            Bug ID: 139672
           Summary: UI: Ctrl+Tab switch to most recently used tab
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: info at scito.ch

Description:
It should be possible to switch by Ctrl+Tab (Ctrl-Tab) to the most recently
used (MRU) tab in Calc similar to the behavior of Alt+Tab on Windows or KDE
Plasma.

Firefox supports switching between tabs in most recently used order by Ctrl+Tab
as well. There is an option in the settings to enable it.
KDE Text Kate or Visual Studio Code support Ctrl+Tab in MRU order by default.

If Ctrl+Tab is hold a moment, a tab selection should be shown to choose older
tabs (similar to Firefox, Windows or KDE Plasma).

I suggest to add an option for enabling Ctrl+Tab MRU order as in Firefox.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new spreadsheet with 5 tabs in Calc with names #1, #2, ... #5
3. Click on tab #5
4. Click on tab #2
5. Click on tab #4
6. Click on tab #1
7. Press Ctrl+Tab (with release)
8. Press Ctrl+Tab (with release)
9. Press Ctrl+Tab (with release)
10. Press and hold Ctrl+Tab

Actual Results:
7. Tab #2 is activated
8. Tab #3 is activated
9. Tab #4 is activated
10. Tab #5 is activated

Expected Results:
7. Tab #4 is activated
8. Tab #1 is activated
9. Tab #4 is activated
10. A tab selection overview (overlay) is shown which displays the tabs in most
recent used order (as for Winodws, KDE Plasma or Firefox)


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
