Application Switcher doesn't work.

[rogeorgie]

It seems like it just doesn't for some reason? At least for me. It doesn't bring up cmd+tab window or switches between applications.

Not really a big issue, the app runs great otherwise. Thank you very much Mr. Kollasch :)

Hey @rogeorgie, This line is supposed to open the app switcher: https://github.com/aaronkollasch/jitouch/blob/96d199b110cf0919bc6363c5b37bce2b5f2fc63a/jitouch/Jitouch/Gesture.m#L842

However, the System's Dock.app no longer responds to com.apple.appswitcher.awake.

It's possible we could try sending a cmd+tab to open the switcher, but that would be less consistent if people have different shortcuts bound. Also, the cmd key would probably need to be held down until you wanted to exit the app switcher - it's hard to know how long that should be, and it could lead to unexpected keyboard shortcuts being pressed.

So I'm not sure what the best fix would be.

Thank you for your reply.
I wish I knew more about coding to contribute to this issue. Meanwhile I'm gonna test this as a temporarily workaround (from the user you mentioned).

Sounds good. Looks like they took the key simulation approach.
