When using eclipse, I often use the find/replace tool without touching the mouse. I'll press Ctrl+F, type the text I want to find, press tab, type the replacement text, then press Shift+Tab 3 times, to bring focus to the "replace all" button, then I press Space to perform the action and ESC to close the window.
Today, I tried this and tab will only switch between the "find" text box and the "replace with" text box, meaning I have to go to my mouse to perform the "replace all" action, which takes forever (comparatively). I have had this problem before, and thought I recalled a key binding that changes the focus traversal policy for eclipse, but I cant seem to find it now. Googling has turned up nothing, but I don’t think I am searching for the right terms. I don’t think this is OS related, but I am on a Mac.
Thanks in advance!
I finally found this. It was OS related- Mac has a setting to allow tab navigation through buttons. System Preferences-> keyboard, at the bottom select "all controls"
