It seems like you can move to the next or previous file with tab + up/down arrow keys.

I just found out by mashing all the buttons I could think of. :-)

This is not exactly it. What I meant was, something what IrfanView does: when you open an image (or any file the program can read), you can press a button to open the (alphabetically?) next or previous image in the same folder.

Looks like Preview only has this, when you select all files and open them (Cmd+O). Wish it was like IrfanView.

I’m confused here , so like if you’re in a folder with a file selected and hit the space bar , does pressing the arrow keys not preview the next file for you ?

It does not

Try up/down arrows, not left/right.

Nope, does not work.
