** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided => Low
** Description changed:
1. Open up several apps (for instance, a web browser, a game, a file manager
and a terminal). Don't have the apps maximized.
2. Press Alt+Tab. Hold down the Alt key and click the tab selector so that
the game is active.
3. While continuing to hold down Alt, use your mouse to click the terminal
tile
Expected behavior: Unity should switch to the terminal since the mouse click
overrides where the tab happened to end up.
Alternate example:
3. While continuing to hold down Alt, change your mind and click to the
actual file manager in the background.
Expected behavior: Unity should switch to the file manager since the mouse
click overrides the Alt+Tab behavior.
Other notes:
Gnome Shell works the way I expect; it would be nice for Unity to do the
Right Thing also.
+ =====User testing result=====
+ In user testing we found that several users tried to use the pointer to
select applications/windows when alt-tab was open.
+
+ The requested change is to enable the use of the pointer and left click
+ to select a specific app/window. Left clicking on a app/window should
+ close the alt-tab and bring the selected item into focus.
