How can I change the debugger key bindings to the ones that I used to have in the Classic CodeWarrior IDE?

The corresponding default binding for this functionality is Ctrl+F6. You can reassign this feature to Ctrl+Tab by doing the following steps:

  1. From the IDE menu bar, select Window > Preferences.

    The Preferences dialog box appears.

  2. Select General > Keys.

    Under the Command column is a list of available commands. The Binding column contains the keys that can be used to invoke the command. The When column indicates when this command will be executed.

  3. Click on the Command column to get the key sequence in alphabetical order.

    For the debugger, the keys to change are Step Into, Step Over and Step Return.

    By default, these key bindings are set to F5, F6 and F7 respectively. In order to change the key sequence for Step Over from F6 to F10, follow these steps:

    1. Select Step Over in the Command column.
    2. From the Binding textbox, remove F6 by deleting it from the binding text box.
    3. Press F10 on computer keyboard so that F10 will be inserted into Binding textbox.

      The user change symbol, which is a blue triangle, will appear in the right-most column to indicate a user binding.

    4. Click Apply.

      The Binding for Step Over appear as F10. When you use debugger, press the F10key for a Step Over. In the context menu that appears on the Debugger window, you see Step Over F10.

  4. Click OK.

    The Preferences dialog box closes.

The default key bindings changes, as specified.
