Description
Is there a way to implement a shortcut that allows the user to switch between editor and structure view (left side pane)? It would be much more convenient if not always the mouse is needed to navigate through sections and click on them in the structure view (especially when dealing with large documents).
I thought switching between those two could be possible perhaps with using Tab. However, I have not found a way to exit the editor via Tab again. In addition, I do not know how to switch to a specific section in the editor when it is selected/highlighted in the structure view, e.g. with Enter.
Is there perhaps a way to accomplish this with a Macro?
