Previously called "Cycle Through Panes"

In Combination with Mr. Jackphils Jump to Link plugin and Vim Keybindings, this plugin allows you to control Obsidian entirely without a Mouse!

How to use

There are two different groups of commands:

  • Navigate in the order of the tabs from left to right. In contrast to the native Obsidian commands, they ignore panes/tab groups and work per window.
    • "Go to right tab" Typically set to Ctrl + Tab
    • "Go to left tab" Typically set to Ctrl + Shift + Tab
  • Navigate in the order they were last used. These support holding the Ctrl key like in a browser.
    • "Go to previous tab" Typically set to Ctrl + Tab
    • "Go to next tab" Typically set to Ctrl + Shift + Tab

Note that this plugin does not set any default hotkeys, so that you can choose the behavior you prefer.
