iirc, OSX behaves in the exact same way as Ubuntu. Alt-Tab, to switch between applications, and Alt-something to switch between windows of an application. I could be wrong though, it's been over a year since I used OSX now...
- silon3 14y agoThis is where Alt+Tab in Ubuntu/Gnome was just fine before and the new OSX emulation has ruined it for me. I've switched to XFCE.
- mike-cardwell 14y agoHmm, maybe the reason I like Unity is because my previous machine was a Mac and everything just makes sense. I guess if you're coming from Windows, you're going to get annoyed with certain things, but only the same things you'd get annoyed with if you were moving to OSX.
- one-man-bucket 14y agoI couldn't stand Unity either, and for me it was more an issue of coming from an earlier version of Ubuntu (gnome).
- tomrod 14y agoFair enough. I miss my CompizFusion window switchers too (as the default).
- chao- 14y agoAre you serious? If that's true I owe you a huge "Thank You!" Every time I have to put my hands on a friend's Mac (to show/help/diagnose something) the single most frustrating issue is trying to alt-tab between multiple windows within an application (mostly browsers). I do it, and instead it goes to another application. I have asked every single one of them for such a hotkey get blank stares, and reluctantly use mouse instead. All of my Google-Fu never helped much either. While we're on the topic, is there a hotkey to toggle maximize/restore of a window in OS X? I was impressed with the way Windows 7 handled it, so much so that I've emulated it in all of my various Linux configurations.
