Switching between open windows doesn't work anymore in ST4

#1

Before updating to ST4 it was possible to use the common shortcut CMD + < to switch between open windows (Mac OSX 11.3.1) which is not working anymore. Does anyone else experience the same?

Thanks in advance for any hints!

I don’t recall any reports that this isn’t working for people in the general case. I don’t know for sure but I would guess that since it’s a MacOS feature that windows can stack within a single window that the key binding would be an OS level key binding.

If you open the Sublime console with View > Show Console and do sublime.log_input() and sublime.log_commands(), you can try pressing the keys to see if Sublime is seeing the keys the way you expect and if it’s trying to do something in response.

Thanks for your response! It’s showing:

key evt: super+<

and nothing else. You are right, there is a OS setting
Keyboard > Shortcuts > Set focus to next window: ⌘<
which works in all other applications. And as I said it worked for ST3, too. Any ideas how to fix that?

Damn, forget about it. After reading again and taking a look into ST4 again, I see all previously separate windows have been moved into tabs. I was updating ST and OS in the same time and yes, I definitly need new glasses :man_facepalming:
