Hi peeps
New mac user found Adium to be the best client on the go so great work.
Something insanely frustrating is not being able to CTRL+(SHIFT+)TAB between chat tabs.
http://trac.adium.im/ticket/15221
This trac thing confuses me a little, it says it was added then removed because someone said they didn't like it? Is there a way to enable it manually as it's not in the tab switching method list.
Many thanks
Craig
Tabbing between chat tabs
Re: Tabbing between chat tabs
Hi Craig,
I can understand how it's confusing.
The gist of it is:
in the first changes, while your preferred combination (Ctrl(+Shift)+Tab) was added others were removed. Some folks weren't happy about that so these changes were reverted. Later, Ctrl(+Shift)+Tab was added again.
All of this happened in the 1.5 development line. The "Adium 1.5" milestone in the ticket indicates that it is targeted for the 1.5 release. This means you will not find this option in the current release which is 1.4.3. However, you can try a so-called "nightly" of 1.5: http://nightly.adium.im/ (at your own risk!).

Hi Robby
Thanks for your reply..sorry I msised it. Stupidly signed up with an old email address. Sorted that now though!
I guess I'm a little confused why offering it as an option would annoy some people when they'd just have the choice to use what they're used to or change to the ctrl+tab. Either way I'll try (at my own risk ;] ) your link to see how it goes.
Many thaks!

So, it wasn't an option at that point in time.Robby wrote:<snip>

Well, I can tell you this is the only version I have been using regularly for a long time now but you never know...CraigMcArthur wrote:Either way I'll try (at my own risk ;] ) your link to see how it goes.
