[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

 

Now I understand, thank you.
And I hope the idea is not hard to be implemented.

  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
