Public bug reported: There's a GUI convention for navigation: adding the Shift modifier to a hotkey is typically interpreted as 'do the same thing as the hotkey, except in the other direction'. Control+Tab+Shift may visit the previous Web browser tab. Control+Z+Shift may redo the last edit, and so on.
Ubuntu offers Alt+Tab for switching between windows, and Alt+Tilde for switching between windows of the same application. Ubuntu also offers Alt+Shift+Tab for switching between windows in reverse order. However, Ubuntu, or some odd dependency, neglected to make a corresponding Alt+Shift+Tilde hotkey for switching between windows of the same application in reverse order. Please add this missing hotkey. ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: alt alt+tab hotkey mac shift shortcut tab tilde -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
