Ubuntu supports a shortcut to switch windows Ctrl+Tab
, but it allows you to move through apps in one direction only. Direction depends on whether initially Ctrl+Tab
or Ctrl+Shift+Tab
was pressed.
Ctrl+Tab
will move forwards, but pressingShift
while moving forward doesn't change the direction, it still goes forwards unlikeWindows
default behaviour.Ctrl+Shift+Tab
will move backwards, but ifShift
is released while moving backwards the menu will disappear.
Is there a way to configure Ubuntu so that you could go backwards and forwards without running the menu twice?
