Ctrl-Right/Ctrl-Left no longer scroll horizontally in Navigator/Package Explorer [message #330072]

Up to v3.3, Ctrl-Right and Ctrl-Left used to scroll horizontally when
focus was in Navigator or Package Explorer. Apparently, v3.4 lost this
ability. So you MUST use the mouse to see long filenames or resources deep
in the package tree, which is quite annoying.

Does anyone know whether this is a bug or a feature? Is there a way to
re-bind these keys to the action of scrolling?

Regards
Ralf

You can disable colored labels if this really important to you.
