Hi!

I've got a little Problem:
wrote a Language in XTex and added several templates
(Like
"This is a ${attribute} template, this is a template that is more ${otherAttribute}."

Now it is common, that you can switch between attribute and otherAttribute by using the TAB key.

The Problem i have is, that i'd like to Swtch by another Key.

Like if my template would look like "${name};${forname}", i want to make sure you can change from name to formane by klicking the ";" key.

Is there a Possibility to reach that goal?

I don't think this is performed by Xtext, it is probably done by general
template functionality in the Eclipse text editing framework. You need
to dig into that to figure it out.
