r - rstudio shortcuts in source editor after View()

Question

I am trying to learn a bit more about RStudio shortcuts (on Windows).

d <- matrix(nrow = 0, ncol = 1500) %>%
      data.table

I find it very convenient to have a look at things by using View from utils. For instance, I usually go to console and type names(d) %>% View. This opens up a new tab in the source editor, named "."

If I want to go back to the source editor with "ctrl + 1" to inspect the new tab, this wont work. I can move to a different tab by selecting it with "ctrl + alt + left/right" and then "ctrl + 1", as usual.

Still, after moving to ".", scrolling up and down using my keyboard works only if I first click with the mouse on the tab. After this, I can happily move back to the other tabs, as expected.

Question: is it possible to use my keyboard to scroll up/down in the tab "." without having to firstly click on it?
