Atom keyboard shortcut to change window focus not working - keyboard-shortcuts

I have the following keymap.cson file to config my Atom editor:
'body':
'ctrl-shift-cmd-left': 'window:focus-pane-on-left'
Only when I run this command, the current text is selected. Which without the alt key held, would make sense as a highlighting command.
However, is I bind a key command which I think most likely doesn't have a competing action, say alt-cmd-;, it seems to be registered into the list of key commands in Settings/Keybindings, yet again no window focus is happening.
Edit:
I now realize that pane and not window may be the relevant term for what I want. Still, searching the Key Bindings for pane focus switching didn't yield anything obvious. Surely, there must be a simple way to select through files in the Project area while editing.

Although this answer doesn't match the title of the question, based on your edit I think that tree-view:toggle-focus is what you're looking for.

Please try using Ctrl + 0.
And, if you use Nuclide (related to React), please try disabling it to check the difference.

Vscode "next search result" shortcut does not work

When I use the shortcut associated with "search.action.focusNextSearchResult" in vscode while searching something nothing happens.
This action is initially associated with F4 which is also used for other shortcuts. I thought it may be the problem so I reassigned it to an unused shortcut but it did not help.
I am using the extension "Emacs Friendly Keymap" (don't know if it can cause the problem).
Do you know how I could make it work?
That shortcut, used to go to the next search result, only works in a search editor. It has these context keys:
hasSearchResult || inSearchEditor
Are you using it in a separate search editor? It does work there. Here is one way to open a Search Editor:
If you are using the Find widget then use either of these:
Enter when focus is still in the Find widget or F3 when focus is in the editor.
If you are doing a search across files, then just a downarrow will go to the next result.

How do I jump to matching brace in VS 2019?

As best as I can tell, Visual Studio 2019 completely removed the ability to jump to matching brace.
I tried the hotkey I've been using for years (Ctrl-]) and it changes indent instead (why would I need that? This is C#, not Python). I also tried looking up the KeyMap (Environment->Keyboard) setting and searching for match, and there was nothing relevant. As far as I can tell, Microsoft has completely removed this feature, but I wanted to confirm that Fattie and I are not the only ones with this problem.
(for reference, here is the question for VS 2008 whose answer no longer works because the default keyboard shortcut has changed.)
EDIT: The setting still exists, but has been renamed to not contain the all-important keyword "match". See accepted answer.
The control is still there.
Go to Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard and lookup Edit.GotoBrace to see the current key combination for this feature:
You can set the key combination from the pictured menu.
just for the ones among us with non-us keyboard. On my keyboard, I need to press 'AltGr' to access "]". Therefore Ctrl+] doesn't work. Interestingly, VS has already compensated for that problem and changed the hotkey to Ctrl+`, which works nicely for me. You just need to know the hotkey has changed (depending on your keyboard).
Hope this saved a few minutes of your time ;)

Eleusius.
On a Finnish/Swedish keyboard the Edit.GotoBrace field is mapped to Ctrl+Å

Atom: Imitate 'Shift-Enter' keybinding of IntelliJ

In IntelliJ IDEA, one of the more helpful commands I've found is 'Shift-Enter' - it effectively moves the cursor to the end of the line, and starts a new line, thus not affecting the text on the current line.
I'd like to re-create this in Atom, but I can't seem to figure out how one would go about doing so. It doesn't look like you can have multiple editor actions for a given key combination, and I'm not sure if I simply can't find the esoteric editor command I'm looking for.
How can I recreate the behavior of shift-enter in IntelliJ for Atom?
As it so happens, I stumbled across the shortcut: You can use cmd-enter to do the same action. I'm not sure what the underlying command is, but I hope this is helpful to other people!
You can recreate this behaviour by adding this to your keymap:
'atom-workspace atom-text-editor:not([mini])':
'shift-enter': 'editor:newline-below'
Detailed answer;
Freshly open atom editor
Open Keymap option
Copy this and paste this;
'atom-workspace atom-text-editor:not([mini])':
'shift-enter': 'editor:newline-below'
Click save and close the file
Press Shift and enter, Now you'll be able to form a new line below the line you currently in are regardless of the place you are typing in.

TextMate map key for next complete to command + spacebar

I found a lot of tutorials and forum questions around remapping key bindings in Textmate and for the most part I know what needs to be done as far as copy the KeyBindings file and then make the changes needed. More on what I am talking about here http://blog.macromates.com/2005/key-bindings-for-switchers/
I am interested in re-mapping the esc key for nextComplete to control + spacebar. The problem is I am having a hard time finding what the code is for the spacebar or if this is even supported.
I mainly do actionscript development in eclipes and code hinting dialogue is triggered by this key combo and I would like to have the same in Textmate. Hitting the esc key kind of sux. I thought I would get used to it but the fact is that it just kills the flow of typing the rest of your code.
I could use some help figuring out what he code is for the space bar. I know control key is the ^ symbol. I tested this by changing the keybinding to ^s and it remapped just fine.
I think this one can be done with the OS X gui:
System Preferences, Keyboard, Click Keyboard Shortcuts Tab
Click the little Plus, and choose Application: Textmate.app, Menu Title: Next Completion, Type Command Space (or Control Space) and click Add and that should work. You might want to remove conflicting shortcuts - possibly spotlight?
For future reference, I used Key Codes to find the key for space is: \UF20

How to use multiple tabs when tagging to a function in Vim

I use ctags with my Vim and I rely heavily on C-] and C-T to tag back and froth between various functions in my project.
But if the function is in a different file, I'd like Vim to automatically open it in a new tab instead of the current tab. If I pop my tag stack using the C-T, I'd like it go back to the original tab where I pressed by C-] instead of changing the file in the current tab. I don't like to have the same file opened in multiple tabs in Vim. This is the normal behavior for most IDEs and I am wondering if there is a way to do this in Vim?
nmap <C-Enter> <C-w><C-]><C-w>T
Does this help ? You could probably figure out something similar for the way back.
Well, we need to decide what would be the wanted behaviour. We can go back to the original tab (not sure how, still investigating) but then the above given mapping is gonna open a new tab next time. So you'll end up with a lot of tabs after a while.
Or we can do <C-w>C, which will close the opened tab and take us back to the original one. I, personally, prefer this way of working (that way I don't lose my position in the file)
I go to the function I want, make my corrections there then return to the original file from which I started.
Let me know, what would you like (this didn't fit in comments so I put the answer here).
This might point you in the right direction:
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Open_every_buffer_in_its_own_tabpage
So, this is a feature I would like to see as well.
I'm not sure if it's possible.
What I usually do is
:tabnew
:tag somepartsoffunction*
and press tab to use globbing to easily find tag.
Sure, it's not an ideal solution, but it works most of the time.
Unfortunately, with VIM tabbing isn't totally integrated since it's a new feature since 7.0. Most people I know that use VIM weren't even aware of tabs until I told them, so with that, I have a feeling there is no way to do it right now.
(I would love to be proven wrong)
