Catching shift and ctrl TAB in texteditor [message #438026]

I use a verifyListener to catch the TAB character in in my TextEditor. When
a control or shift TAB is entered this the listener is not called. What
listener do I have to attach to to grab these inputs?

Hi,

Use traverse listener like this:

addTraverseListener(new TraverseListener(){
public void keyTraversed(TraverseEvent e) {
switch (e.detail) {
case SWT.TRAVERSE_TAB_NEXT:
// SHIFT+TAB was pressed
break;
case SWT.TRAVERSE_TAB_PREVIOUS:
break;
}
