Describe the request

Switching between ino files is sometimes very difficult when there are many ino files in a project because the navigation bar is too thin. Please create a left and right arrow button at both end of the line.

Describe the current behavior

see above

Arduino IDE version

2.0.3

Operating system

Linux

Operating system version

Debian

Hi @iddq. When you say "navigation bar", do you mean the scrollbar circled here":

I have also noticed this is far too thin to comfortably use.

I much prefer the size of the scrollbar on VS Code:

Would you consider a reasonably sized scrollbar like that an acceptable alternative to the arrow buttons you proposed?


I also notice the scrollbar has an odd behavior of changing thickness in an inverse proportion to the the relative horizontal mouse position:

editor-tab-scrolbar

It seems like a bug because I can't imagine anyone would intentionally design a UI element to have such a nonsensical behavior.

Please create a left and right arrow button at both end of the line.

IDE2 should have a wider scrollbar but no additional arrows or actions, as requested.

The code navigation is possible in the following ways:

These seem sufficient, but they need to be documented.

Could you please put this CTRL+P search into ... menu or into main menu? It would be useful for new users.
