Hi, Since my upgrade to KDE 3.5.2 I see that ALT-TAB is listing only windows for the current virtual desktop. I have eight desktops and tend to keep a single application in each, most of the time. To make ALT-TAB useful, I need to reinstate the option I had before, which was to have all windows on all desktops presented in the ALT-TAB window switcher. I cannot find that option in the maze of settings that is the KDE control center. I thought it was the "Traverse windows on all desktops" option in the "Focus" tab in the "Window Behavior" subsection of the "Desktop" settings section, but even when enabled, the behavior I had before does not result. Can someone help me reinstate ALT-TAB switching across all desktops? Thanks. Randall Schulz

Doesn't work for me either. You could try using Ctrl-Tab instead. -- Steve Boddy

KControl->Configure Panel->Taskbar->Show windows from all desktops, check.
There is no such configuration option. There is only the option I mentioned:

... and it has no effect.

Nope.
