Keyboard Shortcut to focus on the build/run pane (for Xcode projects)
In AppCode (and IntelliJ), it's possible to configure keyboard shortcuts to jump between all the different “Tool Windows”, and specifically the “Run”/"Debug" ones when building/running an app. This lets me use the keyboard to edit code → run the project → switch to the build/run log → search the log/errors etc.
I can't find a way to jump to the Run/Debug pane in Fleet! “Jump to Build output tool” doesn't work (grayed out entirely), same for “Logcat Tool”, “Debugger Console” isn't it…
Crucial to be able to do this with the keyboard, let me know if I missed it…
Thanks!

Hello,
Thank you for the feedback!
What for the “jump to build output” action, please follow the issue: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/FL-30638/Jump-to-build-output-tool-is-permanently-greyed-out
For the “debug tool”, please check if the “Jump to Debug tool” action is present for you?
For the “debugger console”, please check the following:
And for the “logcat tool”
Thank you
Hi Olga,
Thanks for responding!
Perhaps I wasn't entirely clear, I'm not looking for way to jump to “Logcat” etc. I gave those as examples for things that are *not* what I want.
I want to jump to the pane that comes up when you build & run an Xcode project (iOS/MacOS app etc.) and displays both the build log as well as the apps console output. I'm not sure what that pane is called, and so don't know how to jump to it…
See the attached image.
Thanks!
Thank you for clarification!
I believe it should be the "jump to build output", but unfortunately it doesn't work as expected, please follow the issue covering this case:
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/FL-30638/Jump-to-build-output-tool-is-permanently-greyed-out
As a workaround please try using the "cmd+2" to jump to the bottom pane, I think this should help.
Thank you Olga!
Cmd+2 did nothing for me (that's the first thing I tried, and I don't see any “Jump to bottom panel” action), but I did now find the “Toggle Bottom Panel” action and mapped that to Cmd+2, which is an okay workaround for now!
Would you mind checking what action you have Cmd+2 mapped to?
Will follow the issue, thanks!
Thank you for checking! The action is really called "toggle bottom panel" and I have it mapped to "cmd+2". Sorry for misleading!
Thank you Olga, really appreciate your help!
I'm now noticing another severe issue with the “build output” panel – it's impossible to navigate with the keyboard! I usually navigate it by finding something (Cmd+f) then jumping between results with <enter>, that works, but any other kind of keyboard navigation doesn't. So for example hitting “up” or “down” to scroll the text doesn't work, same for page-up page-down (does nothing), shift + left/right to select text does nothing etc. Not sure what's been done there but it shouldn't behave like this!
Not sure if it's a separate issue or the same one but I think it's critical to fix… WDYT?
Thank you for the detailed feedback!
