MDI Virtual Space - Keyboard Shortcuts for Navigation?

I’ve been exploring the new MDI Virtual Space feature and it’s fantastic for organizing multiple charts across a larger workspace.

Quick question: Are there currently any keyboard shortcuts available to quickly navigate or scroll between different areas of the virtual space?

For example, hotkeys to jump to specific quadrants and/or have saved scroll positions you can quickly switch between. If not this would be a great addition. Example would be having some charts out of view or a set of charts in a certain position within the virtual space that you could jump to and then back to your main view if that makes sense.

Thanks!

No not yet. But what does exist is this option:
General Settings Window: Scroll Virtual Space to Show MDI Window on Activation (Global Settings >> General Settings >> GUI >> Multiple Document Interface (MDI) and Custom Title Bar Settings)

You can jump quickly to a chart with the MDI tabs, or by selecting a chart from the CW menu and the virtual space will be automatically scrolled so the chart goes to the top left.
