Author here.
I'm familiar with this. I have rebinded these, but basically I use them everyday for tab switching, for example within 1 chrome window, of within 1 terminal window.
The reason I made this window-switcher is that sometimes I have something I know I opened a while ago, but I don't want to think about which app holds it, then use the macOS app-switcher (command-tab) to switch to that app, then select the tab/window (with the mouse, or by cycling alt-`).
I want a big mosaic with my windows, and instantly identify and focus on that window I remember the visual traits of.
macOS offers exposé for that purpose, but it is unfortunately not keyboard operable. Also I prefer the Windows approach of having a the thumbnails on a timeline so my eyes have some references instead of scanning the whole screen every time with exposé.
- pazimzadeh 7y agoI love your app, but unfortunately Control+Tab is the same shortcut used system-wide to move between tabs. Could you add the ability to choose a custom shortcut?
- savolai 7y ago+1 for this. Now my browser experience is broken. Or is there a way to remap tab switching shortcut in firefox? Seems silly to do that though. Actually, alt+tab seems to do nothing on my macOS. Why not use that? I'd actually have the same shortcuts as on windows, which I also use. I'd also love to adjust the delay. Seems very slow now. Otherwise, this is beautiful.
- pazimzadeh 7y agoAlt+tab would be amazing.
- monting 7y ago>macOS offers exposé for that purpose, but it is unfortunately not keyboard operable. Agree with this. Ctrl + ↑ triggers exposé. But the windows cannot be selected with the keyboard, unlike Ctrl + ↓, which triggers exposé(?) within the current app, and one can select a window using arrow keys.
