When I am navigating through windows with arrow keys I have to *shudder* think about it. Navigating with arrow keys is the most natural way of moving through presented windows with keyboard but when using only eg. Right I am getting to right border of screen and it stops there. Effect should create some logical rows and columns of windows and when coming across end of such row or column should jump to next one. With such navigation it should be possible to go through all windows by pressing only one arrow key. 721718 1 lucas 2009-02-24 02:39:52 +0000 Keyboard navigation in native layout mode does require some improvements but unfortunately making a fake grid won't work in all situations either. The best I can come up with is the one used in FVWM, an implementation can be seen in this script: http://blogs.gnome.org/metacity/2009/01/30/you-can-switch-in-a-direction/ 722008 2 mikmach 2009-02-24 17:48:08 +0000 OK, full grid is hard but what about linearization? Alt+Tab does something like that. 2121702 3 notmart 2022-05-06 11:37:59 +0000 Git commit ae1937badc097a864ecfc62e79e7a3899c3be572 by Marco Martin. Committed on 06/05/2022 at 11:37.
