Super+W needs a intuitive logic!

 

___Super+W___ (Spread Windows) is designed to switch "fast" between windows, no matter they are open, max- or minimized, right? That works fine, if you select your destination on Mouseclick! BUT with keyboard arrows you can only go up and down the Launcher ... choose which application you want, not which window of it! Also if you do not release the Super-key and press an arrow you resize the active window without noticing. Do you call these features or bugs?

How I think it should be!
- After pressing a Super-Shortcut ... the Super+Arrow-Shortcut (resize) should be disabled until selection is done. - The Shortcut-Overlay should only appear if Super was pressed without any other key ... and longer than 10seconds. - Spread Windows should hover active window and/or desaturate/darken ... maybe like "Spread Workspaces" less dark ...
- Choose window with arrow-keys:
* Up/Down to choose application in launcher ... Right/Left to choose which window of application. or * No matter which application, just out of position in SpreadView with arrow-keys

Sorry for reporting that late, maybe it could be realized in an update!
