Hi, I've just been trying out Code::Blocks as an IDE recently, and there's a little thing about the editor really annoying me I'd like to change. I can't find the setting for it, though, if there is one.
When you press CTRL+TAB in the editor, it brings up a little window showing the list of tabs and lets you choose one from there. Notepad++ refers to it as a 'document switcher', I'm not sure what the accepted terminology is here. I'd like to turn it off - I'd prefer it if CTRL+TAB just went to the next tab, the same way CTRL+SHIFT+TAB just goes back a tab and doesn't bring up the switcher (unless it's already up). Although I'm not sure the inconsistency of CTRL+TAB and CTRL+SHIFT+TAB is a good idea, UI-wise.
Is there a setting for that? The only one I've been able to find is the MRU tab-switch order, which I definitely don't want.

Have you tried Settings -> Environment settings -> Notebook appearance -> Use stack based tab switching or disabling it?
-
That's the MRU-tab-order setting I referred to above - the tab-switcher window still appears.
-
Hm, then what happens if you remove the short cut for View -> Switch tabs?

That does the trick. Thank you.
