Description Dima Ryazanov 2009-03-18 08:02:07 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Solaris Packages

Open Keyboard & Mouse settings, select the "kwin" component, and set Meta-Tab and Meta-Shift-Tab as the shortcuts for walking through windows, normal and reverse. (By "Meta", I mean, "Super", but that's what KDE displays when I type it.)

Now, when you press Meta-Tab, it immediately switches to another window, without even displaying the list; pressing it again switches back to the old window.
Meta-Shift-Tab doesn't do anything at all.

You need to restart KWin before the change takes affect. Alt+F2 -> `kwin --replace`.
