I also have the opinion that the application switcher in metacity is much easier to use. Would it be possible to have some options for compiz-plugin application switcher to have it behave more like that when the user would like to?
1) For starters an options that will only show you the icon and not a scaled down version of the window behind it. 2) Another option would be that for 1, 2, 3, and perhaps 4 and 5 applications, the behaviour can be set that not the icons move but the highlight (black square around the icon) moves. With only a few applications the effect of moving through a list is gone. Try switching with two applications. One gets the impression that more applications are active. 3) Also not all icons of applications are shown. E.g. icons of amsn, xsane are not shown in compiz-plugins 1:0.7.4-0ubuntu7 I hope the above two feature requests can be implemented and the one bug can be fixed or do I have to report these explicitly upstream? Implementing and fixing will not shock (not so experienced) users so much as is happening now. -- Compiz default Application Switcher (Alt+Tab) is difficult to use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220227 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
