Is there a way to have the instant "Bring-to-Front" feature under Ubuntu while "Alt+Tab" are being hold? Just as it is under you know which OS.

  • Can you explain what exactly do you want by instant "Bring-to-Front"? And Just as it is under you know which OS?

  • As it is under Windows 7: when "alt+tab" are hit, almost immediately the next app window is brought to the front (above all other open windows) without letting the "alt+tab" keys.

  • This behavior is used in Ubuntu as well. So, you want to say that when you press Alt+Tab nothing is happen?

You can enable Shift Switcher plugin from CompizConfig Settings Manager Install CompizConfig Settings Manager. The default key combination is Shift+Supe+S, but you can change this combination as you wish. It looks something like this:

Also, using CompizConfig Settings Manager you have many other options in this sense. Just test them and choose what you like.

  • Many thanks! However, is that mean there's no way to do sth like this without 3d party plugins?
