# Description of the new feature/enhancement
If you're in the rightmost pane Alt+Right takes you to the leftmost pane (similarly for the other three). I often want to switch back and forth between two panes.

Research direction
Start by locating the Windows Terminal pane-focus handling for the Alt+Right shortcut and review how focus behaves at the rightmost pane. Check whether related pane-navigation tests exist, then verify that focus wraps from the rightmost pane to the leftmost pane and similarly in the other directions.
