Hi

Is there any shortcut key we can swap between two focused tab?

For example, I have 1,2,3 three tabs, I am now on 1 tab, then opened 3rd tab, I want a shortcut key to swap between 1 and 3, is there any shortcut key for this?

Hello,
Good news. The next major version (2026.2) will have a way to navigate to the toolbar history with back and forward. You might need to reset your quick asset toolbar in Reset Layout (it's not added by default), and you will be able to assign shortcuts.


Regards

PS: This version is planned for June

Hi NeilSmith2025,

Thanks for reaching out!

In Remote Desktop Manager, there isn’t a default “toggle back to the last focused tab” shortcut.
What is available by default:

  • Next tab: Ctrl + Shift + Right
  • Previous tab: Ctrl + Shift + Left
  • These move sequentially through the tab order.


Workarounds that usually cover the same need:

  • Use tab bookmarks:
    • Set bookmark 1..9: Ctrl + Shift + 1..9
    • Go to bookmark 1..9: Ctrl + 1..9
    • This lets you quickly jump between two specific tabs once they're bookmarked.


If you want different key bindings:

  • You can customize shortcuts (and on Windows, create shortcut macros) in:

Please let us know if this answers your question or if you still need anything else.

Best regards,
