Thank you Jo-Erlend and Nick for your replies. I found them helpful. I would like to know if you and other Unity design members agree with me on the following:
*Switching between windows of an application* *OBJECTIVE* To enable users to switch between windows of an application as efficiently as possible in order to maximize user productivity. *CURRENT IMPLEMENTATION* Users can press Alt+(button above Tab), Super+(application launcher number), or Super+W to bring up a window switcher, and select the desired window. *EVALUATION* The current implementation requires 2 steps in order to switch to the desired window: (1) Pressing a keyboard combination that bring up a window switcher. (2) Selecting the desired window. Since it requires 2 steps, it is not as efficient as possible. * ALTERNATIVE IMPLEMENTATION* Users can additionally press (some key)+(1 to 0) [analogous to Super+(1 to 0) for switching between applications] to switch to the desired window. Each window is associated with a number based on its ordinal position. Users can manually change the ordering of the windows, and prevent automatic reordering. *EVALUATION* The alternative implementation enables users to switch to the desired window in a single step. Therefore, it would be more efficient than the current implementation. Aviv Yeshayav
