Hi everyone,
the basic problem here is that <Alt><Shift>Tab combination is not working for shifting windows in reverse direction while <Alt>Tab for normal direction works.
There are already few threads about this. But I am starting this new one because none of them helped me.
I have Compiz installed and using Application Switcher.
I have <Alt><Shift>Tab set under Prew_window in preferences of Application Switcher.
I have searched through all shortcuts in Compiz using its build in search with "Settings value" checked and there is no other binding to this shortcut.
I have the combination set in gconf-editor -> apps -> metacity -> global_keybindings -> switch_windows_backward
I tried to restart after each new setting (even probably not necessary)
This is all other threads were advising to cure the issue but still not working. One more thing which seems important to me:
I am using two different keyboard layouts and <Alt><Shift> to switch between them.
I am running fresh install of 10.04 ubuntu and I'd like to get this feature run since I miss it from winXP (Sorry, I had to use this word :) )
Pls help or advise where to look for it, thnks
