Keyboard shortcut question

[Bas.degroot1]

I want to change the keyboard shortcut to switch to previous or next tab in current drawing from Ctrl + pageUp/pageDown to Ctrl + (shift) + Tab as I want to be able to change from layout to model and back with just a single hand instead of having to look for the page up/down buttons on my keyboard. How can I do that?

Could not figure out how to configure shortcuts your way because these shortcuts are not in the CUI command.

But i can just give you the variable TILEMODE. It is possible a button to toggle but from 0 to 1 and reverse, you can go to model or space with the keyboard....

1) Ctrl+PageUp/Down assignments cannot be changed.

2) You cannot assign anything To Ctrl(+Shift)+Tab

3) You can create a command (LISP) that does what you want and that could be assigned to plenty of other assignable keyboard shortcuts - Say Ctrl+Alt+A/S? Not simple but doable.

I added a CTRL+T shortcut key to toggle TILEMODE which will toggle between the current layout and the Model tab. Handy if you have a lot of layouts as it remembers which layout to go back to. The shortcut Key macro is: 

^C^C^P(ai_onoff "tilemode") Regen ^P

Name it Tilemode, use "Toggle between Model tab and previous layout." as the Description, and use CTRL+T for the Access Key which is easy to remember for Tilemode and isn't already being used. From version 2017 on there's a right click option on tabs to "Activate Model Tab" or "Activate Previous Layout" and the Model tab is always visible but using Ctrl+T is still much quicker.

This is not a swap but is closer to what you want Goto.lsp as the name implies go to any layout, if you enter 0 you will go to Model. Any other number will take you to corresponding layout tab can do 99 for last. Used with 88 layouts.

You could make say a defun with "0" as name to jump to "Model" just need to edit the code to suit. Remove the dcl part Multi getvals.
