--- Comment #2 from Rickard Westman <rwest...@bredband.net> --- I had the two actions bound to function keys without a modifier, and then it worked in the weird asymmetric way I described. It doesn't matter if it's a brief key press or a long one - a long one for the forward cycle will just flicker quickly between two of the windows. With the Alt modifier added to the forward binding, it works as you describe. But when the Alt modifier is added to the backward binding, there is now another weird asymmetry: I can walk through the windows in the forward direction with the Alt key down, but for the backward direction I have to lift the Alt key between every step, otherwise it's just stuck on one window. So it only works sensibly when the forward key binding has an Alt modifier, and the reverse binding doesn't. Whether you use Alt modifiers for both, or for none, the user experience is bad. I think it would be much better if the actions simply did the thing their name says, with the reverse action doing exactly the same thing as the forward action but in reverse. An action to toggle between the last two windows might be nice, but there is nothing in the action name suggesting this function. And the name absolutely doesn't say that this is the *only* thing the action can do unless you bind it with an Alt modifier. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
