Alt+tab overloaded

[developer-si]

Hey all!

I overloaded the Alt+tab key shortcut in Desktop Effects - System settings with the Present Windows Window Management effect. Now I want set back to the default but don't know how. If I enable Box, Cover or Flip Switch (all use Alt+tab), it doesn't work for Alt+tab. And the settings for those effects doesn't provide custom key combination.

Thanks for further help.

Greetings

What happens if you change
K -> System Settings -> Desktop ->Desktop Effects -> General tab -> Effect for window switching?

shunk, thanks for the nice hint but unfortunately this doesn't solve the isue. I tried all otpions provided there.

sithlord48, could you tell me where, please? I tried also in System setings->Keyboard & Mouse but there's nothing about Alt+tab short cut.

Re: Alt+tab overloaded

K -> System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Global Keyboard Shortcuts

select KWin
scroll down to "Walk through windows"
Change Alt+Tab to whatever

K-menu-> system settings -> desktop ->Desktop Effects -> all effects

look in the window management section (towards bottom of list) and change the keyboard shortcuts, for Box Switch,Cover Switch, Present Windows & Filp Switch.

if you set more then one the same shortcut (i.e alt+tab) and have them enabled you will get no effect on that press because of the binding confilct.

sithlord48, I have enabled only Cover Switch. But even if I want to change the key shortcut for Cover, Box and Flip Switch I can't because there's no option. For Present Windows effect I have the following short cuts set: Ctrl+F10 (all desktops), Alt+1 (current desktop).

Re: Alt+tab overloaded

i am sorry i thought you set them all to the same binding.
check skunk's suggestion of Global keyboard shortcuts see if that helps
