Description Sebastian 2010-02-10 19:29:00 UTC

Version:           0.9.1 (using KDE 4.3.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

When you hit Alt+Enter in Okulars presentation mode you get the normal list of opened windows but switching is not possible or at least really buggy in most cases. It's hard to describe but simple to reproduce.

I'm not sure if there is a good solution for this. Probably Okular should simply fall back into it's normal window mode.

I'm using current openSuse 11.2. Compositing is on.

This is not a default Okular keyboard shortcut.
What does Alt+Enter do? It is a KWin effect? An hotkey running some command?

"simple to reproduce" means nothing, switching back and forth the presentation mode window to another window works fine.
Please be more specific: what do you see? Do you have a screenshot showing the issue?

?? nonsense

I'm sorry, I meant Alt+Tab and the default KWin application switching. But I'm afraid it's hard for me to describe it. Sometimes I dont see the preview list of opened windows, sometimes switching to another application doesn't work. And the desktop is flickering very often. I hope you can reproduce that...

Window switching is a window manager issue (KWin), reassigning then.
