Title:
alt-tab - cursor keys to navigate switcher are counter-intuitive
Status in Ayatana Design:
Fix Committed
Status in Unity:
Fix Committed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
if I have two windows of a particular application type in the alt-tab
switcher displayed vertically I alt tab to the type of application I
want then I want to press down to go to the lower one when focus is on
the top one. I actually have to press right. If I press left
(expecting right and left to be equivalent when they are supposed to
mean "down") then I go to the previous kind of application. If I then
realise my error and press right twice (once to undo the unintentional
left, and once to go down to the application window I am aiming for)
then I overshoot and go to the kind of application that is in the
switcher to the right of the one I am trying to get to. Then I have to
go left again, to get on the correct type of application. Down to
expand the icons and right to go down to get to the window I have been
trying to get to all along.

Desired solution:
------
First diagram for purpose of explaining desired solution when a app
has 3 windows open:
------- -------
| A | | B |
------- -------
-------
| C |
-------
When a Alt+Tab or Alt+` window spread is open:
- if window A if focused pressing the UP cursor key should close the
spread
- if window A if focused pressing the DOWN cursor key should shift the
focus to window C
- if window A if focused pressing the RIGHT cursor key should shift
the focus to window B
- if window B if focused pressing the UP cursor key should shift the
focus to window A
- if window B if focused pressing the DOWN cursor key should shift the
focus to window C
