Navigation

Fire and Water provide several levels of navigating using cursor keys:

• Cursor navigation within the current file follows the platform conventions, using the plain cursor keys, as well as combinations with ⌥ or ⌘ (Mac) or Ctrl (Windows), as well as Home/End/PageUp and PageDown keys (Fn+Cursor keys, on most Macs).

• Global navigation in the IDE, between different files and other logical views is handled with the cursor keys and ^⌘ (Mac) or Alt (Windows).

• Message navigation between build messages within the current file is handled with the cursor keys and ⌥⌘* (Mac) or Alt+Shift (Windows).

• Search navigation within the current file is handled with the cursor Right/Left keys and ^⌥ (Mac) or Alt+Ctrl (Windows). The Up and Down keys perform "Go to Declaration/Implementation" within Oxygene code files, with the same modifiers.

See Navigation for more details.

Notes

• Several editor shortcuts work on "the selection, or the token at the cursor". If single-line selection is active, the selected text will be used; if no selection is active, the token underneath the current cursor position will be selected and used.
• Commands with ^ (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift (Windows) often perform modifications, such as refactoring, reformatting, etc.
• For Water, our goal is to achieve a good mixture of adhering to Windows keyboard standards while also retaining symmetry with Fire. For example, shortcuts with ⌘ in Fire will usually map to Ctrl in Water; ^ in Fire will map to Ctrl+Shift in Water. Basic cursor movement of course use the standard Windows keybinding and behaviour.
