Eclipse: Shortcut for bookmarks

Thread view:

Hi,

Eclipse is great. But I think I miss a very important function:

Is it possible to set a quick bookmark in the java editor (like unsing Crtl-F2 in UltraEdit)?

I know the bookmark-functionality, but that doesn't have any keystrokes.
Therefore you can't mark a line with one key, scrolling around and then using another key
to jumb back.

Is it really missing or do I miss something?

Thanks and greetings
Heinz

You can define (or reassign) your own key bindings in Windows->Preferences->Workbench->Keys.

You can navigate through your history with the Alt-LeftArrow and Alt-RightArrow keys (or with the
Back and Forward buttons on the toolbar). Ctrl-, and Ctrl-. move to next/previous annotation in the
source file (annotation = error, warning, or even bookmark if ticked in the dropdown next to the
up/down annotation buttons on the toolbar).
