In InDesign, I often want to quckly Ctrl+Tab back and forth between two documents side-by-side (using, of course, Ctrl+Shift+Tab to go the other way). But I might have four documents open, in total. I carefully place the two documents I want to constantly compare, next to each other, but when I Ctrl+Tab it doesn't seem to make a difference and InDesign seems to cycle it in order of 'last used' anyway.

Like you can customise with browsers (or at least via extensions), is there a setting to change it so that it's ALWAYS cycling in order of tabs and not 'last used'?

Edit: I've included the Photoshop tag, as I do seem to reember experiencing it in Photoshop also, but I have opened ID and PS fresh sessions and can't seem to be able to reproduce the issue at first. I think the 'last used' phemononen kicks in once you've done some work across the documents, so for now I'll keep the PS tag in as is.

Thanks.
