A document list shows the currently open documents in the document pane. This is especially useful if not all the currently open documents in the document pane are visible for access.

 

 

The document list can be displayed in two ways:

 

•Drop-down list

•Pop-up list

 

Drop-down document list

Click on List all open documents button to open drop-down document list, which displays all currently open documents in the document pane.

 

 

Currently active document - On the top of the drop-down list of the documents

Last active document -  Highlighted.

Pinned documents - Marked with symbol .

Documents which can not be seen and are not pinned - Greyed out.

 

 

Pop-up document/window list

Press CTRL+TAB inside the Editor to open the Pop-up document/window list. The list shows currently open documents in all document panes where each document pane gets its column.

Beside the list of currently open documents, the pop-up list also displays the list of all currently open window panes and full path of the currently selected document in the list.

 

 

Most recently used window panes are listed in the first column on the left of the Pop-up.

Currently selected document / window pane is highlighted.

Full path of the currently selected document / Name of the currently selected window pane is on the bottom of the Pop-up.

 

 

Navigating

Navigation to select a document can also be done with the following keys:

•CTRL+TAB - Down.

•CTRL+SHIFT+TAB - Up.

•Arrow keys.

•Page Up/Down, Home/End keys when there are too many documents to be listed at once.

 

 

Selecting

By releasing the TAB button, the list closes and the currently selected document is focused. You can also select a document by clicking on it or hitting ENTER.

 

 

Filtering

While the list is opened, you can enter parts of names and they become highlighted. While navigating through them with keys, only the matching names are selected.
