Alt+W

In Maple 14 and below, you can probably only use the ALT+W then the number key for the corresponding window.

In Maple 15 you can use CTRL+TAB (move forward through the tabs) and CTRL+SHIFT+TAB (move backward through the tabs).

Well then the Maple 13 documentation is wrong,

Well then the Maple 13 documentation is wrong, because it says I can cycle thru' open Maple windows using Alt-Shift-F6. It neither cycles thru' windows nor tabs. In short, IT DON'T WORK !

Yes and No...

@andrewfortune: Yes and No.

This particular user was wondering about switching tabs as opposed to windows in Maple, and for this, my comments above are accurate.

Regarding switching windows, ALT-SHIFT-F6 works in Windows XP, but does not work in newer versions of Windows such as Win 7. I realize that the documentation is somewhat misleading in this case and as such, I have made a request to clarify this in the documentation.

If you are using newer versions of Windows, then the ALT+W+# is the only way (other than ALT+TAB) to switch between Windows.

Hope this helps.
