Sublime Text 3 redefine keybindings for Jump Back/Forward

Question

In Sublime Text 3 the default keybindings for Jump Back/Forward are "alt+minus" / "alt+shift+minus" correspondingly. Trying to redefine it to some other hotkey (like"alt+left" / "alt+right") didn't work for me. I was trying the solution described in Sublime Navigation History plugin:

ST3

This plugin is no longer needed for ST3, as of build 3019 Navigation History has been natively added via the new Jump Back and Jump Forward commands. They are called "jump_back" and "jump_forward" and you can add them to your key bindings (Preferences -> Key Bindings - User) with the following snippet:

{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+left"], "command": "jump_back" }, { "keys": ["ctrl+alt+right"], "command": "jump_forward" }

I have tried various keybinding combinations, but none of them seem to trigger jump back/forward commands. And I couldn't find the default keybindings for jump back/forward commands in the default preferences file.

What am I missing?

P.S.: Sublime Text Version 3.1.1, Build 3176; OS Win7x64

Sorry, my mistake. Haven't noticed a typo in command name. Case closed.

First here is the default binding for jump_back and jump_forward :

`{ "keys": ["alt+keypad_minus"], "command": "jump_back" },
{ "keys": ["alt+shift+keypad_minus"], "command": "jump_forward" },
{ "keys": ["alt+-"], "command": "jump_back" },
{ "keys": ["alt+shift+-"], "command": "jump_forward" },`

Then to set your own binding properties you should modify the right panel (empty by default) with your binding like this : [ {"keys": ["alt+left"], "command":"jump_back"}, {"keys": ["alt+right"], "command":"jump_forward"} ]
