bug 217989 is about alt-shift-tab moving forward instead of backwards and it's fixed on jaunty, the latest metacity package that was upload to intrepid was in 2008-09-22 there's no way to metacity being the faulty here, could you try with another new user created on your system? thanks. |

Hopefully gnome-control-center is the right place for bugs with the GNOME keyboard settings. |

description |
Recently, Alt-Shift-Tab stopped working. It used to cycle between windows in reverse order, but now it does nothing.
This is in Metacity (GNOME with visual effects disabled).
Similar to this (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/150702), but that's for Compiz.
Maybe the fix for that even broke this?
Can't remember when it was working.
Registry:
/apps/metacity/global_keybindings has:
switch_windows = <Alt>Tab
switch_windows_backward = <Shift><Alt>Tab
Keyboard Shortcuts:
Move between windows with popup = Alt+Tab
(no obvious configuration item for move between windows backward) |
If Alt-Shift is used to switch between keyboard layouts (System->Preferences->Keyboard->Layouts->Other Options...->Layout Switching, Alt+Shift change layout.), no other shortcuts including Alt-Shift can be used, such as Alt-Shift-Tab to cycle between windows backwards.
Try Alt-Shift-Tab without the above setting enabled and then with it enabled. You'll want at least three windows open to make the effect obvious.
Try running xev when you press Alt-Shift-Tab, you'll see it sends the ISO_Prev_Group keysym before the Tab key can even be pressed, rather than Alt_L, Shift_L, Tab.
In Windows, Alt-Shift-Tab still switches windows backwards with a similar setting enabled. |
