Tab navigation for tabs is weird too

#1

If I hit Ctrl + Tab, it takes me to some random tab.

In all major browsers: Tab takes you to the right. Ctrl + Shift + Tab takes you to the left.

What’s the deal? Is this intelligent tabbing or something? Can I disable it? Thanks

Actually this is where I had trouble when I first start using sublime.
By default, ctrl+tab it send you to last active tab. The thing is you have to release ctrl key before press the keys again.

To disable this behavior and just go to prev/next tab in the order, you have to edit Key binding user and add this:

{ "keys": "ctrl+tab"], "command": "next_view" },
{ "keys": "ctrl+shift+tab"], "command": "prev_view" }

Update for those interested in browser like tabs:
{ “keys”: “ctrl+t”], “command”: “new_file” }
