Can't go to next/previous edit point in Brackets with Emmet


Support for Emmet's next and previous edit point seems to be missing or what? Every time I press CTRL+ALT+--> my screen rotates. This is happening on windows only.

EDIT: You can disable the default keyboard shortcuts in control panel but in that case any application won't be able to use those too, nor is there a way remap the keys in Brackets easily!


Solution

  • All available keybindings are defined in keymap.json.

    source: https://github.com/emmetio/brackets-emmet

    To open this keymap file, first open Brackets, then go to Help > Show Extensions Folder. Open the user folder, then modify keymap.json to however you prefer your shortcuts. Reload Brackets Editor when finished.

    My keymap was located in
    C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Brackets\extensions\user\brackets-emmet

    You will need to change these two lines:

    "next_edit_point": "Ctrl-Alt-Right",
    "prev_edit_point": "Ctrl-Alt-Left",
