The attached imag shows what appears to be a great feature where you can search tabs when you have a lot open.
However, I can't figure out how to get to it without using the mnouse. Can anyone tell me how to use keyboard shortcuts to search open tabs?

This will switches to the next tab. Sadly, this doesn't open tab search as far as I can tell.
If I have 50 tabs open, this is not a helpful solution, so I don't think this is the answer, sorry...

You could try typing "preferences Keyboard.Shortcuts" in the command window to see all keyboard shortcuts. It seems to me that there is not currently an existing one to do exactly what you are looking for, unfortunately.

Already been down that route too. I can't find the option that corresponds to the tab search in preferences, so I think you're right. I don't think matlab supports this right now.
