I've more or less made it a habit to work on Leap42.1 for at least 2 hours a week. For testing (also my patience). Does anyone have an issue with alt-tab only "sort of" working? Sometimes it is ignored, sometimes I have to try three times.

I tried this here on my lenovo laptop with Leap 42.1 standard edition. I guess there are two first things you can do as here that works perfectly (at least if your aim is to open a kind of sidebar with which you can conveniently change between open applications. a) you may create a fresh user (if this is a migration) b) you may try another keyboard or set precisely the keyboard you use in kde (provided you are using KDE). c) check if you have attributed in another application that shortcut. I personally would go for a non well working key of the keyboard or for a problem with the cable see the usb hub you are using. So: "works for me" here. Maybe you should share a tiny bit more information about you set-up? I forgot if this is a very recent install, check if the indexing is still running as that can give for the first day some curious issues with the resources (freezing / hopping cursors, non reactive keyboard. So you could try to just switch it off to see if it is this and in case leave it one night working, then problems are over (had this on one machine with an enormous number of small files). --- Mail & Cloud Made in Germany mit 3 GB Speicher! https://email.freenet.de/mail/Uebersicht?epid=e9900000450 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Well, kind of - with Alt-Tab I want a list of my currently open windows to appear in the middle of the screen, which I can navigate up and down with alt-tab and alt-shift-tab. I use the "compact" task-switcher view.
a) you may create a fresh user (if this is a migration)
It is a dedicated Leap42.1 test system.
b) you may try another keyboard or set precisely the keyboard you use in kde (provided you are using KDE).
Yes, I'm using KDE, I should have mentioned that.
c) check if you have attributed in another application that shortcut. I personally would go for a non well working key of the keyboard or for a problem with the cable see the usb hub you are using.
No USB hub involved, it might even be a PS2 keyboard. Hmm, could be hardware, I'll try out some other keyboards.
So: "works for me" here. Maybe you should share a tiny bit more information about you set-up?
Well, not much to say - it's a plain HP desktop machine, with vanilla Leap42.1. It's a plain office config, it should "just work". When alt-tab doesn't work, I sometimes observe the cursor in a console window blinking.
I forgot if this is a very recent install, check if the indexing is still running as that can give for the first day some curious issues with the resources (freezing / hopping cursors, non reactive keyboard.
It was installed when Leap421 was out, then fed a steady stream of updates since. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (24.1°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
