, Cmd-N is required (by platform guidelines) to be equivalent to File>New File. Similar requirements exist for linux and windows. The shortcut used to work but was removed when the Files view was adopted. Cmd-Shit-N to create a new application is also missing.

Command+N keyboard shortcut to switch editor tabs

Reported by [email protected], Mar 15, 2012
Hi,
In Chrome I can switch tabs with the Command+N keyboard shortcut. I would like to be able to switch between editor tabs using the same keyboard shortcuts.
John

For clarity, this request is for Cmd-1 through Cmd-0 to switch tabs. Cmd-N is reserved for New File. It is currently missing in Dart Editor due to recent breakage (it was present earlier this year).

Comment by [email protected], Mar 16, 2012
Yes, N is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0.

I'm missing (or not finding) shortcuts to:

• switch from one editor-view to another.
• go to the next problem or search-result.

Comment by project member [email protected], Feb 8, 2012
Florian always has two or three editors open side-by-side. A keyboard shortcut to cycle through the open, visible editors would help him a lot. Or two keys, one to move right, one to move left. A related issue is with navigation. Using hyperlinks is nice but it messes up his layout. He'd like to be able to open a definition in another visible editor stack, preserving his current visual context.
