application-switcher

Im using the Static Application Switcher to configure my ALT + TAB to cycle trough all applications not grouped. So far so good.

Then I press Super + D to "hide all normal windows" (show desktop). This setting is from Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Navigation. This also works

BUT

After hide all normal windows has been activated and I press ALT + TAB nothing comes up. I suspect they have been hidden so well that the Application Switcher does not longer sees them.

Anyone know if this can be fixed trough settings somewhere?

Compare the two side-by-side: I've seen a couple of questions addressing issues like this… >>> More
