As a person who would rather use less mouse and more keyboard, I’m constantly on the hunt for keyboard shortcuts. So it is to my delight that there are at least 3<\/em> ways of switching tabs:<\/p>\n

Ctrl+Tab<\/strong> to go forward in the tab bar (wraps around at end), and Ctrl+Shift+Tab<\/strong> to go in reverse, with wrapping around at the end.<\/p>\n

Ctrl+[Number]<\/strong>, to switch to the\u00a0nth<\/sup><\/em> tab from left. Example: See image below. To switch to Facebook, I can type Ctrl+4<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"tabbar\"<\/a>
\nCaveat: This only works with the first 10 tabs. There is no “11” key on the keyboard.<\/p>\n

Ctrl+PageUp<\/strong> does the same as Ctrl+Shift+Tab<\/strong>, and vice versa with Ctrl+PageDown<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

These commands should (theoretically) work with Mac OS by substituting Ctrl<\/strong> with Command<\/strong><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
