Steps to reproduce
- Open at least 2 tabs in the central area
- Press ⌘+2 (tab shortcut), then ⌘+1 to switch between the 2 open tabs
- Click on the file explorer icon in the left sidebar
- Press ⌘+2, then ⌘+1 : the interface is showing the search panel then the file explorer panel instead of switching between the 2 open tabs
Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]
Y
Expected result
The tabs shortcuts should switch between the open file tabs in the central area only
Actual result
The tab shortcuts (⌘ + number on macOS) works differently when you focus on a sidebar beforehand (for example the file explorer). The shortcuts then navigate through the sidebar panels (probably treated as tabs) instead of the open file tabs.
One needs to focus again in the central content area to be able to navigate through the tabs with the shortcuts.
