Version: unspecified (using Devel) OS: Linux There is a mouse action “Switch window” which triggers a window list on the desktop. When assigned to vertical scroll (scrolling with mouse wheel) nothing happens. Either this menu should appear anyway or enable you to really cycle through the windows. Or remove it from the selection menu when action is Vertical Scroll. Reproducible: Always
I haven't personally tried with vertical scroll, but for me it does not work with left and middle button click. Right click is OK.
What I was talking about is that if you assign Switch virtual desktops to vertical scroll, you can scroll through the windows. When assigning switch windows it does nothing and not cycle through windows. But this can also be by design, well since a restoring maximizing window would interfere with that. But scrolling should at least trigger the same menu as when clicking the middle button.
it's not by design... it's code I forgot to finish, apparently. :) void SwitchWindow::wheelEvent(QGraphicsSceneWheelEvent *) { //TODO somehow find the "next" or "previous" window //without changing hte window order (don't want to always go between two windows) } it sounds like I wanted behaviour like alt-tab, but I'm not sure that would be possible with just wheel events. Is anyone interested in working on this? :)
