  <p>You can search for keyboard shortcuts by going to edit–&gt;keyboard shortcuts. Searching for the project panel there only reveals the shortcut you have already mentioned. I guess that you're out of luck.</p>

Answers.Text: That's true. Tough there is no shortcut to directly lay focus on the project-panel, so unless you're able to find some 3rd party plugin, you're stuck with this solution.

  Is there a keystroke / keyboard shortcut to move focus to the Project Panel?
  
  I know CMD+0 toggles Project Panel visibility, but is there a key that when pressed can be followed by UP/DOWN arrows to keyboard navigate the contents of the Project Panel.
