Description msnkipa 2010-10-01 11:45:43 UTC 
Version:           4.5 (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

Alt+Tab switches only between windows on the current desktop, I can`t find the way to configure this behaviour. I use roundabout effect to switch windows.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Thomas Lübking 2010-10-01 16:51:38 UTC 
open "kcmshell4 kwintabbox" (it's somewhere in systemsettings or kwin configuration as well)
In the "general" group, change the entry of the "lilst windows" combobox, try "all desktops"

please notice that this is a bug tracker and not a userhelp forum -> please use sth. at http://forum.kde.org/ for "i don't know howto..." questions :-)
Comment 2 msnkipa 2010-10-01 18:05:55 UTC 
Thanks!

PS: Notice that when user can`t find such simply configuration option, it is a real bug in the application ergonomics, isn`t it?

No it isn't as the configuration option can be found by alt+f2 or directly in 
systemsettings and searching for Alt+Tab, or just tab or switch or many more 
possible keywords. And in the interface itself it's IMHO more than obvious 
which dropdown is to change.
