<![CDATA[Unable to cancel tab switch]]>Hi!

When I hit ctrl + tab and then hit ESC to cancel the tab switch, I am seeing that the preview disappears however, the switch still occurs. Is anyone else seeing this behavior?

Is there any workaround to this?

Thanks.

Ok, so then there is no cancel mechanism for the navigation. This is different than Firefox (tab-switch with preview) and Mac OS x app navigation; both allow cancellation of the navigation.

It is that once I hit ctrl+tab, I see the previews. Now, if I want to cancel the tab switch, there is nothing I can do. Hitting ESC doesn't stop the switch (browser navigates to the next tab).

Is this a bug or is there a key combination that I can press that can cancel the navigation? Thanks.

Go to: OMenu > Settings > "Search" >> Shortcuts

And reset them.

The previews and tab menu should be hidden once you release the keyboard keys.
