This was an RFE that was implemented for 9.0.
The change history that is navigated by Alt-Right, Alt-left was only at the
level of files.
With the advent of hyperlink support, where you can Ctrl click to the
definition of any variable, file, procedure, subroutine, etc, there was a
demand to be able to quickly return to where you came from. Not only did
we accomplish this. but we made the traversal of your change history to be
more granular, not just to last file visited, but last change made.
The design of Eclipse is to use Alt-Left/Alt-right for history traversal
(you will also see the previous and back arrows in the toolbar).
As was discussed in a previous thread, Eclipse provide many other way to go
to different editors. Ctrl-F6, Ctrl-E, Ctrl-Shift-E to name a few. I
recommend learning these standard ways of navigating in Eclipse as this is
not something in my control, I have to work within the Eclipse framework.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Confusing Source locations V9.1
Sent by: wdsci-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx
Hi,
Normally, before 9.1, when i use the navigation keys alt-left or alt-right
i immediately go the the previous/next source member.
Now, with version 9, there are suddenly some locations within the current
source to which the cursor jumps to first, before going to the
previous/next member.
I tried to figure out what these source locations are, how to clear, or how
to manage them but i could'nt find anything.
It;'s very confusing, as i do not know which logic is behind setting these
locations. Sometimes i suddenly have 4 locations, or 6, or none, so using
the array keys is confusing and to jump to the previous/next member i have
to use the mouse.
Is there a possibilty to disable this (new?) feature, or can somebody point
me to some help about these locations? I know about bookmarks but it has
nothing to do with that.
It's really annoying
