Description buggyman 2012-05-07 09:05:03 UTC 
On Windows, virtually every tabbed application allows the following shortcuts:
|   Ctrl-Tab = Ctrl-PageDown (= next tab)
|   Ctrl-Shift-Tab = Ctrl-PageUp (= previous tab)

GIMP should implement this convention otherwise people who do not know the PageDown/PageUp shortcut might think there is no keyboard shortcut to switch tabs. It's also very handy because it lets you keep your right hand on the mouse and your left hand on the left side of the keyboard.

This would be a platform specific key binding on the GtkNotebook widget
which GIMP uses to implement the docks. Reassigning.

We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are closing bugs that haven't seen activity in more than 5 years. If this issue is still imporant to you and
still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please consider creating a gitlab issue
for it.
