Good morning,
I am replying with the hope that it moves this to the top of your queue. This is a critical feature that many have requested. I'd appreciate a reply indicating whether there is a plan to implement this functionality.
Thank you and best regards,

Hi there,
I'm on version 10.0.60, Standard Edition
To take a simple example, in the text editor, let's say I have a table like:
SELECT
up.id,
up.user_type_id,
up.email,
up.hashed_password,
up.name_first,
up.name_last,
up.last_login,
up.is_active,
up.username,
up.photo_id,
up.upi
FROM user_profile upLet's say I want to change the table alias from up to up2
In vscode or sublime text, I can highlight the first "up.", press and hold control+d until all are selected (with multiple cursors), and then I can edit them all at the same time. This is much faster and easier than find/replace.Also, I see some native support for multiple cursors already exists. For example, if I place the cursor in the second line between the up and the . and press shift+alt+down repeatedly, I will get multiple cursors and can change the alias. However, let's say I want to then press ctrl+shift+right to select all the column names to the right and copy those. This doesn't work. Or say I want discontinuous multiple cursors - like I want to select every "inner join" and change them all to "left join", but they are on different lines. Again, there is no way to do this.
This is a time saving feature which offers a significant convenience that most developers are used to in editors like Sublime Text and Visual Studio Code. It would be very beneficial to have these features in dbForge as well. I have only given a few small examples of this functionality and its use cases. I highly recommend experimenting and familiarizing with these features in other tools (as mentioned), and bringing this functionality over to dbForge.
Best regards

Hello!
FINALLY I was able to get this working after updating, as follows:
On version 10.0.60
1) Tools > Options > Environment > Keyboard > Select the Oracle Sql Developer keyboard mapping scheme.
2) The commands in question are: Window.NextTab and Window.PreviousTab
If you want to set them to ctrl+Tab and ctrl+shift+tab respectively, due to an issue, you cannot do so in this window: when you click in the box "Press shortcut keys" and press either one of these combinations, it just goes to the next tab in the options window. You can get around this as follows:
In file explorer (Windows 11), go to:%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Devart\dbForge Studio for MySQL\ShortcutSchemes
3) Open OracleSqlDeveloper.xml in a text editor
4) Find the relevant commands and define as follows:<Shortcut Name="NextTab" Group="Standard" FirstKey="Control+Tab" />
<Shortcut Name="PreviousTab" Group="Standard" FirstKey="Control+Shift+Tab" />5) save and exit
6) restart dbForge Studio for MySQLVoila. NOW it works.
Also note that, conveniently, the native behavior of control+tab and control+shift+tab automatically switches to control+pageup and control+pagedown after making this change.

Good morning!
It does not work according to my suggestion. Allow me to clarify.
If you open any web browser, when you repeatedly press ctrl+tab, you are navigated SEQUENTIALLY from left to right through your open tabs. This is not the case in dbForge Studio for MySQL. Instead, it jumps you all over the place in the order of your _last viewed_ tabs. This is extremely annoying. Please allow an option in the key bindings to navigate sequentially from left to right, or right to left, through the open tabs / windows. Oracle SQL Developer and SSMS both allow this.Matthew McIntyre

Hi there! Any updates on this? There have been some great improvements over the last few months -- does this have a place on the timeline yet?
