What are the commands or keyboard shortcuts to navigate between the document pane and the Drives/Workspace/Classes/Files/Functions panes?

These functions will navigate the current document windows:

• WindowNext - Move to next window
• WindowPrevious - Move to previous window

These functions will move the focus point:

• ActivateDocument - Activate the current document window
• ActivateNavigator - Activate the navigator panel
• ActivateSearchCombo - Activate the tool search bar combo box

These functions move (ie re-order) the windows within the document tab bar:

• WindowTabMoveNext - Move the current window to the next file tab location.
• WindowTabMovePrevious - Move the current window to the previous file tab location.

Currently there is no way to move between the panes of the navigator panel, but this functionality will be added in the next release.

ActivateNavigator works, although it would be nice to also have commands to activate each specific pane. It would also be useful if Esc returned focus from the navigator pane to the document pane (ala VS.NET). I would suggest Ctrl+PageUp/Down as defaults for the commands to change tabs within the navigator pane.

Also, is undocking of the navigator pane supposed to work? When I undock, it sizes very narrow horizontally (not useable) and cannot be made wider. I'm running on Windows XP SP2.

Keyboard commands to do this will be in the next release.

This should have been possible with the current verison, by just binding ESC to ActivateDocument function. But I tested this and the ESC just beeps. So I tried binding Ctrl + 1 to the ActivateDocument and this combination had no trouble passing the focus back to the document. So it appears the Windows tree control is eating the ESC key

I will have to see if there is anything that can be done to fix this

I will make sure these keys combinations are tested to ensure they work with the new functions. But since these key combinations are currently bound to find next/previous functions and have been that way for quite some time, I would be reluctant have them re-bound to some other functionality. At this stage I plan to leave the new functions unbound, available for anyone to be bound to a any key combination they prefer.

I had not trouble docking, undocking and resizing the navigator. I ran this test on Windows NT, Me and XP with no problems what so every.

In testing the context menu bug report I noticed that the intial size of the navigator is very small (nearly zero). At first when I tried to resize the navigation I could only make it taller which gave me the long narrow navigator much like you described.

But after further investigation I found when the navigator is this narrow the right hand sizer does not activate but the left hand sizer does. So you should be able to re-size the navigator from the lfet side

Also once the navigator is size you will not need to do this again as it will remember it's last undocked size.

That is indeed the difference. I never would have thought to try sizing from the left.

Also, pressing Enter in a tree in the navigator pane to activate/open a document or function beeps (it does also activate/open but should not beep, like double-clicking).

The beep on enter key is definitely a bug

Also the navigator sizing problem will be fixed by making sure the navigator always undocks to a reasonable size.

Both these bugs should be fixed in the next release
