Had the same problem, alt-tab was ignored despite being set in gconf. However, turning on the 'Application Switcher' plugin in CompizConfig Settings Manager saved the day. Cheers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https:

An an addendum - I went to "system settings"/"keyboard shortcuts" and tried changing the "Move between windows, using a popup window" command to a different key combination (I selected alt-T). When I did this, alt-T also did nothing. Then I switched the binding back to the default alt-tab. It still

I have the same issue. alt-tab does nothing, but /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_windows is set properly. When I first switched from 10.10 to 11.04, alt-tab worked. Then at some point (don't know exactly when), it stopped working. Now I don't know how to get it to work again! It's frustra

I have the same issue, after upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 this weekend. However, I looked with gconf-editor at /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_windows and it's already set to "Tab". Gustavo. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscr

I had the same issue. Changing the 'disabled' state to Tab did the trick, but I'm quite sure that this all worked flawlessly before the upgrade. So, if this same key, as I assume, which would have caused the same issue within maverick not being able to switch windows, then the only explanation I

Sameer, Thanks for digging deeper. This is definitely not unity bug. During upgrades it is made sure that user settings are /not/ touched or altered. There are reasons why gconf-editor is not exposed by default and why tweek tools are not installed by default, to avoid users accidentally changi

This is a tricky one - we're often uncertain how assertive we can be about resetting the settings a user has adopted to something resembling the defaults. On the one hand, folks who get into a precarious settings position will feel they have a bug and it's our fault. On the other, folks who have r

This bug occurred due to the following gconf setting being unset: /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_windows Once It was set to Tab, the alt tab switching worked fine. Perhaps unity needs to check that this setting is set, and if not, then set it. Any ideas on how this setting remained unse

It works fine on my other machine too. I've upgraded my machine from lucid to maverick, so perhaps there's some config conflict. Will check if this problem persists with a new user. ** Also affects: unity Importance: Undecided Status: New -- alt-tab does not switch between application

OK, not a dup. ALt-tab works fine here, so must be something specific to your system. Any ideas? -- alt-tab does not switch between applications https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/652097 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. --

It is not working between normal apps for me. For example, if I have a terminal and a web browser open in the same workspace, when the browser is in focus and I hold down alt, and press tab, everytime I press tab, the tab events get sent to the browser. Likewise when I have the terminal in focus a
