Name of resource bundle property which can disable window switching when the input focus is in JTable or JTabbedPane.
Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab key strokes are hard-coded to switch between opened TopComponents. However the same keys are also used in some Containers (e.g. JTable and JTabbedPane) to transfer input focus to next Component.
When this property is set to true (default value) and input focus is in JTable or JTabbedPane then the window system will consume Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab key strokes and show window switcher popup.
When this property is set to false then KeyboardFocusManager will consume Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab key strokes to transfer focus out of JTable or out of JTabbedPane.
The property value can be adjusted by branding of org.netbeans.core.windows module. Or use -J-DNB.WinSys.WinSys.CtrlTabSwitching.In.JTable.Enabled=true command-line switch to override.
