[Bug 1239092] Re: Alt-Tab - show the window that will be focused by an ALT+TAB release as the user cycles through apps and windows in ALT+TAB

 

@Miroslav: the "Ayatana Design" task of the bug is marked as "Fix
Committed."  Many bugs required tasks to be completed by several
different people or groups before it's finally resolved.  In this case,
the bug is still open upstream in Unity and a task also still open to
track its release into the Ubuntu distribution.

  Alt-Tab - show the window that will be focused by an ALT+TAB release

Bug description:
  There must be a way to have the instant "Bring-to-Front" feature under
  Ubuntu while "Alt+Tab" are being hold. :) Just as it is under you know
  which OS. :) As it is under Windows 7: when "alt+tab" are hit, almost
  immediately the next app window is brought to the front (above all
  other open windows) without letting the "alt+tab" keys. I mean without
  needing the keys to be let.

  This behaviour is typical even for KDE. And it's configurable under
  GNOME 3.

  --------------------------
  Note from design:

  +1 on experimenting with this idea, but we will need to review a PPA
  of this change before it lands in Ubuntu
