It looks like CTRL+SHIFT+END for ‘previous’ and CTRL+END for ’next’ but those don’t work for me. (probably because they are assigned to OS level shortcuts on Mac) Not sure if they are the same on Windows and Linux.

The menu entries show what keys are assigned on the right-hand side.

Regards,
Adrien
