Shortcut for Switching between Data and Text View

Post by solutionyogi » Mon 23 Mar 2015 16:44

Hello,

I am currently evaluating dbForge Studio for SQL Server.

I have been loving it so far.

I love efficiency and keyboard shortcuts. I have turned on the option 'Activate Data Editor after query execution' which is great. However, after running the query and getting the focus on 'Data' view, how do I go back to the text editor? The shortcut for this in SSMS used to be F6. However, this doesn't work.

In Options -> Environment -> Keyboard, I do see that F6 is configured for 'Query.SwitchTabbed' option. But that doesn't work for me.

I am guessing it has something to do with what I have selected in 'Documents' section of option. Though I don't know how to fix it. Can someone please help?

This can be setup as follows:

1. Select 'Tools -> Options' from the main menu. The 'Options' window opens.
2. Navigate to the 'Environment -> Keyboard' branch.
3. Type 'NextDocView' in the 'Show Commands Containing' field.
4. Select the 'Window.NextDocView' command in the list below.
5. Set the focus in the 'Press shortcut keys:' field and press F6.
6. Click the 'Assign' button.
7. Click 'OK'.

By the way, in the next version we'll provide a table to view which a command matches the shortcuts.
