Description Steve 2008-12-23 00:42:59 UTC 
Currently, the Alt-Tab popup will only show the applications open in the workspace you are viewing. There needs to be a way of showing all applications in all workspaces.
Comment 1 John Stowers 2008-12-23 21:20:34 UTC 
I agree. It is a shame that ctrl+alt+tab and shift+alt+tab keybindings are already taken, making this option mutually exclusive with the existing behavior.
Comment 2 Steve 2009-03-17 12:14:55 UTC 
This doesn't require another set of hotkeys. Simply having a setting so you can change the view would suffice. The setting justs needs to be accessible from the Config Editor.

I note there is a bug in bug 577699.
Comment 4 Jens Petersen 2009-08-25 03:27:34 UTC 
ugh, a patch
Comment 5 Thomas Thurman 2010-01-22 18:02:57 UTC 
This is a dupe of bug 143511, since the window list can be toggled to do this.
