Mac – Switch Windows in Pages

keyboardmacpagesshortcutwindows

So I'm using Pages on my Mac and I once was able to switch the windows (NOT the application, but the windows in Pages) with the shortcut command + < or command + >. Now, they apparently removed this function.

new shortcuts

In other applications like Safari it does still work. Do you know how I can activate this function again?

Thanks in advance!

It looks like Pages overwrites the command + < shortcut to zoom out the view even though that's the default shortcut for moving focus between windows on a German keyboard.

You can go in to System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortucts to redefine that shortcut in Pages. Click App Shortcuts, click the + button, select Pages from the Application list, enter your equivalent of "Zoom Out" for the menu title, and enter a new keyboard shortcut.

Entering a keyboard shortcut

In my example, I assigned command + back tick to Zoom Out and now in Pages that shortcut zooms out the view instead of switching windows.
