Switching between editor and console in PyDev

Question

I usually use the key combination Ctrl + Alt + Enter to send a code selection from the Eclipse (Juno) PyDev editor to the interactive console. But this passes control to the console.

I was wondering if there is any way to automatically (or using a shortcut) return control to the code editor.

Answer 1

In the preferences of Eclipse, go to "PyDev/Editor/Interactive Console" and uncheck "Focus console when an evaluate command is sent from the editor". This will leave the focus in the editor, while evaluating the code in the console.
