I'm having absolutely no issues with Alt-Tab in Unity 3D on my end. Perhaps it depends on the video driver in use? System specs: 3.3 GHz AMD Phenom II X2 560, 4GB DDR3, Nvidia GT 520 on 295.40 drivers (proprietary), 12.04 LTS x86-64. -- You received this bug notification because you are a membe

In my opinion, this bug belongs in the "One Hundred Paper Cuts" list. It was marked invalid for that list in May of this year, but the alt-tab functionality has been completely reimplemented since then, so it's worth re-evaluating now. See my comment above; the responsiveness should not be measure

I am seeing this even after setting the window popup delay to zero. I think the configurable delay is actually a red herring for the real bug, a lack of responsiveness when hitting alt-tab. On my machine the lag between the keystroke and the window appearing is about 400-500ms. Other compiz-relat

I cannot think of any reason for having a 0.2 second delay before showing the Alt+Tab window. It is just a bad default. The default value for popup_delay should be 0. It's just a trivial change, and almost all users use Alt+Tab nowadays, and a 0.2 second delay is quite noticeable in this case. S
