To navigate from the current tab to the next or previous tab, do one of the following

This approach allows jumping from one tab to another as your editing session requires. While you move between the editor tabs, RubyMine remembers the caret position within each opened file.

To go back and forth through the history of visited tabs, do one of the following
  • On the main toolbar, click arrowBack.png or arrowForward.png.
  • On the main menu, choose Navigate | Back / Forward.
  • Press Ctrl+Alt+Left or Button4 ClickAlt+Shift+Left or Button4 ClickCtrl+Alt+Left or Button4 ClickCtrl+Alt+Left or Button4 ClickCtrl+Alt+Left or Button4 ClickCtrl+Alt+Left or Button4 ClickAlt+Left or Button4 ClickAlt+Left or Button4 ClickMeta+Alt+Left or Button4 ClickMeta Alt Left or Button4 ClickMeta Alt Left or Button4 ClickMeta Open Bracket or Button4 ClickMeta Open Bracket or Meta Alt Left or Ctrl+Alt+Right or Button5 ClickAlt+Shift+Right or Button5 ClickCtrl+Alt+Right or Button5 ClickCtrl+Alt+Right or Button5 ClickCtrl+Alt+Right or Button5 ClickCtrl+Alt+Right or Button5 ClickAlt+Right or Button5 ClickAlt+Right or Button5 ClickMeta+Alt+Right or Button5 ClickMeta Alt Right or Button5 ClickMeta Alt Right or Button5 ClickMeta Close Bracket or Button5 ClickMeta Close Bracket or Meta Alt Right.

This approach enables you to move back and forth through the history of your navigation, same way as it is done in a Web browser. As you move from file to file during your editing session, RubyMine keeps track of the visited locations and enables you to go back, using the Navigate | Back / Forward commands.

Note

On a Mac OS X computer, you can also use the three-finger right-to-left and left-to-right swipe gestures.
