O.P. Tabbed Chats Question
Ive done a search on the topic, but Ive not been able to find it.

With "Enable group keyboard shortcuts", what does this do, and what are the shortcuts to use them?

Thanks

Andy

From Changelog:
Shortcut keyboard F9 groups all chats and Ctrl+F9 adds the current chat to the group. Shortcut keyboard F8 ungroups all chats and Ctrl+F8 ungroups the current chat from the group.

Edit: you're welcome :D

Ctrl + Tab goes from left to right

Ctrl + Shift + Tab  goes from right to left :)

You'll find this is similiar in many other programs that use tabs (eg. Firefox)

I use Opera :)

Just "1" and "2" for me! haha

Is there some easy way to change these shortcuts?

Say, make them CTRL + [Arrow Key Left] etc?

Opera also uses <Ctrl>+(<Shift>)+<Tab> for tab navigation (iirc).

No, not possible...

From the official changelog

You can browse your tabbed chats with two sets of keys: Ctrl+PageUp / Ctrl+PageDown and Ctrl+Tab / Ctrl+Shift+Tab. The later can be disabled with the AllowGroupCtrlTab registry setting if you want to keep Ctrl+Tab to insert tab characters in your messages.

Note: CTRL + [Arrow Key Left/Right] is a standard shortcut key used to jump to the previous or next word. It is not wise at all to override standard Windows behaviour of such shortcut keys (It will teach you very bad habbits ;)).
