Thank you.

Another question:

Is it possible to switch (the control) from one pane to the other by pressing Tab?

I tried assiging the Tab keyboard shortcut to 'Toggle Active Pane' w/o any luck.

Goto "Tools>Configuration>Dual Pane" and set the Tab key to "Swap panes only".

Reading this it just appeared to me that "Swap panes only" is a weird caption. Why "only"? This makes sense only when you know/read the other captions for which you have to open the drop down. So I think "Swap panes" (or "Switch panes", or "Toggle Panes"?) would be better. Any objections?

'Switch panes' would be a good choice.

I think "Swap panes" sounds good for an menu item to do this action.
But for this setting in option "Tab through both panes only" would fit in accordance with the other entries?

Why? Because you're making it very clear that by doing so removes the ability to use it for the other normal functions, and if "only" isn't there, it could imply that it will swap in addition to other functions.

OK, but I still find the wording not optimal in the context. I would prefer Stefan's suggestion: "Tab through both panes only"

But Tab doesn't go "through" the panes, but only "between" them, right? Because "through" could be interpreted to also include the tabs or some other places...ok, maybe only by newbies, but it's possible to infer that...thus, I'd swap that word to "between" to eliminate that...and then it'd be fine.
