Cannot rotate through open windows using Command + ~ using OSX High Sierra and 1.8.4

[oldmanegan]

Tried latest hourly build (9/28), no luck.
Previously, in 1.8.3 and prior, and with all versions of OSX including High Sierra, one was able to rotate through all open windows using Command + ~ (including using the shift key to rotate in the 'opposite' order). As of 1.8.4 it only rotates through last two opened windows.
This is fine when one open window is the Monitor, thus ensuring the monitor window and its associated sketch are only rotated through, avoiding possible erroneous changes to other sketches. However, when monitor is not open, it only rotates through last two opened files. Is this a bug or an "improvement?" I suggest keeping the new functionality/logic when monitor open, but going back to previous functionality when monitor not open.

Hi @oldmanegan , it looks like a bug but I'm unable to reproduce it (neither on high sierra).
Which keyboard layout are you using? On English OSX, the keyboard shortcut to move between tabs is alt + cmd + left or right arrow and it still works correctly on all IDE versions I tested.

@oldmanegan we're still waiting to hear back from you regarding which keyboard layout you're using.

Had the same issue yesterday: could not cycle through all the open editor windows .. it is what prompted me to implement a Window menu to be able access all the open editors

I just noticed that @oldmanegan was talking about rotating through open windows but @facchinm was talking about moving between tabs.

yup ... dunno when it appeared as a osx behavior.. just saw it yesterday

@oldmanegan it seems the window cycling is the responsibility of the OS

I just checked other osx apps. The apps usually present a list of open windows, as well as a way to cycle through tabs. If memory serves, Sierra (or was it HighS) added the system ability to collapse all instances into tabs automagically. Have not played with it, but the 'tab' actions from pages & keynotes could be related to that OS feature.

The is what Pages & Keynotes offer

This is what Chrome has implemented (no key based cycling):

Has this still not happened?

I used to have this issue as well (I am on macOS 10.14 Mojave, was running version 1.8.9 of the IDE), but updating to IDE version 1.8.12 fixed the issue. If no one else can replicate this, it can probably be marked as resolved.
