I looked into the bug and there are two problems here: a) metacity handles switch_window special by adding a implicit binding for backwards that is the forward binding plus the "Shift" key (even if switch_window_backwards is disabled) - this confuses compiz that tracks switch_window and switch_window_backwards b) the setting for swtich_window_backwards in our metacity package got broken during a merge in 1:2.27.1-0ubuntu1 (Sep 2009)
I attach a patch that fixes the problem on the compiz level by adding code to follow that implicit behavior. But for a SRU it is probably more suitable to add the gconf default back (but we need to test if that is sufficient). ** Patch added: "proposed fix" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/38364271/compizconfig-backend-gconf.patch -- alt shift tab stopped navigating windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/150702 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
