Disable Built-in Alt+Tab Functionality

Open moses-bowman opened this issue 6 years ago • 6 comments

Whenever I press the shortcut keys quickly, the app fires Alt + Tab. The only way for Switcheroo to appear is by pressing and holding Alt and pressing the second key ` then releasing Alt.

How do I disable the app's native alt+tab functionality? I want Switcheroo to immediately appear.

Would like to see this implemented as well.

In the Options one can uncheck "Automatically switch window when releasing Alt + Tab".

@elig0n I already have that option unchecked.

if the shortcut key that is defined for you is Alt+Tab you must use Ctrl+Alt+Tab to have Switcheroo open and hang there waiting for your input, if that's what you mean

My shortcut key is defined as Alt + ` Firing the shortcut key too quickly does Alt+Tab instead of showing Switcheroo. This is what I want to be disabled.

I've created pull request #128 to fix this, but as the maintainer is unresponsive for a long time don't count on it being incorporated any time soon.
