Configurable shortcut, Especially for Tab Switcher

dmmc

[Question]
I use Tab Switcher a lot, it's the shortcut key I use most frequently.
BUT: The Ctrl key on the MacBook Pro is really hard to press—it's not as convenient as the Command key.

[Solution]
If it's possible to enable customizable shortcut keys, especially for the Tab Switcher.
PS: I prefer using Command+3, which is also the shortcut I set up for Tab Switcher in the Arc browser.

[One More Thing]
Is it possible to make all shortcuts configurable? like Vivaldi/Arc etc. Like previous tab, next tab...

Hey @dmmc !
You should be able to achieve the exact same behavior on Orion 🙂
The menu actions you will want to use are Window → Show Next/Previous Tab

Since Orion is a native macOS app, you can configure the keyboard shortcuts for these actions in macOS System settings → Keyboard → Keyboard Shortcuts… → App Shortcuts → Click the + → Select Orion (or leave it set to All Applications) → Type the menu title, e.g., Show Next Tab and add the desired shortcut, e.g., ⌘3. After saving, you should be able to cycle through your tabs by pressing ⌘3 — as is the case on Arc.

Please let me know if this matches the behavior you want.

Pretty much everything should already be configurable using the same steps as above. If there is something missing, please let me know!

thanks for your quick response!
I think the previous/next tab can be configured in macOS system.
BUT can the shortcut for Tab Switcher in Orion be configured in macOS?

To clarify, on your setup, does pressing ⌘3 on Arc still open that tab switcher view instead of jumping directly into the next tab?
I had a look and to my knowledge it isn't currently possible to reconfigure the ^+Tab shortcut for the tab switcher. However, as a workaround, may I suggest giving View → Show Tab Overview a try?

Thanks for the report, hopefully making the tab switcher shortcut configurable isn't too big of a task.

laiz yes, as I mentioned first, I set command+3 for tab switcher in Arc, it opens tab switcher view, just like press ctrl+tab in Orion.
thanks for taking this into consideration.
