Hi,

I just noticed that two of my most frequently used key strokes, i.e., Ctrl+F6 and Ctrl+F8, no longer do what they used
to do the 10 years before. They used to switch between the two most recently used editors or perspectives. And that
*without* requiring me to confirm that next editor/perspective with the Enter key in this nasty new popup (see attached
screenshot).

I find this especially odd because I really only ever have two open perspectives (Java and Debug) and I have a special
key on my Logitech keyboard which I use to quickly switch between these two perspectives. That no longer works ;-(

Is this new behavior intended? If so, why? And how can I get the old behavior back?

Cheers
/Eike

I just found out that I caused this popup to stay open when I played with the preference persistence mechanism and
accidentally changed that associated preference on the "General" page ;-(

Sorry for the noise!

Cheers
