Title Body

I want to move back/forward between editor tabs, using the two additional ("virtual") mouse buttons I have ( RAZER DEATHADDER BLACK ). In Eclipse, it's possible by default. In IDEA, I go to File -> Settings -> Keymap -> Main menu -> Window -> Editor Tabs . There, I have Select Next Tab with the default Alt+Right shortcut. Then, I open the Add Mouse Shortcut .

I'd appreciate a solution - how do I assign these back/forward mouse buttons? UPDATE #1 I've found out that IDEA uses its own JAVA distribution ( C:\Program Files (x86)\JetBrains\IntelliJ IDEA 11.1.4\jre on Windows 7), instead of the system's one - WHY?! I'm almost SURE that is the reason I cannot use extended mouse buttons. I've tried to trick IDEA by creating a custom Windows shortcut. Didn't work. I've also tried to create a SYMLINK in windows to my other, system-wide JRE distribution. Didn't work as well. If someone come up with an idea on how to make it work with the system's JRE instead of
