Description

You'll stop having both outliner and the properties panels on screen when they are one "Tab" away from each other !

Keymap Tab key to super quickly swap between outliner and properties.
Exactly like Shift+F7 for Property editor and Shift+F9 for outliner but waaay faster ;)

You can add the keymap manually the exact same way the addon does as shown in this french forum (which was the direct source for creating this addon)

But also:
Keymap Z to swap between dopesheet and graph editor. (Hjalti Hjalmarsson idea)

Keymap shift+Z to swap between timeline and dopesheet (my idea, hurray !)

Keymap Ctrl+Tab to swap between outliner modes, add Shift to reverse

bonus :
Keymap ctrl+shift+alt+X to iterate in properties panels tabs (the shortcut is way to complex but it's hard to get free left-hand-accessible shortcuts these days ^^)

note

robert-trirop made an addon "editor switcher" that call a pie menu for switching area (with all area choices), if you want a quick way to change/relocate area, it may be better for you.
