This is such a basic issue that I refuse to believe I'm the first to bump into this behaviour. Hence I ask here first for some help. I recently upgraded to Gnome3 and switching between windows with alt+tab is rather broken for me. Here's why I say that: 1. I make sure I have two non-overlapping windows on the screen at the same time. 2. I position the mouse pointer in one of the window. 3. At this point I can't switch focus to the other window with alt+tab. Basically I have two options: 1. Move the mouse pointer so that it's not in any window, then I can use alt+tab. 2. Move the mouse to switch focus. Neither of these is very convenient. Does anyone recognise this? /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus I invented the term Object-Oriented, and I can tell you I did not have C++ in mind. -- Alan Kay
