Shortcuts for code navigation

Please add support for shortcuts that help navigating the code panel quickly.

All code editors I've used allow to jump to the beginning/end of code with home/end CMD+UP/CMD+DOWN. This is highly inconvenient and surely an easy fix.

I noticed that when pressing CMD+UP/DOWN the preview panel is highlighted for a moment, as if that is taking the input, despite the cursor is in the code window and I was typing code a moment before.

==============

It's already built-in.

 

I'm on Windows 11.  Use Cmd for macOS.

Ctrl + Home = top of code

Ctrl + End = end of code

Ctrl + G = go to code line # (macOS Cmd + ,)

Ctrl + F = basic Find function

Ctr + [ = select parent tag

 

For more keyboard shortcuts, see cheat sheet below.

Also see this relevant link for more on Dreamweaver's status.

 

Hope that helps.

The business prefers me to use Adobe Dw, having switched security systems and so on, blocking most apps/websites that were available before. Very annoying peer pressure as well from teammates that push me to use Dw when they seen me not using it.

Also, we pay thousands in licenses, so Adobe should get off their seats and start maintaining products properly! Dw keeps crashing for no reason at all, that would be a starting point.

=========

Crashes are abnormal and usually a sign of another problem, such as a corrupted Preferences file or a document containing invalid or irreconcilable code errors.

 

1.  Run Code Validation and fix reported errors. 

Window > Results > Validation > Check document.

 

2. Restore Preferences

As DW is in minimal maintenance mode it is only receiving criticla updates at this point in time. If you have used other code editors that provide this functionality you may be better using them for these shortcuts moving forward.
