# Quick Navigator

Use the **RadDock** built-in pop-up **QuickNavigator** to set the focus to any **DockWindow** or **ToolWindow**. Press **Ctrl-Tab** to open the navigation selector. Leave the **Ctrl** button depressed and press the **Tab** button to scroll through the names of the open **DockWindows**. If your current active **DockWindow** is **DocumentWindow**, pressing the **Tab** will scroll only through **DocumentWindows**; if the current active **DockWindow** is **ToolWindow**, pressing the **Tab** will scroll only through **ToolWindows**. You can jump from **DocumentWindows** to **ToolWindows** and vise versa by using the mouse or by using the arrow keys.

## Preserve Document Tab Order

By default, Quick Navigator moves the selected document to the top of the activation order when you activate it. This behavior matches the default `Ctrl+Tab` navigation behavior in Visual Studio.

Set the `QuickNavigatorSettings.MoveSelectedItemOnTop` property to `false` to activate a document without changing its position in the document tab order. Quick Navigator activates the selected document and preserves the existing document tab order.

> note The default value of the `MoveSelectedItemOnTop` is `true`.

#### Example 1: Stop Preserving the Document Tab Order

```C#
this.radDock1.QuickNavigatorSettings.MoveSelectedItemOnTop = false;
```

```VB.NET
Me.RadDock1.QuickNavigatorSettings.MoveSelectedItemOnTop = False
```
