2. Navigating through many documents

Navigating through a large list of documents can be difficult. But if you right-click the document notebook tabs, you get a list of all opened documents.

Navigation between documents can also be done using the Go menu, or its shortcuts.

Bluefish Go Menu

The shortcuts are the following:

  • Ctrl+Page-Up will change to the previous document
  • Ctrl+Page-Down will change to the next document
  • Shift+Ctrl+Page-Up will change to the first document
  • Shift+Ctrl+Page-Down will change to the last document

The Go → Goto Line (Ctrl+L) offers an interesting feature.

If there is some number in the document, you may select it, then click the From selection label in the Goto line dialog. Bluefish will fill in the Line number field with that number and go directly to it. The same feature is available from the Go → Goto Selection.
